Design & SizingCâu 108 / 110
A demand of 62 gpm must be delivered with an available friction pressure of 24 psi over a 200 ft developed length. What is the allowable friction loss per 100 ft used to size the pipe?
a.4 psi/100 ft
b.8 psi/100 ft
c.24 psi/100 ft
d.12 psi/100 ft
Giải thích
Allowable loss per 100 ft = (available pressure / developed length) x 100 = (24 / 200) x 100 = 12 psi per 100 ft. This uniform rate is read against the 62 gpm demand on the friction chart to choose the smallest adequate pipe. Spreading the full 24 psi over the whole run gives the per-100-ft design value.

- A sewage sump receiving a peak inflow of 45 gpm is served by a pump that discharges 90 gpm when running. If useful storage between pump-on and pump-off is 30 gallons, how long does one pump-down cycle (running time) last during peak inflow?
- Two demand loads combine on a main: branch A carries 40 WSFU and branch B carries 60 WSFU. If the Hunter demand chart converts 100 WSFU (predominantly flush tanks) to about 44 gpm, what design flow sizes the main?
- A meter and service must supply 44 gpm. The static supply is 68 psi, elevation loss is 20 psi, the meter loss is 8 psi, and the most remote fixture needs 15 psi. How much pressure remains for pipe friction?
- An individual vent serving a lavatory is 1-1/2 in. The vent sizing table limits a 1-1/2 in vent to a maximum developed length of 150 ft at the fixture-unit load carried. If the vent run is 90 ft, is the vent acceptable and why?
- A hot-water line is limited to a maximum velocity of 5 ft/s. Using v = 0.408 x Q / d^2, what is the maximum flow through a pipe with a 0.785 in inside diameter (nominal 3/4 in type L copper)?
