Q1. Water is stored in a cylindrical tank and its level is controlled via discharging it to the atmosphere from a pipe with 10 cm diameter. The tank is pressurized above the water with 250 kPa (absolute). If the water level is 2.5 m above outlet, determine the initial volumetric flow rate of water at the outlet pipe. (Frictional effects are negligible. Patm=100 kPa, pwater=1000 kg/m³)

Water at 70°F passes through 0.75-in-internal diameter copper tubes at a rate of 0.4 lbm/s. Determine the pumping power per ft of pipe length required to maintain this flow at the specified rate. Take the density and dynamic viscosity of water at 70°F as p = 62.30 lbm/ft3 and μ = 6.556x10-4 lbm/ft-s. The roughness of copper tubing is 5x10-6 ft. (Round the final answer to four decimal places.) The pumping power per ft of pipe length required to maintain this flow at the specified rate is 0.0318 W (per foot length).

USE EXCEL Water at 20 degrees celsius is to be pumped from a reservoir (ZA=2m) to another reservoir at a higher elevation (ZB=9m) through two 25 m long plastic pipes connected in parallel. The diameters of the two pipes are 3cm and 5cm. Water is to be pumped by a 68 percent efficient motor pump unit that draws 7kw of electric power during operation. The minor losses and the head loss in the pipes that connect the parallel pipes to the two reservoirs are considered to be negligible. Determine the total flow rate between the reservoirs and the flow rates through each of the parallel pipes
