Chapter 12, Problem 12.6PP

For the system shown in Fig. 12.11 the pressure at A is maintained constant at 20 psig. The total volume flow rate exiting from the pipe at B depends on which valves are open or closed. Use K   = 0.9 for each elbow, but neglect the energy losses in the tees. Also, because the length of each branch is short, neglect pipe friction losses. The steel pipe in branch 1 is 2-in Schedule

40, and branch 2 is 4-in Schedule 40. Calculate the volume flow rate of water for each of the following conditions:

  1. Both valves open.

  • Valve in branch 2 only open.
  • Valve in branch 1 only open.
  • Blurred answer

    Problem #4 If the pressure difference between points 1 and 2 is 25 psi, what will be the flow rate? The pipes are galvanized iron with 0.0005 ft. Take v = 1.06 × 10−5 ft²/s and neglect Kis = minor losses. 10 in. dia 1. 2000 ft, 8 in. dia A B 1600 ft, 6 in. dia с 2. 800 ft, 10 in. dia-
    Compute points on the velocity profile from the pipe wall to the centerline of a 3/4-in Type K copper tube if the volume flow rate of water at 60'F is Q 0.5 gal/min. Use increments of 0.05 in and include the velocity at the centerline.   please be through and provide all calculus and graphs/tables
    a. Solve for the two (2) atmospheric condition, Pn1 & Pn2 at 32.68 0C and 41.12 °C. b. Calculate the diameter of the pipe at suction side if the velocity of air flow is 22.82 m/s with flow rate of 2.96 m³ /second. c. Compute the velocity head at suction side if the velocity is 33.68 m/sec.
