  1. Select the pump with the highest efficiency from Figures 5.23 and 5.24 in your book based on the following conditions. A 1,500 m-long, 15-cm diameter pipeline ( f = 0.02) connects two reser- voirs (elevation difference of 35 m). Minor losses include entrance, exit, and a globe valve. The design flow is 20 L/s. Determine the speed, discharge, head, and efficiency for the selected pump.

A pump needs to move water from a lower reservoir to an upper reservoir at a rate of 600 cfs through a 9,000 ft long, 6-ft diameter pipeline (f = 0.03). For a 1,500 ft change in water surface elevation between the lower and upper reservoirs, compute the needed power input to the pump assuming a pump efficiency of 75% and that minor losses are negligible. In addition, compute the needed power input to the corresponding motor assuming the motor...

A steel pipeline conveys water (density 1000 kg/m3 , bulk modulus 2.05x109 N/m2 ) from an upper to a lower reservoir the pipeline material is steel with Young’s modulus 210x109 N/m2 . It is 611 m long, has an internal diameter 1.1m, wall thickness 25 mm and surface roughness 0.68 mm. The flow is controlled by a valve located at the entrance to the lower reservoir, 211 m below the surface level in the upper reservoir. (a) Under steady flow...
