Identify the problem• Given

�Reservoir elevations, z1,z2, z3

�Pipe characteristics: L1,L2,L3,D1,D2,D3,ε1, ε2 ,ε3

• Determine

�The flow rate Q1,Q2, Q3

�and direction on each pipe

�Junction head: hj (piozometer head)

Solution Procedure�Assume an appropriate direction for the flow in each pipe

�Assume a junction head

If friction factor is unknownMake best assumption for the initial value of the friction factor (fully turbulent rough flow)

�Write energy equation from each reservoir to the junctionCalculate the flow rate for each pipe by using energy equation

�Put into continuity equation the determined discharge values

�Check that the continuity equation is satisfied or not

�If not change the junction head

Example

• Assume Q1 and Q2 “+” and Q3 “-“

• Neglect all minor losses

Energy conservation b/w A&J: hA= hJ+h l,AJ= hJ+hf,AJ Energy conservation b/w B&J: hB= hJ+h l,BJ= hJ+hf,BJ Energy conservation b/w J&C: hJ= hC+h l,JC= hC+hf,JC

Assume hJ and check if Q1 + Q2 + Q3 = 0.

If not, iterate by assuming new hJ until ∑ Qi = 0 checks.

Assume

hJ = 100m (elevation+50 m of pressure head)

HYDRAULICS AND OPERATION OF

PUMPED DISCHARGE LINES

• Pump: adds energy to a

fluid, resulting in an increase in pressure across the pump.

• Turbine: extracts energy from the fluid, resulting in

a decrease in pressure across the turbine.

The free surface flow may be prevented by use of a valve at the pipe exit.

Valves control the flow rate by providing a mean to adjust the over all system loss coefficient to the desired value.

• The head loss in valves is mainly a result of dissipation of kinetic energy of a high speed portion of flow.

• when Qin<Qmin , the control valve at the pipe exit will pressurize the flow in the pipe by dissipating the excess kinetic energy, hV, and in turn increasing the water level in the reservoir.

• The magnitude of the valve loss depends on how much one needs to presurize the flow, that is the water depth in the reservoir.

• If the water level is to be kept constant to obtain a certain discharge, a control valve can be chosen accordingly.

Example Consider the reservoir-pipe system given below, with following values.

Reservoir depth hmax=5m, zA=5m, L=2000m, D=0.8m, f=0.02. Determine:

a) The system capacity, Qmax.b) Minimum flowrate, Q0.c) Spill flowrate, if Qin =1.2m3/s.
