"Two reservoirs 1200 m apart are connected by a 50-cm smooth concrete pipe. If the two reservoirs have an elevation difference of 5 m, determine the discharge (20 degree C) in the pipe by the Darcy Weisbach equation, (b) the Hazen- Williams equation, (c) the Manning equation. Assume minor losses are negligible and verify your results with computer software."

Answer #1

N.B.- For this solution I have asuumed friction factor, Hazen's constant, Manning's co-efficient according to the given smooth texture and temperature condition. With variation of surface roughness and temperature these assumed values may be different.

Thank you!!!

A pipe system connects two reservoirs whose difference in elevation is 150 ft. The pipe system consists of 1000 ft of 24 inch concrete pipe, branching into 1000 ft of 12 inch concrete pipe and 1200 ft of 18 ich concrete pipe in parallel, which join again to a single 24 inch line 2000 ft long. What would be the flow discharge in each pipe? assume f=0.02 for all pipes and assume that the minor losses can be neglected.

Two interconnected reservoirs have surface areas of 3000 and 1000m^2, respectively. The connecting pipe has a diameter of 0.3m, a length of 10,000m and a Darcy Weisbach coefficient f= 0.025. The initial difference in water surface elevation between the two reservoirs was 120m. Determine the time required for the difference to drop (1)110m, (2) 100m, and (3) 90m. Ignore minor losses.

Two large water reservoirs, of which the water levels differ by 2m,arre 800m apart. Neglect the minor losses and calculate the quantity flowing between the reservoirs in litres per second if they are connected by a single pipe of diameter 200mm for the first 300m and branching for the remaining 500m into two parallel pipes of diameter 100mm and 150mm respectively (f = 0.009).
