Chapter 6, Problem 31P

In a pipe 0.3 m in diameter, 0.3 m3/s of water are pumped up a hill. On the hilltop (elevation 48), the line reduces to 0.2 m diameter. If the pump maintains a pressure of 690 kPa at elevation 21, calculate the pressure in the pipe on the hilltop.

A water pump has an outlet diameter of 70 mm horizontal pipe flowing full at the outlet. The resulting jet strikes the ground surface at a horizontal distance of 32 m and a vertical distance of 1.75 m from the outlet. Find the pumping capacity in liters per minute.
The oil flows through the vertical venturi tube as shown in the figure. The venturi inlet has a diameter of 20 cm, the isthmus of the venturi is 10 cm in diameter, the pressure at inlet P1 is 41.4 kPa(gage), and the pressure at the isthmus P2 is the same size as the body of water. The same oil which is 1.52 m. Find the flow rate of this oil. The density of the oil is 849 kg/m3.
A liquid (SG = 0.562) is being pumped from a reservoir as shown. The pressures at points 1 and 2 are -9 psi and 41 psi, respectively. The rate of flow in the pipe is 0.898 ft3/s. What will be the rating of the pump (in horsepower) if its efficiency is 90%? Neglect energy (friction) losses in the system. Use x = 5 ft., y = 9 ft. Use 1 hp = 550 lb-ft/s. Round off to two decimal places.
