(Q1) A small reservoir based plant is planned in a remote location to supply water into a micro turbine to generate electricity. The height of water level in reservoir is 10 m. The micro turbine is to be located at ground level at a distance of 200 m from the reservoir. To generate sufficient power, the minimum head (total head) required at the turbine inlet is 9 m with the flow rate of 0.4 m3/s. The loss coefficient (KL) at the inlet to the pipe from reservoir is calculated as 0.4. Determine the minimum diameter of the cast iron pipe (roughness, e = 0.26 mm) required for the proposed design. Take following properties of the fluid: density = 1000 kg/m³, viscosity = 0.001 kg/m-s. Draw hydraulic grade line (HGL) and energy grade line (EGL).

A pump delivers water between a reservoir and a water tank. The surface waterelevation of the water tank is 20m higher. The suction side contains an entrance strainer (Ks=2.5), and50m of PVC pipe that is 25cm in diameter. The discharge side includes a 200m long PVC pipe, 25 cmin diameter, and a gate valve. The net positive suction head (NPSH) is 7.5m, and the design discharge is150L/s. Determine the allowable elevation difference between the pump and the reservoir water surface,z s, to avoid cavitation. Assume a kinematic viscosity of 1x10-6m 2 /s and a specific weight of 9.79kN/m 3 .

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.

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 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?
