Water is being pumped (at Q) from a reservoir to a nearby storage facility for a local farm. The water level in the reservoir varies throughout the year. When it is considered “full” the change in elevation from the top of the water line to the centerline of the pipe at (2) is h. The pipe is made of welded steel. Assuming there are both major and minor losses, determine the pressure in the pipe at (2). Clearly state the source(s) of minor losses. Use the Haaland and Darcy-Weisbach equations. Flowrate (Q), elevation difference (h), head from pump (hp), pipe length (L), and diameter (D) are given below. State all assumptions. Q =0.54 m^3/s, h =3.5 m, h_p=47.5 m, L = 23.33 m, D = 0.467m

Question

Water is being pumped (at Q) from a reservoir to a nearby storage facility for a local farm. The
water level in the reservoir varies throughout the year. When it is considered “full” the change in
elevation from the top of the water line to the centerline of the pipe at (2) is h. The pipe is made
of welded steel. Assuming there are both major and minor losses, determine the pressure in the
pipe at (2).
Clearly state the source(s) of minor losses.
Use the Haaland and Darcy-Weisbach equations.
Flowrate (Q), elevation difference (h), head from pump (hp), pipe length (L), and diameter (D)
are given below. State all assumptions.

Q =0.54 m^3/s, h =3.5 m, h_p=47.5 m, L = 23.33 m, D = 0.467m
