Problem 5 – 15 A liquid having sp. gr. of 2.0 is flowing in a 50mm diameter pipe. The total head at a given point was found to be 17.5 Joule per Newton. The elevation of the pipe above the datum i ... s 3m and the pressure in the pipe is 65.6 kPa. Compute the velocity of flow and the horsepower in the stream at that point. Solution: Problem 5 – 16 The pump shown draws water from the reservoir A at elevation 10m and lifts it to the reservoir B at elevation 60m. The loss of head from A to 1 is two times the velocity head in the 200mm diameter pipe and the loss of head from 2 to B is ten times the velocity head in the 150mm diameter pipe. Determine the rated horsepower of the pump and pressure heads at 1 and 2 in meters when the discharge is 0.03m3 /sec. Solution: [Show More]
