Problem No. 2
= 1000 lit).
Problem No. 3
A city of 6000 population has an average total consumption per person per
day of 100 gallons. Compute the daily total consumption of the city in cubic meter
per second. (1
ft
= 7.48 gallons)
Problem No. 2
Problem No. 3
Definition of terms:
Relative equilibrium a condition in which the entire mass, including the vessel,
is neither in equilibrium nor at rest relative to the earth.
Problem No. 1
An open cylindrical vessel having a height equal to its diameter is half-filled
with a water and revolved about its own vertical axis with a constant angular speed
of 120 rpm. Find its minimum diameter so that there can be no liquid spilled.
Problem No. 2
Car traveling on a horizontal road has a rectangular cross section, 6m long by
24 m wide by 1.5 m high. If the car is half full of water, what is the maximum
acceleration if can undergo without spilling any water?
Problem No. 2
What is the rate of flow of water passing through a pipe with a pipe with a
diameter of 20 mm and speed of 0.5 m/sec?
Problem No. 3
Oil flows from a tank through 150 m of 150 mm diameter pipe and then
discharges into air as shown in the Figure. If the head loss from point 1 to point 2 is
600 mm, determine the pressure needed at point 1 to cause 17 lit/sec of oil to flow.
Weirs an overflow structure built across an open channel for the purpose of the
measuring the flow.
Coefficient of discharge is the ratio of the actual discharge through the device
to the theoretical velocity which would occur without losses.
Coefficient of velocity is the ratio of the actual mean velocity to the theoretical
velocity which would occur without losses.
Coefficient of contraction is the ratio of the actual area of the contracted
section of the stream or jet to the area of the opening through which the fluid flows.
Problem No. 1
Calculate the discharge through the 140-mm diameter orifice shown. Assume
C=0.62.
Problem No. 2
A 50-mm diameter circular sharp-edged orifice at the side of a tank
discharges water under a head of 3 m. If the coefficient of contraction
C c = 0.63
and the head lost 240 mm, Compute the discharge and the coefficient of velocity
Cv
and discharge C.
Problem No. 3
Determine the discharge of water over a 60 degrees triangular weir if the
measured head is a.) 0.623 ft b.) 1.15 ft.
Problem No. 4
A rectangular supressed weir of length 1 m is constructed or cut at the top of
a tall rectangular tank having a horizontal section 20 m by 20 m. If the initial head
over the weir is 1 m, compute the time required to discharge 72 cu. m. of water.
What commercial size if new cast iron pipe shall be used to carry 4490 gpm
with a
hf
Problem No. 2
Determine the discharge of water through a 5 cm wrought iron pipe if the
frictional loss is 80 KPa per 30 m of pipe.
Problem No. 3
A 20-mm diameter commercial steel pipe, 30 m long is used to drain an oil
tank. Determine the discharge when the oil level in the tank is 3 m above the exit of
the pipe. Neglect minor losses and assume f= 0.12
Problem No. 2
Water flows in a triangular V-notch steel channel, with vertex angle of 60
degrees, at a velocity of 1.2 m/s. Find the normal depth of flow if the channel is laid
on a slope of 0.0017. Use n=0.014
Problem No. 3
What would be the probable depth of flow of a river 100 m wide carrying 280
cu.m./sec with a slope of 0.00028 and n= 0.0040?
Hydraulic Jump
Definition of terms:
Hydraulic Jump is an abrupt increase in depth of rapidly flowing water. It is only
means by which the depth of flow can change from less than critical to greater than
critical to a uniform channel.
Problem No. 1
A spillway 1.5 m deep goes over a dam 30 m high. Using a weir factor
Cw
of 1.92, determine; a.) the depth of flow at the root of the spillway and after the
jump, b.) the velocity of flow after the jump, c.) the energy after the jump, and d.)
the head loss in the jump.
