Biginch but if i were to use a pump at the start of that piece of pipe it has to push against the head of the pipe as well as the head of the elevation, pipe head = 2.07 mtrs + elevation of 5 metres the pump would have to increase to a pressure equivalant of 7.07 metres as in your equation the...
Suprisingly no flow rates wer recorded when the pipeline was commissioned in 1983 so it leaves us flying blind. On another note my static pressure reading at reservoir B with no water flow is 90 PSI be it 1.4 PSI in a metre this equates to a head of water above reservoir B of 64.28 Metres, is...
Latexman these flow tests are done at points along the pipe at scour valves where an isolation valve is fitted just downstream of each scour valve to prevent any back flow using an 80 mm calibrated flow metre, distances from reservoirs are all taken in metres from supply reservoir, elevations...
Katmar the pipe is 104.6 mm ID PVC Type P Class 9 AS1477-1973 my measured flow rates have been checked numerous times & the pipe is the same diameter for the entire distance, at a distance of 8000 Metres with a head of 61 Metres i have a flow of 630 L/Min Yet At a distance of 8400 metres with a...
In regards to my earlier posting the ID of the pipe is 104.6 Milimetres AMSL Stands For Above Mean Sea Level, the pipe is 10000 metres long one pipe from reseroir A To Reservoir B with flow measurements taken at intervals with isolation & Scour valves along the pipe to try and determine a point...
I Have a problem with a pipe installation & trying to Calculate what flow of water i should have to find the problem I have a reservoir 160 metres AMSL 10000 metres of class 9 PVC Pipe Into another reservoir 113 metres AMSL the measured flow into the reservoir is 310 L/Min, at a point 5800...
