If the head loss in the piping is 2 m of water, determine the discharge rate of the supply of water to the roof top. Ans: 0.00986 m3/s or 9.86L/s
In a pumping system handling water, the level in the suction tank is 3.2m below the pump shaft centerline; and the level in the
discharge tank is 21m above the pump shaft centerline. The iniet piping is 7.6cm in diameter and together with its valves fittings is
equivalent to 26m straight pipe. The discharge line, 6.35 cm in diameter, with its valves and fittings is equivalent to 72 m straight
pipe. If the motor delivers 7.1 kW to the pump shaft, what is the pump efficiency for discharge rate of 12.63 Ips? Assume f = 0.023

The liquid is to be pumped via a steel pipeline system at the rate of 40 gallons per minute. The pipeline system consists of a 4-in. nominal diameter suction pipe that is 20 m long and has a fully open diaphragm valve in it while the discharge pipe is a 1-in. nominal diameter pipe that is 30 m long and has two 90 regular threaded elbows in it.
