Problem 3: An industrial plant needs 1,200,000 gallons of water per day which must be pumped from a lake to a height of 70 m. through 427 m. of 150 mm in diameter pipe with f = 0.02. Considering losses in the pump due to values and appurtenances equal to 4 times the velocity head and entrance loss equal to the velocity head. a. Compute the required discharge in m/sec b. What is the efficiency of the pump and pipeline? c. Find the power in hp required to deliver the water needed.
