I need help on this question: According to the question: a) If the pipe connected to the pump inlet has a diameter of 24 mm with length (LCP) of 5 m and Darcy friction factor of 0.03, what would be the actual head rise across the pump for a case where the pump outlet pressure is 200 kPa? The difference in height between pump inlet and outlet is 0.25 m, the tank exit is sharp-edged, and the water level in the tank to the tank exit pipe (HWL) is 2 m. Also, consider that the flow velocity inside the tank is negligible. The value of the actual head rise across the pump is = ? b) What would be the pump motor power if the efficiency is 60%? The value of the pump motor power is = ?
Consider water flowing through a water hose of length of 100 ft, diameter of 3/8 inch, and average surface roughness 5-105 ft. The gage pressure at the hose inlet is 40 psi. The hose contains a ball valve which controls the flow rate. Calculate the mass flow rate of water through the hose with the ball valve completely open and with ball valve 2/3 closed. Hint: Determining the friction factor requires an iterative approach - start the iterations by assuming that the friction factor is equal to 0.01 and perform at least 3 iterations.
A farmer is to pump water at 70°F from a river to a water storage tank nearby using a 125-ft-long, 5-in-diameter plastic pipe with three flanged 90° smooth bends. The water velocity near the river surface is 6 ft/s, and the pipe inlet is placed in the river normal to the flow direction of water to take advantage of the dynamic pressure. The elevation difference between the river and the free surface of the tank is 12 ft. For a flow rate of 1.5 ft3/s and an overall pump efficiency of 70 percent, determine the required electric power input to the pump.
