The water needs of a small farm are to be met by pumping water from a well that can supply water continuously at a rate of 5 L/s. The water level in the well is 20 m below the ground level, and water is to be pumped to a large tank on a hill, which is 58 m above the ground level of the well, using 6-cm internal diameter plastic pipes. The required length of piping is measured to be...

Problem 2 A 30,000 litre water tank has a 4.30 m internal diameter. It has two outlet pipes, one at the base of the tank and one higher up. The distance between the two outlets means that when the water level is at the height of the upper pipe there is still 8,000 litres of water remaining in the tank for fire-fighting if needed. The top portion of the tank is used for stock drinking water. a) If the tank...

Water is pumped by a motor-pump unit from a lake to a storage tank 17 m above at a rate of 120 L/s. The storage tank is open to the atmosphere. The motor consumes 25 kW of electric power and the motor effciency is 95%. Disregarding any changes in kinetic energy of the water, determine (a) the overall effciency of the pump-motor unit, (b) the effciency of the pump and (c) the shaft power supplied by the motor to the...
