Question
Problem: A pump draws water through a 300-mm diameter cast iron pipe, 15 m long from a reservoir
in which the water surface is 4.5 m higher than the pump and discharges through a 250-mm diameter
cast iron, 75 m long, to an elevated tank in which the water surface is 60 m higher than the pump.
Considering f = 0.02 and the coefficients for minor head losses (kentrance = 0.5,
kpend = 0.35, and kexit = 0.5), compute the following:
a. Pressure head at the suction side of the pump
b. Pressure head at the discharge side of the pump
c. Horsepower output of the pump
Note: generally, total minor head losses =E h,m, ; hm, = kentrance
