Chapter 8, Problem 69CP
Consider two identical 2-m-high open tanks tilled with water on top of a 1-m-high table. The discharge valve of one of the tanks is connected to a hose whose other end is left open on the ground while the other tank does not have a hose connected to its discharge valve. Now the discharge valves of both tanks are opened. Disregarding an frictional loses in the hose, which tank do you think empties completely first? Why?

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
(d) The tank below is cylindrical with a diameter of 10 m. The outlet is a cylindrical
frictionless nozzle, with a diameter 1 m. The top of the tank is open to the atmosphere. When
the level in the tank is 10 m above the centerline of the outlet, using the Bernoulli equation or
otherwise determine how fast the level in the tank falling.

- The drinking water to a village is supplied from a reservoir which is 475 m above and 25 km away from the village. The water is transported from the reservoir to an open-top storage tank in the village via a circular pipe with a diameter of 18 cm and a roughness of 0.15 mm. The population of the village is 1500 people. There are two valves (K=2) and five 90° elbows (K=1.5) along the pipe. Assuming that an average person in the village consumes 225 L/day, determine the power (kW) of the pump needed to transter the water from the reservoir to the storage tank. You can take the density and viscosity of water as 1000 kg/m and 0.001 kg/m s, respectively, and you can neglect the inlet and exit losses and the kinetic energy correction factor effects.arrow_forwardTwo reservoirs are connected by a pipe whose total length is 36 m as shown in Figure 2. From the upper reservoir, the pipe is 250 mm in diameter for a length of 12 m and the remaining 24 m are 125 mm in diameter. The entrance of the pipe is a square-edge inlet and the change of section is sudden. The difference in levels of the water in the two reservoirs is 10 m. The friction coefficient, f, is 0.06 for both pipes and the loss coefficient, K, for sudden contraction is 0.3. Determine the flow rate in the system.
