2. A tank, elevated on a 4-ft high wooden platform is exposed to the atmosphere and the minimum liquid level inside it is 1 m. Water is being pumped from the tank. Determine the NPSH of a pump which is connected to it, handling 220, 500 lb/hr water at 537°R via a 5-in schedule 40 steel pipe, 60 ft long. The suction nozzle of the pump is 0.4m above ground level.

Q.3 A converging-diverging nozzle is supplied by a huge air reservoir. The nozzle has a throat area of 10 cm? and an exit area of 20 cm?. The reservoir conditions are P. = 300 kPa and To = 30 °C. Determine the range of the back pressure over which (a) shocks appear in the nozzle, (b) oblique shocks form at the exit, and (c) expansion waves form. (d) Calculate the mass flow rate through the nozzle for the case in which a normal shock appears at the exit plane.

1. Consider a 1000 MW power plant located in a rural area with 15 ton/day SO2 emissions from a 100 m high stack. The velocity and temperature of the stack gases lead to an effective stack height of 50 m above the physical stack. Estimate the ground level concentration as a function of distance downwind under the following conditions. The emissions are into a clear daytime atmosphere with wind (at 10 m) of 5 m/s. b. The emissions are into a clear nighttime atmosphere with wind (at 10 m) of 2 m/s. The conditions of a. except there is a strong elevated inversion at an altitude of 200 m. a. С.

It is desired to have a laminar flow for the piping system shown below. The fluid flowing in the piping system is air at 70 °C. (Note: You must use the physical data from Perry's Handbook) a) Calculate the maximum allowable bulk velocity in m/s for pipes 1, 2, and 3 that will satisfy the statement above. The velocities obtained must satisfy the continuity equation. b) Calculate the Reynolds number of each pipe using the velocity values obtained earlier. c) Calculate the mass flow rate of the system (in kg/min). 3. 2 12-in. pipe 2-in. pipe 3-in. pipe 1/2-in. pipe

Question 2 A water pump driven by an 800 W electric motor is used to pump water from the ground level to a tank at the rate of 20000 L/hour. Water is being discharged into the tank at 10 meters above the ground; this is the maximum rise this pump can achieve. The water and the ambient temperatures are both 10 °C. The inlet and outlet pipe diameters for the pump are both 8 cm, respectively. Determine: (1)/ The average inlet linear flow velocity of the water; 2) Assuming the efficiency of the electric motor is 95%, calculate the efficieney-of the motor-pump unit; 3) The pressure difference between the inlet and the outlet of the pump.

A water company wants to construct a pumping station, which delivers water from a river source to its large storage tank in the manufacturing plant, which will be used for its process cooling fluid. The proposed line consists of 180 ft on the suction side and 700 ft of the same size on the discharge line. a. Using a 3 in Sch. 40 pipe for the suction side and 4 in Sch. 40 pipe for the discharge side, determine the volumetric flow rate in gal/min that will be delivered to the storage tank.
