Question

Transcribed Image Text:EXAMPLE.7.2. A water supply tank is capable of delivering 0.3 m/s of water for
firefighting purposes in a chemical plant. The water supply is to come from a lake, the
elevation of the surface of the lake is 800 m and the elevation of the factory is 852 m from
sea level. The water discharge pipe is located at a depth of 100 m from the surface of the
lake. The frictional losses in the water line to the plant are given by the relation (0.01 m/s?)
L, where L is the length of the pipe line. The water line to the supply tank has an inner
diameter of 0.15 m and a length of 8000 m. How much energy must a pump deliver to the
water. (assume turbulent flow)

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.arrow_forwardA gas turbine power plant with the following specifications: two axial compressor stages, the pressure ratio is 6/1 for each compressor.

A high pressure turbine is used to drive the compressors, and a low pressure turbine drives the generator. The temperature of the gases at entry to the high pressure turbine is 600°C and the gases are reheated to 700°C after expansion in the first turbine. The exhaust gases leaving the low pressure turbine are passed through a heat exchanger to heat the air leaving the high pressure stage compressor. The air inlet temperature to the unit is 20°C. The isentropic efficiency of each turbine stage is 0.95; the heat exchanger thermal ratio is 0.7. A mechanical loss is 5% for both the generator- turbine shaft and the compressor- turbine shaft.
