For a 12-in-diameter concrete pipe 12.000 ft long, find the diameter of a 1000-ft-long equivalent pipe.
I Assume a flow rate of 3.0 cfs. (The result should be the same regardless of the flow rate assumed.) From Fig.
A.13, with D = 12in and Q =3.0ft?/s, hy = 0.0052 ft/ft. Therefore, hy = (0.0052)(12 000) = 62.40 ft. For a
1000-ft-long equivalent pipe with the same head loss, f= 62.40/1000 = 0.06240 ft/ft. From Fig. A-13, with
+h, = 0.06240 ft/ft and Q = 3.0 ft/s, D=7.3in.
‘A 480-ft-long, 18-in-diameter concrete pipe and a 590-ft-long, 12-in-diameter concrete pipe are connected in

).00180 ft/ft. For the 12-in-diameter pipe, = 0.0137 ft/ft. The total head loss for both pipes is
(0.00180)(480) + (0.0137)(590) = 8.947 ft. For a 10-in-diameter pipe with Q = 5.0 cfs, from Fig. A-13,
+h, = 0.032 ft/ft. Since the equivalent pipe must have the same head loss as that of the system it replaces (i.e...
8.947 ft), the required length of a 10-in-diameter equivalent pipe can now be determined by 0.032L = 8.947,
L = 280 ft. Note that the required length of pipe can be determined in a single computation as follows:
.00180)(480)/0.032 + (0.0137)(590)/0.032 = 280 ft.

I Assume a flow rate of 0.1 m’/s. For the 300-mm-diameter pipe, from Fig. A-14, h, = 0.0074 m/m. For the

I From Fig. A-13, for h, = 5.0/1000, or 0.005, and d = 8in, Q = 1.0cfs. For d = 16 in, Q = 6.6 cfs. For
d=24in, Q = 17 cfs. Thus it would take 6.6/1.0, or 6.6 eight-in pipes to be hydraulically equivalent to a 16-in
pipe of the same relative roughness. Likewise, 17/1.0, or 17 eight-in pipes are equivalent to a 24-in pipe for a
head loss of 5.0 ft/1000 ft, ot for any other head loss condition.

A series piping system consists of 6000 ft of 20-in new cast iron pipe, 4000 ft of 16-in, and 2000 ft of 12-in pipe.
‘Convert the system to an equivalent length of 16-in pipe.
Hf Assume a value of Q of 3.8 cfs. For new cast iron, C = 130. In order to use Fig. A-13, change Q30 to Q120.

+, = (0.00064) (6000) + (0.00187)(4000) + (0.0070)(2000) = 25.32 ft. The equivalent 16-in pipe must carry 3.8 cfs
with a head loss of 25.32 ft (C = 130). Hence, 25.32/L, = 0.00187, L. = 13 540 ft.
Convert the system of Prob. 10.12 to an equivalent size pipe 12.000 ft long.
1 The 12.000 ft of pipe, C = 130, must carry 3.8 cfs with a head loss of 25.32 ft. Hence, hy = 25.32/12 000 =

For the compound piping system described in Prob. 10.12, what flow will be produced for a total head loss of
70.08?
I From Prob, 10.12, 13 540 ft of 16-in pipe is equivalent to the compound system. For a head loss of 70.0 ft,
+h, = 70.0/13 540 = 0.00517. From Fig. A-13, Q = 6.3 cfs. This is for C= 120. For new cast iron pipe (C= 130),
= (B)(6.3) = 6.8.fs.
For the system shown in Fig. 10-7, when the flow from reservoir A to main D is 3.25 mgd, the pressure at D is
20.0 psi. The flow to D must be increased to.4.25 mgd with the pressure at 40.0 psi. What size pipe, 5000 ft long,
should be laid from B to C (shown dashed) parallel to the existing 12-in pipe to accomplish this?
I The elevation of reservoir A can be determined as follows: Q = (3.25 x 10*)/{(7.48)(86 400)] = 5.03 cfs.
From Fig. A-13, (f,)s. = 0.0038 ft/ft, (/,)j2 = 0.0150 ft/ft. These values of h, are for C = 120; they must be
adjusted for C = 100:
(ha)se = (488)(0.0038) = 0.0046 ft/ft (As) 1a = (48)(0.0150) = 0.018 ft/ft
(hye = (0.0046)(8000) = 36.8 ft (hy ia = (0.018)(5000) = 90.0 ft hy rou = 36.8 + 90.0 = 126.8 ft
‘The hydraulic grade line drops 126.8 ft to an elevation of 46.2ft above D (the equivalent of 20.0 psi). Thus
reservoir A is 126.8 + 46.2, of 173.0 t above point D. For a pressure of 40.0 psi, the elevation of the hydraulic
grade line at D will be 92.4 ft above D, or the available head for the flow of 4.25 mgd will be 173.0-92.4, or
80.6{t. In the 16-in pipe with Q = 4.25 mgd, or 6.58 cfs, (y)i« = 0.0062 ft/ft for C = 120.
For C= 100: (H,)sa= (48)(0.0062) = 0.0074 ft/ft, (hip), = (0.0074) (8000) = 59.2 ft, (hy Jac = 80.6 — 59.
21.4f.
For the existing 12-in pipe: (/t,)1.= 21.4/5000 = 0.0043 ft/ft, Q,2=2.7 ofs for C = 120.
For C = 100, Q2 = (1%)(2.7) = 2.3 cfs. The flow in the new pipe must be 6.58 — 2.3, or 4.28 cfs with an available
head (drop in the hydraulic grade line) of 21.4 ft from B to C. hy = 21.4/5000 = 0.0043 ft/ft. From Fig. A-13,
D=14in, approximately.
