Gravity Flow Pipe Exercise

Solve for flows and pressures in gravity flow pipe system

[@PeymanSayyadi]

Great tutorial, thanks for sharing this. Surprisingly we don't have enough engineers in the industry who can do these simple calculations.

[@carloschuecos7014]

Excellent!

How did you come up with the 2" pipe Total head at point D to equal 232. Shouldn't it be 1200ft - 67.2 = 1132ft (at 11:15 in the video)? Thank you for the video. Oops it was corrected at 13:26.

Thanks sir ! can you add something on topographic survey of gravity pipe line

[@jamesbaraza5376]

Please share the tutorial in metric units

Thanks Sir.

sir thank you

dear sir how i can get the hard copy of these caculation?

[@meenasubba7353]

Could you please tell me how to fix the issue that occurred in 1.5 inch pipe due to suction?i’ve the similar problem so now i need to fix it

[@raqeebjawid3704]

any reply you have recieve please I have same prblm

Dear @@raqeebjawid3704 send me the details of your system for the rectifications

[@rajeshwarraobandari5747]

for the above-shown model example, for 55GPM demand/flowrate, may be provided 2" size dia pipeline upto peak point (C) and the pipe size 1.5" to the remaining pipe length to avoid negative pressures at the peak point for 55GPM demand/flowrate. and provide an air valve at peak point (C) in just downstream side of the point (C) to avoid negative pressures at maximum possible gravity flow situations if any.

sir can you explain how you get the value of 0.433 psi/ft

[@thomassoerens246]

P = gamma of water x head (height of water) = 62.4 lb/ft3 x h(ft) = P in lb/ft2 (gamma fresh water = 62.4 lb/ft3 at normal temps) converting to psi = 62.4 lb/ft3 x h(ft) x 1 ft2/144in2 ((12in)^2 = 144 in2) 62.4/144 = 0.433 P in psi = 0.433 x h in ft or h in ft = 2.31 x P in psi

[@klyptod4158]

Can you please sir give the height in meter not in ft....gamma fresh water also in kg/m3
