Question
A pump draws water at 20 liters per second from
reservoir A and lifts it to reservoir B, as shown in
Figure . The head loss from A to 1 is three
times the velocity head in the 150-mm diameter pipe,
and the head loss from 2 to B is fifteen times the
velocity head in the 100-mm diameter pipe.
1. Compute the Power delivered by the pump in kw
( A. 79.07 , B. 48.10 C. 13.08 , D. 57.23)
2. Compute the Pressure head at point 1 in m.
( A. 85.96 , B. 19.74 C. 245.09 , D. 45.90)
3. Pressure head at point 2 in m.
( A. 104.51 , B. 246.67 C. 57.84 , D. 12.69)
