(a) Water flows by gravity from one lake to another as illus-
trated; the surface levels of the lakes differ by an eleva-
tion of h= 50 ft. If the volumetric flow rate is steady at
Q = 80 gallons per minute, what is the associated loss
of available energy?
(b) A pump is to be installed to pump the water from the
lower lake to the upper lake with the same flow rate
as above (Q = 80 gpm). If the amount of energy loss
is assumed to be the same as in part (a), how much
mechanical power must be supplied by the pump?
Answer: (a) loss = 1600 ft-lb/slug, (b) Wpump = 2.0

After exiting from the pump,the water runs through a 2 m horizontal length of pipe, a fully-open gate valve, another 2 mhorizontal run, a 90º bend, 0.5 m vertical rise, 90º bend, 4 m horizontal run, 90º bend, 1.5 m verticalrise, 90º bend, 2 m horizontal run, half-open globe valve, 6 m horizontal run, 90º bend, 4 m verticalrise, 90º bend, 4.5 m horizontal run, 90º bend, 4 m vertical rise, 90º bend, 9 m horizontal run, fully-open gate valve, 1 m horizontal run then, finally, entry into a tank containing 10 m of liquid. Point2 is the liquid surface in the tank, which is open to atmosphere.
