: During a heavy rainstorm, water from a parking lot completely fills an 18-in.- diameter, smooth, concrete storm sewer. If the

flowrate is 10 ft3/s, determine the pressure drop in a 100-ft. horizontal section of the pipe. Repeat the problem if there is a 2-ft. change in elevation of the pipe per 100 ft. of its length.

Answer

diameter of parking lot = 18 in

flowrate = 10 ft³/s

pressure drop = 100 ft

using general equation

\dfrac{P_1}{\gamma}+\dfrac{v_1^2}{2g}+Z_1 = \dfrac{P_2{\gamma} + \dfrac{v_2^2}{2g} + Z_2 +\dfrac{fLV^2}{2\rho D}

V = \dfrac{Q}{A} = \dfrac{10}{\dfrac{\pi}{4}(\dfrac{18}{12})^2} = 5.66\ ft/s

\Delta P = \gamma (Z_2-Z_1) +\dfrac{fLV^2}{2\rho D}

taking f = 0.0185

at Z₁ = Z₂

\Delta P = \dfrac{0.0185 \times 100\times 1.94\times 5.66^2}{2\dfrac{18}{12} (2)}

ΔP = 0.266 psi

b) when flow is uphill z₂-z₁ = 2

\Delta P =62.4\times 2 \times \dfrac{1}{144} +0.266

\Delta P= 1.13\ psi

c) When flow is downhill  z₂-z₁ = -2

\Delta P =62.4\times 2 \times \dfrac{1}{144} +0.266

\Delta P=-0.601\ psi

What are the advantages of triggering circuit<br> for thyrestors?
sergejj [24]

Answer:

For most applications, it is simple, dependable, efficient, and straightforward to apply - a simple trigger signal may be provided, with appropriate processing if necessary. This implies that an appropriate trigger signal may be generated using other electrical circuits and then applied to the SCR.

NemiM [27]

Answer and Explanation:

• 1 thread awaits the incoming request

• 1 thread responds to the request

• 1 thread reads the hard disk

A multithreaded file server is better than a single-threaded server and a finite-state machine server because it provides better response compared to the rest and can make use of the shared Web data.

Yes, there are circumstances in which a single-threaded server might be better. If it is designed such that:

- the server is completely CPU bound, such that multiple threads isn't needed. But it would account for some complexity that aren't needed.

An example is, the assistance number of a telephone directory (e.g 7771414) for an community of say, one million people. Consider that each name and telephone number record is sixty-four characters, the whole database takes 64 MB, and can be easily stored in the server's memory in order to provide quick lookup.

NOTE:

Multiple threads lead to operation slow down and no support for Kernel threads.
