Problem 16 - Bernoulli's Energy Theorem

Problem 16
A pump (Figure 4-07) takes water from a 200-mm suction pipe and delivers it to a 150-mm discharge pipe in which the velocity is 3.6 m/s. The pressure is -35 kPa at A in the suction pipe. The 150-mm pipe discharges horizontally into air at C. To what height h above B can the water be raised if B is 1.8 m above A and 20 hp is delivered to the pump? Assume that the pump operates at 70 percent efficiency and that the frictional loss in the pipe between A and C is 3 m.

Problem 15 - Bernoulli's Energy Theorem

Problem 15
A pump (Figure 4-07) takes water from a 200-mm suction pipe and delivers it to a 150-mm discharge pipe in which the velocity is 2.5 m/s. At A in the suction pipe, the pressure is -40 kPa. At B in the discharge pipe, which is 2.5 m above A, the pressure is 410 kPa. What horsepower would have to be applied by the pump if there were no frictional losses?
