(a) Two vertical cylindrical tanks of 3.00- meter and 2.00-meter diameter containing water are joined at their base by a pipe of diameter 0.05 meter. This pipe is short enough to be treated as an orifice with a co-efficient of discharge of 0.58. The 3.00-meter tank initially has a level = 6 = 2.00 meter higher than the other. Calculate how long it will take for the level difference to half.
Water is pumped from a reservoir to a pressurized storage tank (P = 150 kPa gauge) atop a building by means of a centrifugal pump. There is a 70-m difference in elevation between the water surface in the reservoir and the end of the discharge line. The piping system consists of 80m of 5" SCH 40 steel pipe containing two 90o elbows, one gate valve, one rotary water meter, and six couplings from the reservoir to the pump; 3" SCH 40 steel pipe for 86m to the tank. The 3" pipe contains two gate valves, four 90o elbows, and ten couplings. It is desired to maintain a flow of water into the tank of 2.4 m3/min. Water temperature is 25oC. If the pump-motor set has efficiency of 65%, what would be the pumping costs be in pesos per day if electricity costs PhP 10.50/kW-hr?
The water needs of a small farm are to be met by pumping water from a well that can supply water continuously at a rate of 50 L/min. The water level in the well is 13 m below the ground level, and water is to be pumped to the farm by a 2-cm internal diameter pipe. The required length of piping is measured to be 20 m, and the total head loss in the piping system is estimated to be 10 m.a) Using Bernoulli equation, determine the pressure difference between the two points (A & B).

6 cm-diameter commercial steel pipeline is used to transport water at 10⁰C from a reservoir to a free discharge point. The pipeline consists of 85 m straight pipe, 2 wide-open gate valves, 1 wide open angle valve, 4 standard 90⁰ elbows, 1 entrance from a reservoir, and 1 free discharge. The elevation of the entrance is 10 m while the elevation of the discharge is 35 m. The inlet pressure is 20 psig and the exit pressure is 0 psig. A pump is installed in the line to move the water. Calculate the pump work (J/kg) so the volumetric flow rate will be Q= 0.01 m3/s.

A new pump is required for the water supply system of a high-rise office building. The system requires 0.06 m³/s of water pumped to a reservoir at the top of the tower 340 m above the street.

The piping is to be commercial steel, the overall length is 20 percent greater than the tower height, and there are fittings every 10 m with loss coefficients of 0.2. Determine the minimum diameter required to keep the average water velocity below 3.5 m/s in the pipe. Calculate the pressure rise required across the pump and estimate the minimum power needed to drive the pump.
