A simple rainwater collector used for home garden use is show below. It is comprised of an open-air water tank, a "compliant" or flexible tube, and a valve. To avoid overflow, the valve is set to open when the water in the tank reaches a height of 2m. The valve rests on the ground 3m beneath the tank's base. The outlet of the valve is open to atmosphere. c) Assuming inviscid flow, estimate the average velocity of the water flowing through the tube at the moment when the valve automatically opens. Assume that the tank is very large compared to the tube, so that the velocity of the water at the top of the tank is zero. Assume that the valve provides no resistance to flow when opened.

THE PROBLEM IS FROM THE BOOK: ENGINEERING THERMOFLUIDS, M. MASSOUD.
Suppose the pump of Fig. is situated between two large water tanks with their free surfaces open to the atmosphere. Explain qualitatively what would happen to the pump performance curve if a valve in the piping system were changed from 100 percent open to 50 percent open, all else being equal. Repeat for the system curve. What would happen to the operating point—would the volume flow rate at the operating point decrease, increase, or remain the same? Indicate the change on a qualitative plot of H versus V. , and discuss.
As seen in the figure, the vacuum pump provides air flow in an insulated pipe with a cross section of 46,2 mm2. The air moves along a straight line in a room with a pressure of 100,62 kPa and a temperature of 26,2 oC. If the pressure in section 1 is 98,62 kPa and the temperature in section 2 is 16,2 oC; This is Fanno flow. i) Calculate mass flow rate, ii) Calculate at section 1, flow velocity U1, density, Mach number Ma1, Re, f values iii) Calculate at section 2, find the stopping pressure and temperature, Mach number Ma2, U2 velocity, density, mass flow rate iv) Calculate friction coefficient and force on the channel walls between section 1 and 2. Solve the problem by making the necessary assumptions. v) Calculate L1-2 pipe length Cf=0.079Re-0.25 and f=4Cf expressions can also be used. Solve the problem by making the necessary assumptions and drawing the schematic figure. (a=6 and b=2 on the figure)

A) List the devises that used to measure the velocity, pressure, volume flow rate and sketch each of them with equations. 3) A rectangular gate (length 3m, wide Im) inclined at 50 with the horizontal level and hinged at point to the bottom of the tank. The weight of the gate is 9000N; calculate the minimum height of the water (h) in the left side of the gate, which cause to open the gate automatically? WATER WATER
