Water has to be supplied to a town with one lakh population at the rate of 150 litre/capita/day from a river 2000 m away. The difference in elevation between the lowest water level in the sump and reservoir is 40 m. If the demand has to be supplied in 8 hrs, determine the size of the main and the brake horse power of the pumps required. Assume maximum demand as 1.5 times the average demand. Assume f= 0.03, velocity in the pipe = 2.4 m/s and efficiency of pump = 80%.

For a town with a population of 2 lakhs, a water supply scheme is to be designed. The maximum daily demand may be assumed as 200 litre/capita/day. The storage reservoir is situated 5 km away from the town. Assuming loss of head from source to town as 10 m and coefficient of friction for the pipe material as 0.012, recommend the size of supply main 50% of daily demand has to be pumped in 8 hours for the proposed scheme.
A pump is being utilized to deliver a flow rate of 500 li/sec from a reservoir of surface elevation of 65 m to another reservoir of surface elevation 95 m. The total length and diameter of the suction and discharge pipes are 500 mm, 1500 m and 30 mm, 1000 m respectively. Assume a head lose of 2 me- ters per 100 m length of the suction pipe and 3 m per 100 m length of the discharge pipe. What is the required horsepower of the pump?

1Two water pumps are arranged in series. The performance data for both pumps follow the parabolic curve fit Havailable =HO =aV ^2. For pump 1, HO =5.30 m and coefficient a =0.0438 m/Lpm^2; for pump 2, HO =8.70 m and coefficient a =0.0347 m/Lpm^2. In either case, the units ofnet pump head H are m, and the units of capacity V are Lpm.Calculate the combined shutoff head.
Two reservoirs (El 23.1m and El 95.5m) are connected by two pipelines 1-2 and 2-3 with a pump bridging the two pipelines. If the fluid (s.g=0.85) flows at a rate of 206 L/s, what is the power given by the pump? Assume head losses of 1.1 J/N from 1-2 and 5.6 J/N from 2 to 3
Water is flowing at a rate of 7 ft^3/s, and it is assumed that the head loss from the reservoir to the gage is equal to twice the velocity head in the 12-in pipe. What power must the pump supply in HP to allow this flow?
