Question
In the context of a sewer system, your objective is to find the optimal slope (SS) of a pipe to meet a design flow rate (QdQd) and a maximum allowed flow depth percentage (y/Dy/D). Utilize the flow velocity equation: V = -2 * SQRT(8 * g * R * S) * LOG10((ks / (14.8 * R)) + (2.51 * μ / (4 * ρ * R * SQRT(8 * g * R * S)))
Given:
- Design flow rate (QdQd): 4.12 m³/s
- Pipe diameter (DD): 1 m
- Pipe roughness (ksks): 1.50E-06 m
- Maximum flow depth percentage (y/Dy/D): 85%
- Fluid density (ρρ): 999.1 kg/m³
- Fluid viscosity (μμ): 1.14E-03 Pa·s
- Acceleration due to gravity (gg): 9.81 m/s²

- Hi, please could someone show me how U2 = 1.98m/s. This is the correct answer but i've tried a few methods and can't quite get there! Any notes on the method alongside calculation would be great :) The two pipes are parallel, Kexit =1 for pipe 1 and pipe 2, entry losses can be ignored.arrow_forwardProblem 2: (a) A pump curve for a pump running at 800 rpm is given by h, =20–4713 Q² , where h, is in meters and Q in cms. What will be the pump curve for the same pump running at 1200 rpm? (b) Find the discharge and head for the pump that is running at 1100 rpm, when the same pump running at 1600 rpm produces head of 75 ft and discharge of 7000 gpm (part (b), is not related to part (a) in any way).arrow_forwardDetermine the size in ft of a circular vitrified pipe sewer which will be used to discharge 15 cfs when flowing full on a length of 956 ft, with a fall of 4.2 ft. Use n = 0.015 Round your answer to 2 decimal places.arrow_forward
- (b). Figure 1 shows a reticulation system. Estimate the flow rate in each pipeline using Hardy-Cross Method and Hazen-William formula up to two iterations. Adopt Hazen-William coefficient, C, as 100. The lengths and diameters for pipes AB, BC, CD, and AD are as follows: Pipe AB: length = 950 m and diameter = 250 mm Pipe BC: length = 750 m and diameter = 200 mm Pipe CD: length = 750 m and diameter = 200 mm Pipe AD: length = 900 m and diameter = 250 mm 40 L/s 40 L/s C B D Figure 1: Reticulation system 50 L/s 130 L/sarrow_forwardProblem 2: Manometer and Pipe S = 0.8 300 mm dia Water flows past a manometer as shown. The manometer fluid is oil with s = 0.8. If the manometer reading Rm= h = 0.12 m, what is the water velocity at the centerline of the pipe?arrow_forwardWater is flowing in a rectangular channel with a base of 4.0 ft. The velocity gradient from the bottom of the channel to the water surface is given by the equation: v=3.5y^0.6 Where y is the distance from the bottom of the channel. The total depth of the flow in the channel is 3.0ft. a) Graph the velocity profile from the bottom of the channel to the water surface. B) Calculate the flow rate by integration. The first step is to draw a cross-section of channel and on that cross-section, Draw on your figure an elemental area DA that you will then ise in the equation: Q=integral V.dAarrow_forward
