FLOW THROUGH PIPELINE PROBLEM Process water is pumped from the main storage tank (A) to process tanks (B) and (C). The pipeline from main storage tank (A) to the centrifugal pump inlet is 3-inch Schedule 40 commercial steel pipe, with an equivalent length of 61 meters. The line from the centrifugal pump discharge to the tee (entry into leg) where the pipeline branches is also 3-inch Schedule 40 pipe, with an equivalent length of 30.5 meters. The pipeline from the tee to process tank (B) is 1.5-inch Schedule 40 pipe, with an equivalent length of 183 meters. The pipeline from the tee to process tank (C) is 2-inch Schedule 40 commercial steel pipe, with an equivalent length of 183 meters. The equivalent lengths as given do not include four (4) gate valves, one (1) between storage tank (A) and the centrifugal pump, one (1) between the centrifugal pump and the tee, and one (1) each at process tanks (B) and (C); and two (2) globe valves (bevel seat), globe valve “X” in line from the tee to…

A "spa tub" is to be designed to replace bath tubs in reno- vations. There are to be 6 outlet nozzles, each with a di- ameter of 12 mm, and each should have an outlet velocity of 12 m/s. What is the required flow rate from the single pump that supplies all of these nozzles? If there is one suction line leading to the pump, what is the minimum diameter to limit the velocity at the inlet of the pump to 2.5 m/s?
If the NPSHR is 3m less than the NPSHA you got on question number 2, determine the pump suction specific speed at pump rotating at 1800rpm and Q=500gpm
Water at 5°C is to be pumped from the river to the bottom of a water tower. The pump is 5 m above the river (dimension "a" on the diagram below) and is supplied by a 6.00 inch schedule 40 pipe. The tank is 19.5 m above the pump (dimension "b" on the diagram below) and is supplied by a 4 inch schedule 40 pipe. The water level in the tank is 4.3 m above the inlet (dimension "c" on the diagram below). The pump delivers 0.021 m/s. Losses are estimated to be 1.2 m between the river and the pump, and 4.2 m between the pump and the tank.

Problem Statement Water at 60°F and one atmosphere is being transferred from tank 1 to tank 2 with a 2-hp pump that is 75% efficient, as shown in Figure 8-7. All the piping is 4-inch schedule 40 steel pipe except for the last section, which is 2-inch schedule 40 steel pipe. All elbows are 4-inch diameter, and a reducer is used to connect to the 2-inch pipe. The change in elevation between points 1 and 2 is z2 - z1 = 60 ft. Tank 1 6 ft 4-inch 15 ft 4-inch 300 ft 4-inch 150 ft 4-inch Pump Tank 2 = 90° Elbow = Reducer All piping is schedule 40 steel with diameters given.

A duct system layout is shown in the figure below, it is supplied with air from a central air conditioning unit. The ducts require to be rectangular with a maximum height of 10in due to ceiling limitations. Maximum air duct velocities are: main = 1200fpm; branches = 800 fpm. Determine the sizes of the rectangular ducts and the static pressure at the AHU. Use Velocity reduction method. AHU- AIR HANDLING UNIT (CENTRAL AIRCON)
