Question: A pump is installed in a 1 0 - c m pipeline and transports water from reservoir A to a higher reservoir ( B )

A pump is installed in a 10-cm pipeline and transports water from reservoir A to a higher reservoir (B) as shown in the Figure. The head loss from A to the pump is four times the velocity head, and the head loss from the pump to B is seven times the velocity head. The pressure head measured at the inlet (suction side) of the pump is -6m. Calculate the pressure head the pump is delivering under these operating conditions. Draw the EGL and HGL.
Viscosity =110-6m2sec
Water Vapor Pressure =2900Pa(abs)
Water unit weight =9810Nm3
Atmospheric Pressure =101,000Pa
