Problem 105P

Reconsider Prob. 5-109. In order to drain the tank faster, a pump is installed near the tank exit. Determine the pump head input necessary to establish an average water velocity of 5m/s when the tank is full.

PROB. 5-109: A 3-m-high large tank is initially filled with water. The tank water surface is open to the atmosphere, and a sharp-edged 10-cm-diameter orifice at the bottom drains to the atmosphere through a horizontal 80-m-long pipe. If the total irreversible head loss of the system is determined to be 1.5 m, determine the initial velocity of the water from the tank. Disregard the effect of the kinetic energy correction factors.
