An extremely simplified water supply system consisting of reservoir with lift pumps, elevated storage, piping and load centre (withdrawal point) is shown in Figure 1. (a) Based on the following data, sketch the hydraulic gradient for the system. ZA=0 m, PA= 552 Kpa, ZB = 9 m, PB = 207 Kpa, [8 marks) Zc = 12 m, Pc = 30 m (water level in the tank) Note: 1 Kpa of pressure is equal to 0.102 m of water head
(b) For these conditions detect the flow available at point B from both supply pups and elevated storage. [8 marks) (c) Determine the velocity of flow from A to B and from C to B.
