Chapter 5, Problem 76CP
A 3-rn-high tank filled with water has a discharge valve near the bottom and another near the top. (a) If these two valves are opened, will there be any difference between the discharge velocities of the two water streams? (b) If a hose whose discharge end is left open on the ground is first connected to the lower valve and then to the higher valve, will there be any difference between the discharge rates of water for the two cases? Disregard any frictional effects.

Water with a specific heat of 1 BTU/lbm F is pumped using a 1-hp jet pump from a well that is 20 ft deep into a vented water vessel 160 ft above the ground. In the process, 900 BTU/min of heat is lost from the system. What is the temperature (F) of the water as it enters the vessel if the flow rate of the water is 5 gal/min? Assume the temperature of water in the well is (35 F).
Water at 22oC is pumped from the bottom of a large storage tank where the pressure is 290 kPa gage to a nozzle which is 14.17 m above the tank bottom and discharges to the atmosphere with a velocity in the nozzle of 20.1 m/s. The water flow rate is 50 kg/s. The efficiency of the pump is 77% and 9 kW are furnished to the pump shaft.a. Draw the diagram
b. The friction loss in the pump.
c. The friction loss in the rest of the process.(include principles used)
Pump Horsepower in Brine System. A pump pumps 0.200 ft3/s of brine solution having a density of 1.15 g/cm3 from an open feed tank having a large cross-sectional area. The suction line has an inside diameter of 3.548 in. and the discharge line from the pump a diameter of 2.067 in. The discharge flow goes to an open overhead tank, and the open end of this line is 75 ft above the liquid level in the feed tank. If the friction losses in the piping system are 18.0 ft lbf/lb m, what pressure must the pump develop and what is the horsepower of the pump if the efficiency is 70%? The flow is turbulent.
