A new pump is required for the water supply system of a high-rise office building. The system
requires 0.06 m³/s of water pumped to a reservoir at the top of the tower 340 m above the street. City
water pressure at the street-level pump inlet is 400 kPa gage. The piping is to be commercial steel, the
overall length is 20 percent greater than the tower height, and there are fittings every 10 m with loss
coefficients of 0.2. Determine the minimum diameter required to keep the average water velocity
below 3.5 m/s in the pipe. Calculate the pressure rise required across the pump and estimate the
minimum power needed to drive the pump.
Water is to be pumped (whose characteristics below) from one large open tank into an apparatus working under a pressure of 2 atm. The pipe diameter is 0.15 m and the pipe length is 61 m. There are minor losses at the entrance, exit and throughout the pipe. The friction factor will be taken as 0.02. JEfficiency of the pump =0.7 Calculate: The flow-rate and shaft-power needed when the pump is operated at 1000 rev/min. The flow rate and the power when the speed of the pump increased by 10%. c) The flow rate and the power when two pump operate at parallel.
A 28-in pump is used to deliver water from a lower reservoir to a higher reservoir. The total
length of the 10-in-ID pipes is 62 ft. and the friction factor is taken as 0.022. If the pump head H
can be defined as a function of discharge Q in ft^3/s is: H = 365 - (0.04718Q^2), in feet.
