Question
The outflow rate (O) and storage (S) for the emergency spillway are linearly related as O = S/10,000. Where, O and
S are respectively in m3/s and m3
. Based on the assumption that at the beginning (i.e., time = 0.0 hour), the storage,
the inflow rate, and the outflow rate are all equal to zero; determine the outflow rate from the reservoir at the end
of 2 hours period if the inflow rate is 500 m3/s.

Adischarge valve at the downstream end is used to control flow; when this valve is fully open,the measured discharge in the pipeline is 920 L/s under the naturally available head difference.(a) Assuming fully developed turbulent flow and that all other local losses are negligible,estimate the loss coefficient k for the fully open valve (assume f = 0.015).(b) Because of increasing urban development, the flow under the natural head difference isconsidered to be inadequate and it is proposed to increase this flow with pumping. The head-capacity curve for the pump can be approximated by the equation H = 8 – 3.5Q2 in which H isthe total dynamic head on the pump (in m) and Q is the discharge (in m3/s). What is thedischarge that can now be obtained from the system where the pump is installed at a cross-section of the pipeline?arrow_forward
