SUBJECT: ENGINEERING UTILITIES 2 1. What are your thoughts/insights on the use of pumps and domestic hot water supply system in the Philippines? 2. In the pumping of water, why do we need to consider following : Mass of water to be lifted, The height through which it must be lifted or forced, The distance it must travel in moving from one place to another, and The ways in which in water may be affected by friction. 3. Would you suggest the use of domestic hot water supply system in your home? Support/explain your answer.

PROBLEM 1: A closed tank whose bottom is 18 inches in diameter is filled with three liquids: 12 inches of carbon tetrachloride (SG=1.59), 4 inches of water and 2 inches of syrup (SG=1.31). The air chamber in the tank is pressurized at 9 psi. Illustrate the problem before solving.
Consider the three pipes shown below in cross section. From left to right, they contain water, mercury, and gasoline. All pipes are open to the atmosphere whose temperature is 68°F. There is no flow, and all pipes are horizontal with a centerline elevation at z = 0 ft. The water rises to Zw=10.0 ft; the mercury rises to zw= 1.00 ft; the gasoline rises to zw = 10.0 ft. Part A What is the gage pressure in the most highly pressurized pipe? [lb/ft²] Part B Now consider the modified picture below. The fluids, pipes, elevations and temperature are all the same as in Part A, but now the top of each tube is sealed. There is no air in the system, so only water vapor exists above the water surface, only mercury vapor above the mercury surface, and only gasoline vapor above the gasoline surface. What is the absolute pressure in the most highly pressurized pipe? [lb/ft2] Hint: Use the Fluid Properties Tables on Canvas (Week 1).
