Water at 15°C is to be discharged from a reservoir at a rate of 18 L/s using two horizontal cast iron pipes connected in series

and a pump between them. The first pipe is 20 m long and has a 6-cm diameter, while the second pipe is 36 m long and has a 3-cm diameter. The water level in the reservoir is 30 m above the centerline of the pipe. The pipe entrance is sharp-edged, and losses associated with the connection of the pump are negligible. Neglecting the effect of the kinetic energy correction factor, determine the required pumping head and the minimum pumping power to maintain the indicated flow rate. The density and dynamic viscosity of water at 15°C are rho = 999.1 kg/m3 and μ = 1.138 × 10–3 kg/m·s. The loss coefficient is KL = 0.5 for a sharp-edged entrance. The roughness of cast iron pipes is ε = 0.00026 m.

Answer:

The required pumping head is 1344.55 m and the pumping power is 236.96 kW

Explanation:

The energy equation is equal to:

\frac{P_{1} }{\gamma } +\frac{V_{1}^{2}  }{2g} +z_{1} =\frac{P_{2} }{\gamma } +\frac{V_{2}^{2}  }{2g} +z_{2}+h_{i} -h_{pump} , if V_{1} =0,z_{2} =0\\h_{pump} =\frac{V_{2}^{2}}{2} +h_{i}-z_{1}

For the pipe 1, the flow velocity is:

V_{1} =\frac{Q}{\frac{\pi D^{2} }{4} }

Q = 18 L/s = 0.018 m³/s

D = 6 cm = 0.06 m

V_{1} =\frac{0.018}{\frac{\pi *0.06^{2} }{4} } =6.366m/s

The Reynold´s number is:

Re=\frac{\rho *V*D}{u} =\frac{999.1*6.366*0.06}{1.138x10^{-3} } =335339.4

\frac{\epsilon }{D} =\frac{0.00026}{0.06} =0.0043

Using the graph of Moody, I will select the f value at 0.0043 and 335339.4, as 0.02941

The head of pipe 1 is:

h_{1} =\frac{V_{1}^{2}  }{2g} (k_{L}+\frac{fL}{D}  )=\frac{6.366^{2} }{2*9.8} *(0.5+\frac{0.0294*20}{0.06} )=21.3m

For the pipe 2, the flow velocity is:

V_{2} =\frac{0.018}{\frac{\pi *0.03^{2} }{4} } =25.46m/s

The Reynold´s number is:

Re=\frac{\rho *V*D}{u} =\frac{999.1*25.46*0.03}{1.138x10^{-3} } =670573.4

\frac{\epsilon }{D} =\frac{0.00026}{0.03} =0.0087

The head of pipe 1 is:

h_{2} =\frac{V_{2}^{2}  }{2g} (k_{L}+\frac{fL}{D}  )=\frac{25.46^{2} }{2*9.8} *(0.5+\frac{0.033*36}{0.03} )=1326.18m

The total head is:

hi = 1326.18 + 21.3 = 1347.48 m

The required pump head is:

h_{pump} =\frac{25.46^{2} }{2*9.8} +1347.48-36=1344.55m

The required pumping power is:

P=Q\rho *g*h_{pump}  =0.018*999.1*9.8*1344.55=236965.16W=236.96kW

Answer:

A civil engineer.

Explanation:

Civil engineering is the science that deals with the design, creation and maintenance of constructions for civil use on the earth's surface. Thus, this specialty seeks to adapt soils to the needs of life in society, creating buildings, bridges, and all other constructions adapted to civil life, while taking care of the correct use of soils and the correct distribution of spaces and resources. to be used for such constructions.

Why can you anodise Aluminium and Magnesium alloys?
Anastasy [175]

Explanation:

Anodizing :

 Anodizing is the surface protection process from the environment.As we know that due to external environment surfaces get corrodes .By using anodizing process the outer surface  of material coated by using different type of coating material.

As the name stand that in the anodizing process there will be anode and oxygen.in this process oxidation of material take place .

Oxides of aluminium and magnesium are stable that is why they anodized by this process.

Air is saturated with water vapor at 35.0 oC and a total pressure of 1.50 atmospheres. If the molar flow rate of the dry air in
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

11.541 mol/min

Explanation:

temperature = 35°C

Total pressure = 1.5 * 1.013 * 10^5 = 151.95 kPa

note : partial pressure of water in mixture = saturation pressure of water at T = 35°c )

from steam table it is = 5.6291 Kpa

calculate the mole fraction of H_{2}o ( YH_{2}o )

= 5.6291 / 151.95

= 0.03704

calculate the mole fraction of air ( Yair )

 = 1 - mole fraction of water

= 1 - 0.03704 = 0.9629

Now to determine the molar flow rate of water vapor in the stream

lets assume N = Total molar flow rate

NH_{2}o = molar flow rate of water

Nair = molar  flow rate of air = 300 moles /min

note : Yair * n = Nair

therefore n = 300 / 0.9629 = 311.541  moles /min

Molar flowrate of water

=  n -  Nair

= 311.541 - 300 = 11.541 mol/min
