Chapter 3, Problem 27P

The Hazen Williams equation can be used to calculate the pressure drop, Pd(psi/ft of pipe) in pipes due to friction:

P d = 4.52 Q 1.85 / ( C 1.85 d 4.87 )

Where Q is the flow rate (gpm), C is a design coefficient determined by the type of pipe, and d is pipe diameter in inches. Consider a 3.5-in.-diameter steel pipe with C = 120. Calculate the pressure drop in a 1000-ft-long pipe for flow rates of 250, 300, 350, 400, and 450 gpm. To carry out the calculation, first create a five-element vector with the values of the flow rates (250, 300,…). Then use the vector in the formula using element-by-element operations.

To: [Boss's Name] From: Nathaniel D Sain Date: 4/5/2025 Subject: Decision Analysis for Business Scenario Introduction to the Business Scenario Our delivery services business has been experiencing steady growth, leading to an increased demand for faster and more efficient deliveries. To meet this demand, we must decide on the best strategy to expand our fleet. The three possible alternatives under consideration are purchasing new delivery vehicles, leasing vehicles, or partnering with third-party drivers. The decision must account for various external factors, including fuel price fluctuations, demand stability, and competition growth, which we categorize as the states of nature. Each alternative presents unique advantages and challenges, and our goal is to select the most viable option using a structured decision-making approach. Alternatives and States of Nature The three alternatives for fleet expansion were chosen based on their cost implications, operational efficiency, and…
