MY generator water cooler inlet line height - 11 mtr
inlet water line height - 7 mtr
water come into the line from overhead tank, O/H tank
height - 20 mtr
the first tapping in the inlet line is 2" line which down
to 4 mtr level plateform., second tapping in inlet water
line goes to a pump 6" line installed at 4 mtr level
plateform, pump capacity 200m3/hr, head- 30 mtr, hp-40. the
outlet of pump of 6" water line connected to a header of 6
mtr long of 6" line, on this header the six tapping are
connected, 4 nos. 3" line goes to 11 mtr height water
cooler the pressure of the line is 0.15 to 0.25 kg/cm2, 2"
and 4" pipe line connected to a cooler at 4 mtrlevel
plateform.
my question is, at 11 mtr height level the quantity of
water and flow is not sufficient for my cooler, the temp.
of cooler is rises much more. you are requested to suggest
the modification of pipe line/ pump for take more water
flow and pressure (desired pressure is 1 kg/cm2)



MY generator water cooler inlet line height - 11 mtr inlet water line height - 7 mtr water come in..

Answer / Shitin Kumar

To increase the water flow and pressure at the 11 mtr height level, you can make the following modifications:

1. Increase the diameter of the inlet line from 2" to a larger size such as 3" or 4". This will increase the volume of water flowing through the line and thus increase the flow rate at the cooler.

2. Install a second pump in parallel with the existing one, or upgrade the capacity of the existing pump to 300m3/hr or more, to increase the water flow rate. You can also consider using a higher head pump if possible.

3. Consider installing a pressure boosting system at the cooler location to maintain the desired pressure (1 kg/cm2). This could be achieved by using a pressure tank or a pressure booster pump.

PETROLEUM ENGINEERING - QUESTION 25.1 : Fact 1 : Dry air contains 20.95 % oxygen, 78.09 % nitrogen, 0.93 % argon, 0.039 % carbon dioxide, and small amounts of other gases by volume. Fact 2 : Volume occupied is directly proportional to the number of moles for ideal gases at constant temperature and pressure. Fact 3 : 12.5 moles of pure oxygen is required to completely burn 1 mole of pure octane. Fact 4 : Air-fuel ratio (AFR) is the mass ratio of dry air to fuel present in a combustion process such as in an internal combustion engine or industrial furnace. Fact 5 : Molecular weight of oxygen gas is 31.998 g / mole and molecular weight of nitrogen gas is 28.014 g / mole. (a) Find the molar ratio of nitrogen and oxygen, or (moles of nitrogen) / (moles of oxygen) in dry air, by assuming ideal features of nitrogen and oxygen gases. (b) How many moles of nitrogen are available if dry air is used to completely burn the 1 mole pure octane? (c) Find the mass of fuel of 1 mole of octane with molecular weight of 114.232 g / mole. (d) Find the mass of dry air with 12.5 moles of pure oxygen by assuming only oxygen and nitrogen gases exist in the air. (e) Find the air-fuel ratio (AFR) when octane is used as fuel. (f) Find the fuel-air ratio (FAR) when octane is used as fuel.

The water is superheated steam at 440 degree Celsius and 17.32 megapascals. Estimate the enthalpy of the steam above. From the steam table for water at 440 degree Celsius, enthalpy of steam, h at 18 megapascals is 3103.7 kilojoules per kilogram and at 16 megapascal is 3062.8 kilojoules per kilogram. Assume that h = mP c where P is pressure; m and c are constants at fixed temperature with small differences in P.
