A municipality wants to determine the flow rate into the plant based on pipe size, elevation difference, and assumed roughness, for the water supply reservoir is shown in the figure below. The pipe is an old 4-inch diameter Cast Iron with a Hazen Roughness coefficient of 100 & 223 feet long. The difference in elevation is 62 feet. The pipe has a strainer at the entrance (k-1.9), a valve (k=8.6), a check valve (k-2:7) and 3- 90° bends (-0.83). The flow exits into a receiving pond at the WTP. Provide the flow rate in Gallons per Minute. WTP Az

Problem 1 You are designing a storm drain for a new parking lot. The topographic conditions at the site restrict the pipe slope to be approximately 0.013 (with up to 10 percent variation allowed). The storm drain needs to convey a design flowrate of 17 cfs. You are considering use of concrete pipe (n = 0.013) and corrugated steel pipe (n = 0.022). (a) Which size pipe and what slope would you specify in each case? Make your selection so the pipe is full, or nearly full, at the design flowrate. Available pipe diameters are those listed next to tic marks on the "circular channel - low Q cleaned up" that is posted at NYU Brightspace. Use this nomograph, NOT the one that is in the Powerpoint lesson because it has more resolution at lower flowrates. (b) What is the maximum flowrate (when full) that each of the pipes you specified in (a) can convey? (c) What is the velocity of the water when flowing full in each case?
QUESTION 2 , (a) In a rare pipe system design, there is such a case whereas the minor losses is greater than major losses. Describe the case and explain the reason why minor losses value is more than major losses value. (b) Water at 35°C flows steadily in a 4 cm,diameter pipe at velocity of 3.5 cm/s. The head loss is 0.5 m. Calculate: i) the length of theuotual pipe, ii) the pressure loss, and iii) the pumping power required to overcome this pressure drop.
