The water needs of a small farm are to be met by pumping water from a well that can supply water continuously at a rate of 5 L/s. The water level in the well is 20 m below the around level, and water is to be pumped to large tank on a hill, which is 58 m above the ground level of the well, using 6-cm internal diameter plastic pipes. The required length of piping is measured to be 510 in. and the total minor loss coefficient due to the use of elbows, vanes, etc. is estimated to be 12. Taking the efficiency of the pump to be 75 percent, determine the rated power of the pump that needs to be purchased, in kW. The density and viscosity of water at anticipated operation conditions are taken to be 1000 kgm3 and 0.00131 kg/m.s, respectively. Is it wise to purchase a suitable pump that meets the total power requirements, or is it necessary to also pay particular attention to the large elevation head in this case? Explain. Answer: 6.89kW
