‘Compute the loss of head and pressure drop in 200 ft of horizontal 6-in-diameter asphalted cast-
iron pipe carrying water with a mean velocity of 6 fs.

EXAMPLE 6.7
Oil, with p = 900 kg/m? and » = 0.00001 m/s, flows at 0.2 m¥s through 500 m of 200-mm-
diameter cast iran pipe. Determine (a) the head Toss and (A) the pressure drop if the: pipe
slopes down at 10° in the Ov divection.
Example 6.16
NAMPLE 6.16
Water, p = 1.94 slugs/ft? and v = 0.000011 f/s, is pumped between two reservoirs at 0.2 1s
through 400 ft of 2-in-diameter pipe and several minor losses, as shown in Fig. E6.16. The rough.
ness ratio is eld = 0.001. Compute the pump horsepower required.

Problem 6.55
P6.55 The reservoirs in Fig. P6.55 contain water at 20°C. If the
pipe is smooth with L = 4500 m and d = 4 cm, what will
a
es
the flow rate in m‘/h be for Az = 100 m?Problem 6.62
P6.62 Water at 20°C is to be pumped through 2000 ft of pipe from
reservoir | to 2 at a rate of 3 ft'/s, as shown in Fig. P6.62.
If the pipe is cast iron of diameter 6 in and the pump is 75
percent efficient, what horsepower pump is needed?Problem 6.109
P6.109 In Fig. P6.109 there are 125 ft of 2-in pipe, 75 ft of 6-in
pipe, and 150 ft of 3-in pipe, all cast iron. There are three
90° elbows and an open globe valve, all flanged. If the exit
elevation is zero, what horsepower is extracted by the tur-
bine when the flow rate is 0.16 ft'/s of water at 20°C?
