reservoir at atmospheric pressure at a rate of 35ft3/s to a tank at atmospheric pressure. The water level in the reservoir is 5ft below the pump. If the total head loss in the suction pipe is 3ft, is the pump safe from cavitation effects? If a 2-in schedule 40 pipe of 100m length was used downstream of the pump, what is the power delivered to the fluid? You may assume that the friction factor in the pipe is equal to 0.004 . The flow rate downstream of the pump is to be measured by an orifice meter of 1 inch diameter. If the pressure differential across the meter is measured using a U-tube manometer operating with mercury (density of 13,600kg/m3 ), can you estimate the additional energy losses due to having the orifice installed
