Water at 15°c is to be discharged from a reservoir at a rate of 18 l/s using two horizontal cast iron pipes connected in series and a pump between them. the first pipe is 20 m long and has a 6-cm diameter, while the second pipe is 35 m long and has a 3-cm diameter. the water level in the reservoir is 30 m above the centerline of the pipe. the pipe entrance is sharp-edged, and losses associated with the connection of the pump are negligible. neglecting the effect of the kinetic energy correction factor, determine the required pumping head and the minimum pumping power to maintain the indicated flow rate.

Air (c-1.006 kj/kg.k, r-0.287 kj/kg.k) enters a nozzle steadily at 280 kpa and 77°c with a velocity of 50 m/s and exits at 85 kpa and 320 m/s. the heat losses from the nozzle to the surrounding medium at 20°c are estimated to be 3.2 kj/kg. determine (a) the exit temperature and (b) the total entropy change for this process. solve this problem using constant specific heats.
