Losses in Pipes Calculatians
L0.1- trrhat is the pressure drop per kilometer of a horizontal pipe w:hen *ater at l5oC
(v :1.14 +106 m'is) flows in a 25 cra diameter cast iion at a flox' rateof
225 liters/s?

10.2- Calculate the stea&' rarl atwhich oil (v :10-s ra will flow through a casl iron
pipe 100 mm diameter aad 120 m long uader a head differeace of 5 m-
10.3- Detsrroine the size of galvanized steel pipe needed to eatry water
(v:i.i4 +10{:azls) a distance of 180 m at 85 literVs with a bead loss of 9 m.
10.4- How large a *rought iron pipe is required to convey oil (S.G
:0.9, viscosity :
0.035 Pa-s) from one tark tg aoother al arate Of 0.03 *3lt if g" P.if is 1000 m
long and the difference in elevation of the free liquid surface is 12 m?
10.5-Oi1 raith kinematic viscosity (v :10-5 m'ls;and a density of 800 K9 *3 is piimped
througb a casl iron horizontal pipe L0 crn in diameter at atate of 23 liters/s,
(a) What is the pressure drop ia 100 m of the pipe?
(b) WAat size (dianeter) of the pipe would reduce the pressure drop to one-third this
value for the same flow rate aod pipe length?
L$.GTwo reservoirs containfulg water are coflrlected by a coostant area, galvatized iron
pipe that has one righi angle bend, as shown in Fig (9.3), The surface pressure at
tnl opp". ressrvoir is atnospheric, whereas the gage pressure at the lower
rese*oir sr:rface is 70IGa The pipe diemeter is 75 rnm. Assume that only
sigaificaat losses occl]r in the pipe and bend. Determine the rnagnitude and
direction of the volume flow rate.

10.7- A smooth pipe ccrsists of 15 ra of 200 mm oipe fcilow.-d by 100 m of 600 mm pipe
with an abruE:t chaage of cross sec,tion at th.e j-,mction it has a flush eatrance and a
submerged discharge.
If it canies \&?ter at 15 C in the smaller pipe rn'ith a velocity of 5.4 ir--is, u,hat is the
total heaC loss?

9,l0-Suppose that, in the figure, pipe 1 is 90 cm smooth concrete, 1500 m long: pipe 2 is
60 cm cast iron 450 m long and pipe 3 is 45 cm cast irorq i200 m long. The
elevations of water surfaces in reservoirs A and B are 60 and 45 m, respectively,
and the discharge Q1 is 1.4 n3/s. Findthe elevation of the surface of reservoir C,
Neglect minor losses.

.9.11- Heavy machine oi1 having a specific gravityof0.S5,andaaabsolute
viscosity of 400 x 10-3 Ns/rn2 is pumped through 20 m long of 0.052 m inside
diameter PYC pipe. The pipeline coniains cne swing check vah'e, two gate
valves, four 45" standard elborvs, and a *ozzle with a throat diarneter of 0.026
m. A manometer connecting the inlet and tl:roat of the nazzle reads 2.0 m of
mercury. All fittings and valves have cemented connections" Find the presswe
loss be8veen points 2 and 3.
Hint:
1- Assume frictioniess flow in the nozzle
2- Assume that cemented connections are equivalent to sgrewed connections.
