Chapter 7 Problem 7.89

Question

Water flows from reservoir A to reservoir Bin a desert retirement community. The water temperature in the system is I 00F, the pipe diameter D is 4 ft, and the pipe length L is 200 ft. If H = 35ft, h = 10ft, and the pipe head loss is given by hL = O.Ol(L/D)(V2 /2g), where Vis the velocity in the pipe, what will be the discharge in the pipe? In your solution, include the head loss at the pipe outlet. What will be the pressure at point P halfway between the two reservoirs? Assume a = 1.0 at all locations.

Solution

Step 1 of 3)

The first step in solving 7 problem number 89 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Water flows from reservoir A to reservoir Bin a desert retirement community. The water temperature in the system is I 00F, the pipe diameter D is 4 ft, and the pipe length L is 200 ft. If H = 35ft, h = 10ft, and the pipe head loss is given by hL = O.Ol(L/D)(V2 /2g), where Vis the velocity in the pipe, what will be the discharge in the pipe? In your solution, include the head loss at the pipe outlet. What will be the pressure at point P halfway between the two reservoirs? Assume a = 1.0 at all locations.
From the textbook chapter THE ENERGY EQUATION you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
