Question: Reterence point System Data: Overflow elevation at Point 1 : 4 0 1 0 feet Overflow elevation at Point 3 : 4 1 3 0

Reterence point
System Data:
Overflow elevation at Point 1: 4010 feet
Overflow elevation at Point 3: 4130 feet
Pipeline 1(from point 1 to point 2): L1=120ft,D1=12-inches, 2 gate valves
Pipeline 2: (from point 2 to point 3): L2=8,500ft,D2=12-inches, 6 gate valves
Elevation of Point 2: 3978 feet
Design flow =2,500gpm
Use Swamee and Jain equation to calculate friction factor 'f'
Use kinematic viscosity for 50-degree F. water
Pipeline material is PVC )=(5e-06
Use gate valve k=0.6(each valve)
Find:
Total dynamic head (TDH or hp) of the pump (ft)
Discharge pressure of the pump (psi)
Hydraulic grade elevation on the discharge side of the pump (ft)
Pump water horsepower (WHP)
Friction loss (ft) in pipeline 1
Friction loss (ft) in pipeline 2
Note: Show all your calculations.
