Problem 2 A pump is needed in a water supply system. The water is being pumped out of a ground-level storage reservoir with water surface elevation of 149.27 ft and needs to pass over a hill 2 miles away, where the pipe centerline is at elevation 200.00 ft. The flowrate is 22 mgd, pipe diameter is 24 inches, Hazen-Williams friction factor is 110, and pressure at the crest of the hill must be at least 20 psi. (a) What head must the pump provide? (b) How much power will be added to the water? (c) What size motor should be purchased if the pump/motor combination has an efficiency of 80 percent?

5. 10 lt / s of water is requested to be transported from A depot to city B. The water level of the A depot is 50 m and the B point is 30 m. The length of the EU pipe in the project has been calculated as 1000m and taken as f = 0.02. The pipe diameter has been chosen as φ90 mm. Since the minimum operating pressure (pressure head) required at point B is 20m, can water be delivered to point B with this system? (Velocity height is negligible)
Water is to be pumped to an atmospheric rooftop storage tank atop a 5-story building, 75 feet above ground-level. A pump station is located at the ground-level. The suction line is a 2-inch ID commercial steel pipe tapped into a municipal supply line maintained at 50 PSIG 5 feet below ground-level. The discharge line is 1.5-inch ID commercial steel, and the total length of pipe is approximately 100 ft. There are two ball valves, a water meter, and gate valve on the discharge line. Determine the pump head required to deliver 40 GPM and the pump power that must be supplied to the water. If a pump is required, what is the motor power required if the pump operates at 55% efficiency?
A large container filled with water and uncovered for use in fighting fires in an ethylene production plant. Water from this tank is pumped into the nozzle when needed use. This fire suppression system is designed to be able to transmit 1890 L/min of water at a pressure of 15 bar (relative pressure). If we ignore the difference in height between the water level in the tank and pump, there is no change in diameter of pipe and nozzle, pump efficiency is 70%. Ask how much work (hp) is required to the pump to achieve the desired pressure and flow would like?
