Water enters vertically and steadily at a rate of 33 L/s into the sprinkler with unequal arms and unequal discharge areas. The smaller jet has a discharge area of 3 cm2 and a normal distance of 50 cm from the axis of rotation. The larger jet has a discharge area of 5 cm and a normal distance of 35 cm from the axis of rotation. Take the density of water to be 1000 kg/m3-1kg/L Water jet Water jet 35 cm...

(b) For this condition, calculate the average wall shear stress. P 1.94 Slug/ft The geometry of this circular partly full channel is given in the figure shown The angle θ 109.5°-1.911 radians. The area and hydraulic radius are given as: A R2 (0-(Sin 20)/2) Rh (R/2) (1- (Sin...
A submersible pump can maintain a flow rate of 46.0 gal/min through a 1.5 inch diameter pipe, provided the vertical change of the flow is less than 5 feet. What is the flow rate in m3/s? (use 1 m3 = 264 gal) What is the fluid speed in the pipe? (use 1.0 inch = 2.54 cm) What pressure change would occur in this pipe while moving water vertically upwards to a height of 4.0 meters while maintaining a constant flow...
Water at 160° Fis drawn at the rate of 400 gal/min from a vented tank into the 2-in Sch 40 suction line of the pump made of steel. The suction line has a total length of 10 ft. the discharge line elevates the water 30 ft to the level of the large heat exchanger. The discharge line has a total length of 40 ft. The system contains: 2 standard elbows, 1 swing check valve, and 4 open gate valves. Assuming...

I. Water flows steadily at 90 gal/min through a 2" diameter pipe as shown in the figure below. The pipe extends 13 inches from the wall (x-direction), the turns 90° to the right (out of the page in the -y direction) for 24 inches, and then turns 90° down (-z direction) for 9.5 inches. Horizontal section of pipe is 24 in 13 in 9.5 in Pipe supported by wall Q = 90 gal/min A. Compute all three reaction forces (R,...

Problem 5: The 28-in-diameter pump in the Figure at 1170 r/min is used to pump water at 20°C through a piping system at 14,000 gal/min. (a) Determine the required brake horsepower. The average friction factor is 0.018. (b) If there is 65 ft of 12-in-diameter pipe upstream of the pump, how far below the surface should the pump inlet be placed to avoid cavitation? Given that the water at 20 °C has a specific weight of 62.4 lbf/ft and vapor...

A gravelly sand channel slopes away from a reservoir, through the reservoir rim, to an adjacent drainage area. The channel slopes at a gradient of 23 m (75 ft) vertically to 30.5 m (100 ft) horizontally. In cross section the channel is 1.8 m (6 ft) thick and 4.6 m (15 ft) wide. The channel intersects the adjacent drainage area at a horizontal distance of 152.4 m (500 ft) from the reservoir. a. At minimum pool elevation in the reservoir...
