Question
Water flows from Reservoir A to Reservoir B elevations: Elevation A = 120 ft and Elevation B = 100 ft.
Flow is supported by a pump placed right after Reservoir A Pipe length = 12800 ft.
Pipe diameter = 2ft,
Hazen Williams Coefficient, C_HW = 100.
Minor losses are accumulated using the following formula:
hL minor = 0.001Q² [Q in feet ^3/s]
Friction is computed: hL friction = K*Q1.85
where K is the pipe number = -
Pump Characteristics are:
Q[cfs]

35
H_p[ft]
300
273.0
225.5

a. Find Q in [cfs]
b.

(Pipe diamenter 4.87*C_HW1.85)
Draw the EGL and HGL for the system. Be precise when drawing so your graphs represent
relevant aspects of the system, and label points of change. Assume a friction factor f= 0.02;
Kentry = 0.5, kexit 1.0 and that the pump is placed 100 ft down the line when measured
from reservoir A, i.e, Axpump
