Q6: Water enters a horizontal pipe
with a rectangular cross section at a
speed of 1 m/s. The width of the pipe
remains constant but the height
decreases. Twenty meters from the
entrance, the height is half of what it
is at the entrance. If the water
pressure at the entrance is 3000 Pa.
what is the pressure 20 m

Given the pump(or fan) characteristics in tabular form of up to 20 points of head, η, and
flow rate Q. Using EES program or any other software, draw the pump(or fan) characteristic
curves, and the system characteristic ( in the form Es= Δz+kQ²) requiring Δz and k input.
The program will enable the user to alter the pump (or fan) and system characteristics (Δz
and k) to obtain the new curves and establish the operating point.
Calculations involving retention time involve the following formula, T =, where V is
volume and Q is flow rate. Often times, you will be required to calculate the volume of more
than one tank and determine a rate of flow, given a total retention time.
Tank 1
Tank 2
Let's assume that the total retention time for the entire system is 55 minutes, and we want
to know the inlet flow, given the dimensions of tank 1 are : 14m x 10m x 3 m, and tank 2
are: 5m x 10m x 3 m.
Calculate the inlet flow.
