An existing 36-inch diameter concrete gravity sewer installed on a slope of 0.25% currently conveys a peak flow rate of 12 cfs. A builder proposes to connect a new residential development to this existing sewer. Projected peak flow from this new development is 4 cfs.

a) Depth of flow in sewer before new development is connected

b) Depth of flow in sewer after new development is connected

c) Flow velocity in sewer after new development is connected

d) Flow type (critical, subcritical or supercritical) after new development is connected

e) Diameter of a sewer to convey combined peak flow of 16 cfs if maximum allowable D/d is 0.85 (i.e. assume you are designing new sewer on the same 0.25% slope)

A 12-inch diameter cast iron pipe conveys 1500 gpm of liquid at an industrial facility. At one point in the pipe, call it point A, a gage indicates that the pressure is 45 psi. Another point in the pipe, call it point B, is 175 ft downstream of point A (measured along the pipe). (a) Determine the head loss (ft) between points A and B if the liquid is: (i) SAE 30 oil at 60°F; (ii) water at 60°F. (b)...

Turpentine flows by gravity from tank 1 to tank 2 through 24 m of 1.5-inch diameter commercial steel pipe. Both tanks are open to atmosphere. The tanks are large, so assume that the level of turpentine in both tanks remains the same with time. The level of tank 1 is 15 m higher than the level of tank 2 (indicated on the schematic as z1 and z2). There are two standard 90° elbows and one open gate valve in the...
