4. The pump station requires to lift the water requirement of the municipality. The total dynamic head requirement is 40 m. If the total head loss is 5 m, determine the power in kW required to reach the required elevation. If the efficiency of the pump is 80% determine the power required in kW.
5. The Water District plans to cross two parallel pipes along both sides of the bridge to augment the 400 mm transmission line. If the diameter of the two pipes are 200 mm and 250 mm, respectively, determine the total head loss in meter and the flow rate in m3/s along the two pipes. Consider that the flow is 25 MLD and the length of both pipes are 150 m.
A horizontal 150 mm diameter pipe gradually reduces its section to 50 mm diameter, subsequently enlarging into 150 mm section. The pressure in the 150-mm pipe at a point just before entering the reducing section is 140 kPa and in the 50 mm section at the end of the reducer, the pressure is 70 kPa. If 600 mm of head is lost between the points where the pressures are known, compute the rate of flow of water through the pipe.
Reservoir A (Elevation 300m) supplies water to reservoir B (Elevation 180m) thru a 450 mm ductile iron pipe. A turbine is installed in the same level with Reservoir B. The total system flow is 350 gpm determine the the output power in Hp if the turbine is 75% efficient and the total headloss of the system is 3.5m.
