1. To model power production in a traditional hydroelectricity unit, we can use the below schematic figure. Water (e= 998 kg/m3, µ = 0.001 kg/m.s) flows from a large tank at elevation 60 m through a cast iron pipe with total length of L diameter 0.1 m. There are three losses associated with sharp-edge entrance, 90° reg- ular elbow and an open globe valve. Outlet of the valve is discharged to atmosphere. The velocity of the water in the pipe is 3 m/s. For minor losses use values for a flanged pipe with diameter of 4". Find the power produced in the turbine in kW 100 m and unit.

PROBLEM 02: Water entering a pump through an 200mm diameter pipe at 27.6 kPa has a flow rate of 0.1 m^3/s. It leaves the pump through a 100mm diameter pipe at 103.4 kPa. Assuming that the suction and discharge sides of the pump are at the same elevation, find the horsepower delivered to the water by the pump (746 watts = 1 HP). Illustrate the problem and show your complete solution.
c) Water is pumped from a deep well (located 20 m underground) to a hilltop reservoir (located at 50 m above ground level). Water is being transferred at a rate of 4800 LPM while the pump consumes 60,000 kW of electric power in the process. Assume that there are no frictional losses in the piping system and the change in kinetic energy between the inlet and outlet of the piping system is negligible. Determine the overall efficiency of the pump-motor setup.
Albert bought a portable device to pump his truck tyres. On the manual, he found out that the device is a single stage, single-acting air compressor. Air delivery for this device is 30 bar at a speed of 1500 rev/min. The atmospheric condition of his location is 87 kPa and 20 ˚C, with a FAD of 0.22 m2 /min. The clearance volume is 4% of the swept volume and the stoke/bore ratio is 1.3/1.Take “n” as 1.3, cp = 1.005 kJ/kg K, cv = 0.718 kJ/kg K Based on pictures below 1 which formula number will be used to evaluate the mass flow rate of air? 2 which formula number will be used to evaluate the delivery volume?
A pump draws water from a reservoir and conveys it to another reservoir 30 m above. The suction pipe is 100 mm in diameter and 10 m long while the delivery pipe is 100 mm in diamter and 150 m long. if the the velocity in the pipe is 3 m/s, the friction factor of the pipe 0.008, and the pump and motor efficiencies are 85 % and 92 %, respectively. Assume height of pump/motor negliglible. Q1. Calculate the gauge pressure at the pump's inlet (at C) (kN/m2) Q2. Calculate the gauge pressure at the pump's outlet (at D) (kN/m2) Q3. Calculate input power to motor (kW)
A flow rate of 3 m'/s of water is available at a height of I 10 m at a project site. Due to losses in the sup- ply line, the head available at the inlet to powerhouse is estimated to be only 101 m of water. The leakage losses in the powerhouse are negligible. Mechanical losses account for 150 kW. Frictional losses in the rotor blades may be taken as 250 kW. The exit velocity of water from the turbines is 4.5 m/s. Calculate the hydraulic, mechanical, and overall efficiencies of the plant. The specific weight of water may be taken as 9810 N/m.
A centrifugal pump must be installed 6 m above the water level in a tank. the bomb will operate at a rate of 0.01 m³/s. The manufacturer suggests a pump with NPSHR at this flow rate of 2.5 m. Neglect friction losses, with the exception of a heat exchanger between the tube inlet and pump suction, which has a loss coefficient Cf = 15. The pipe diameter is 15 cm and the pressure of water vapor at 30°C is 4.246 kPa. Is this pump suitable for the given conditions?
