03 m3/s flows through a 300-mm find the total energy head at point A with
pipe that later reduces to a 150-mm pipe, respect to a datum at the pump.
calculate the average velocities in the two
pipes.
2. If the velocity in a 300-mm pipe is 0.50 m/s,
what is the velocity in a 75-mm-diameter jet
issuing from a nozzle attached to the pipe?
3. What size pipe can carry 2.36 m3/s at an
average velocity of 3.0 m/s?
4. A 12" pipe carrying 3.93 cfs connects to a 6"
pipe. Find the velocity head in the 6" pipe.
5. A 150-mm pipe carries 0.0813 m3/s of water.
The pipe branches into two pipes, one 50 mm
in diameter and the other 100 mm in
diameter. If the velocity in the 50-mm pipe is
12.2 m/s, what is the velocity in the 100-mm
pipe?
6. A 300-mm pipe carries oil of sp gr 0.812 at a
rate of 0.111 m3/s, and the pressure at a point
A is 18.4 kPa gage. If point A is 1.89 m above
the datum plane, calculate the energy at A.
7. Water flows through a horizontal 150-mm
pipe under a pressure of 414 kPa. Assuming 14. Water flows through the turbine in the figure

75-mm diameter reduction is 138 kPa? A and B, respectively, are 147.5 kPa and —
8. If oil of specific gravity 0.752 flows in 34.5 kPa. Determine the power delivered to
Problem 7., find flow Q. the turbine by the water.
9. If carbon tetrachloride (sp gr 1.594) flows in
Problem 7., find flow Q.
10. Water flows through a 200-mm-diameter
pipe at a velocity of 2.00 m/s. Determine the
volume flow rate, weight flow rate, and mass
flow rate.
11. Gas flows through a conduit as shown in the
figure 1. For the data indicated on the figure,
determine the mass flow rate of the gas and
its mass density at section 2.
