Question

1 A pump with an 80% efficiency drives water up between two reservoirs through a piping system of total length L = 15 and circular cross -section diameter d = 7 cm. The reservoirs are open to the atmosphere at an ambient temperature of 20 C. The difference in elevation between the free surface can be accounted for by the local loss coefficients Kentrance  Kexit 1.0, Kelbow 0.4. If the volumetric flow rate in the system Q = 10 Liter/s, and the surface roughness of the pipe is  = 0.15 mm, calculate:
(a) The average water flow velocity in the pipe.

Answer 1

The correct answer to this question is that the length of 14 is it’s half Which would be 7
