You are asked to "predict" the dynamic pressure that a sump-pump will face when pumping
7
water from a deep well inside a construction pit up to discharge into a large concrete pipe. The vertical distance from the water level inside the well and the discharge nozzle from which the water ours into the drainage pipe is 23.4 m .
The pump is at water level and will have to pump approximately 22 litres / second,
The installed pipe is 10 cm in diameter, is PVC and has several built-in flow "impediments.
1* gate vale
4* insert couplings
4*45 degree elbows
3* long 90 degree elbows.
i) What is the static pressure (in metres)
Answer:
Using the parameters given previously in Question 7, and the figure below what is the total pressure loss due to friction in a straight pipe?
Using the table below, What is the equivalent length for the system described in Question 7(exclude straight length of pipe)

Answer:
If the total length of the pipe from intake to outtake is 37.9. What is the total equivalent length of the pipe?
Answer:
If the static pressure was 24.5, and the friction loss was 0.7m100, of pipe. What would be the dynamic pressure loss or total dynamic head?
