Do all the calculations for the following problem and show all of the steps. In the reservoir pipe system in the figure, the water sent from reservoir I to reservoir II by gravity is pumped to reservoirs III and IV by the pump placed at point B.The water surface elevations of reservoirs I, II and IV are 84m,79m and 99m,respectively.The energy level at point E is given as 109m.Valve I is fully open at the outlet of chamber, and the valve loss coefficient will will be =5.
a)Determine the flow rate passing through ALL of the pipes
b)Find the energy height and power that the pump must give to the system. (Efficiency coefficient =0.75)
c)Draw the relative energy line of the entire system. Local head losses will be taken into account only between chambers I and II.(Local head losses will be neglected in other sections)
d)Determine the hydraulic behavior of the pipe in the E IV pipe, considering that the roughness of the pipe is ks =9.10^-4m.
e)Calculate the friction coefficient f in the square-section E-III pipe, considering that ks =0.002m,using the MOODY diagram. Determine the water surface elevation of the III chamber.
