4.2, there is friction in the piping, which means that an additional pressure equivalent to a height of 100 m is needed to pump the water from the bottom tank to the top tank. What is the minimum power required when accounting for friction? By what percentage has friction increased the minimum power required? Remember to show your calculations.

For a pumper truck pumping water to a fire, the back pressure is the additional pressure on the pump caused by the height of the nozzle. (Another way of thinking of back pressure is as the minimum pressure the pumper must produce in order to make water flow out the end of the nozzle.) Consider a pumper at street level pumping water through a hose to firefighters on the top of the ninth floor of a building. If each floor is 16 feet high, what is the head of water at the mouth of the nozzle?
4. A centrifugal pump delivers 1500 L/min of water from an initial pressure of 156 kPa to a final pressure of 328 kPa. The area of the inlet pipe is 315 cm² and the area of the discharge pipe is 80 cm?. Solve for the power input to the pump, kW.
Consider a hydraulic jack being used in a car repair shop, as in Fig. The pistons have an area of A1 = 0.8 cm2 and A2 = 0.04 m2. Hydraulic oil with a specific gravity of 0.870 is pumped in as the small piston on the left side is pushed up and down, slowly raising the larger piston on the right side. A car that weighs 13,000 N is to be jacked up. (a) At the beginning, when both pistons are at the same elevation (h = 0), calculate the force F1 in newtons required to hold the weight of the car. (b) Repeat the calculation after the car has been lifted two meters (h = 2 m). Compare and discuss
2. A pump draws water from a lake delivered to a height of 50 meters above the lake and encounters 15 meters of headloss. Determine the pump power requirement in Kilo-Watts to deliver a constant supply of 500 Liters per second? The correct answer has a margin of 1 from exact answer. Velocity head is neglected.
A centrifugal pump delivers 60 litres of water per second to a tank situated at a height of 20 metres. If the overall efficieney of the pump is 70%, find the power required for the pump. (Ans. 16-8 kW) 1.
Consider Fig. 1, the tank (with volume of 50 m3) must be filled up with water within 5 minutes. Take L1 and L2 as 5.2 m and 2.2 mrespectively: (a) determine the pumping power requirement, by assuming your own materials for the pipe of L1 and L2; (b) propose the details of the pump design (thickness of the pump etc), assuming that the pump is a vane pump while the volumetric efficiency of the pump is 0.95;
1. As a junior city engineer of a municipality, you are tasked to design the specifications of the pump with 3650 cu.m/day. The water source in the municipality is from an open reservoir and will supply to a pressure tank that will distribute to the municipality. open 4l Pressure reservoir Tank 70 m 15 m Pump Determine the following specifications of the pump and piping system (assume fluid stagnation at the pump). Velocity head at pt.1 to 2 if the diameter of the pipe is a.) 200 mm b.) Suction pressure of the pump in kPa (Pressure at pt. 2). c.) Velocíty head at pt.3 to 4 if the diameter of the pipe is 150 mm d.) Discharge pressure of the pump in kPa (Pressure at pt. 4). Assume atmospheric pressure at the pump. If an air vent is installed at the pipe just right before the pressure tank with diameter of 20 mm, what is the velocity of discharge in m/s? The height of the pressure tank is 12 m, what is the flowrate in cu.m/hr at pt.5 if the diameter of the pipe is 150 mm? e.) f.)
A large container filled with water and uncovered for use in fighting fires in an ethylene production plant. Water from this tank is pumped into the nozzle when needed use. This fire suppression system is designed to be able to transmit 1890 L/min of water at a pressure of 15 bar (relative pressure). If we ignore the difference in height between the water level in the tank and pump, there is no change in diameter of pipe and nozzle, pump efficiency is 70%. Ask how much work (hp) is required to the pump to achieve the desired pressure and flow would like?
For the single pump-pipe system below, what will be the changes for the operating point if we increase the pipe size but decrease the shaft speed of the pump? EB H₂ O The operating point will remain the same. O The operating point will occur either at a higher discharge or at a lower discharge, depending on the specific influence of each change. O The operating point will occur at a higher discharge. O The operating point will occur at a lower discharge.
The velocity of water and pressure at the suction side of a pump is 4m/s and 90kPa respectively. If the velocity of water is 8m/s and the pressure is 140kPa on the discharge side of a pump, what is the head added by the pump?
Completely solve and box the final answers. Write legibly Brake Horsepower of Centrifugal Pump.
