Question: Problem # 1 ( 5 0 point ) : In Figure below, the pipe entrance is sharp - edged having K 1 = 0 .

Problem #1(50 point):
In Figure below, the pipe entrance is sharp-edged having K1=0.5, and for the open globe valve assume K2=6.0. The flow rate of water is 0.016m3s.
(a) Calculate the velocity and Reynolds number of flow in pipe.
(b) Find the head loss due to friction, hf(in m ).
(c) Calculate the Turbine head (in m ) and Power generated (in Watt).
Given: Density of water, water=1000kgm3; Viscosity of water, =0.001kgm.s; Friction factor from Moody Chart, f=0.024.
Draw sketch and show all calculations.
