The pressure in the outlet pipe from the reservoir is 61.3 kPa abs and h =15 m. Because of the rounded entrance to the pipe, the flow is assumed to be irrotational. Under these conditions, what is the velocity at A (Figure below)? Water h V A O VA = 17.16 m/s VA = 13.1 m/s O VA = 19.35 m/s All other answers are wrong
QUESTION 4 Two tanks with a difference in water levels of 180 m are shown in Figure Q4. The tanks are connected by a 64 km long pipe of 600 mm diameter with friction factor f= 0.01i5. () Determine the discharge through the pipe (ii) In order to increase the discharge by 50%, another pipe of the same diameter is to be laid from the lower tank for part of the length and connected to the first pipe.

Consider a pump-pipeline system that delivers flow from reservoir A to B with EA = 100 ft and En = 120 ft. The pipe has a length of L = 2,800 ft, diameter of D= 2 ft, and a Hazen Williams coefficient of CHw = 100. The pump characteristics are tabulated below and minor losses (in feet) accumulate at the rate of 0.01*Q? where Q is the flow in cfs. Estimate the flow rate and the velocity in the pipeline.

Water at 20°C is pumped at a rate of 15 L/s into a reservoir as shown in the Figure below. Between the pump and the reservoir is 150 m of 100 mm diameter PVC pipe, and the water surface elevation in the reservoir is 8 m above the centerline of the inflow pipe. The roughness height of the PVC pipe can be assumed to be negligibly small.

Water is pumped from a supply reservoir to a ductile- iron water-transmission line, as shown in Figure 2.26. The high point of the transmission line is at point A, 1 km downstream of the supply reservoir, and the low point of the transmission line is at point B, 1 km downstream of A. If the flow rate through the pipeline is 1 m3/s, the diameter of the pipe is 750 mm, and the pressure at A is to be 350 kPa, then: (a) estimate the head that must be added by the pump; (b) estimate the power supplied by the pump; and (c) calculate the water pressure at B.
