- A piping system is to be installed at place where the pump will transfer the fluid from tank A to tank B. There are two suggested piping designs available to carry the fluid efficiently. Compute and determine which of the available piping arrangement will experience the less pumping powerwith given flow conditions. Discuss the results. Flow conditions are same for both type of designs and given as: Pipe material: stainless steel Volume flow rate: 40 L/sec Assume the working fluid is water at standard atmosphere temperature and both tanks areopen to atmosphere. Pipe inlet is sharp-edged and bends are sharped without vanes. Elevations are as ?? = ?? ? and ?? = ?? ?arrow_forward4) A pump operates at 2000 rpm and delivers 200 gal/min at 90 ft head. The water distribution operator is requested to increase the head and flow in the network due to a leak. He increased the pump speed to 2160 rpm.

- Water at 5°C is to be pumped from the river to the bottom of a water tower. The pump is 5 m above the river (dimension "a" on the diagram below) and is supplied by a 6.00 inch schedule 40 pipe. The tank is 19.5 m above the pump (dimension "b" on the diagram below) and is supplied by a 4 inch schedule 40 pipe. The water level in the tank is 4.3 m above the inlet (dimension "c" on the diagram below). The pump delivers 0.021 m/s. Losses are estimated to be 1.2 m between the river and the pump, and 4.2 m between the pump and the tank.
