A selection for an economically viable choice is to be made among three different pump and pipeline systems for use in the distribution line of a residential area, with a population ranging between 5,000 and 20,000 individuals, as chosen by the evaluator. The water requirement for this location is considered to be 300 liters per person per day, and the pump system will operate 16 hours per day throughout the year. The length of the pipeline between the settlement and the water source is given as Lb=3600 meters. The purchasing price of the pump is Cp=8300Np [$], which varies based on the pump's power (Np). The power of a pump, Np, is calculated using the equation Np-pgHV / ne [W]. The pump efficiency np is 70%, and the density of water p is 1000 kg/m3. The net head in the pipeline system (Total Head) H is given by the equation 90.0182* (Lb *V^2)/Db^5 [mSS], which is dependent on the pipeline length (Lb), flow rate (V), and pipe diameter (Db). The unit of flow rate in this equation is m/s. The table below provides the pipe diameters, their respective unit prices, and the economic lifespans of the pumps to be used. The cost of electricity is 5.13 TL/kWh, with an annual escalation of 40% for the first 5 years and 20% for subsequent years. The cost of the credit obtained by the municipality for this project is 38% annually. ww a) Calculate the flow rate and the length of the pipeline. (5 points) b) Determine the total head and pump power for three pumps. (5 points) c) Calculate the pump and pipeline costs for three pumps. (5 points) d) Compute the electricity cost for the first year for three pumps. (5 points) e) Create a cash flow table for three pumps showing annual net costs. (5 points) f) Use the present value method to specify the economically viable pump's flow rate, total head, and pipe diameter.
