Question

The design of a city water supply system is shown

in the figure. Reservoir A need to supply 0.0938

m3/s to lower reservoirs B and C. The roughness

coefficient for all pipes is 0.011. Use table

below for the properties of the pipes.

a) Calculate the flow rate in pipe 2

( A. 0.0391 m3/s , B. 0.0513 m3/s C. 0.1997 m3/s , D. 0.0194 m3/s)

 

b) Calculate the flow rate in pipe 3

( A. 0.0547 m3/s , B. 0.0211 m3/s C. 0.0924 m3/s , D. 0.0380 m3/s)

 

c) Calculate the elevation of water surface in reservoir À to supply the required flow rate

(A. 140.00 m   B. 160.00 m.   C . 150.00 m. D. 170.00 m)
