Design & SizingCâu 28 / 110
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?
a.18 psi
b.33 psi
c.43 psi
d.25 psi
Giải thích
Available for friction = static - elevation - meter - fixture requirement = 68 - 20 - 8 - 15 = 25 psi. This leftover is spread over the developed length to set the allowable friction rate per 100 ft. If friction loss at the chosen pipe size exceeds 25 psi, the pipe must be enlarged.

- A sewage ejector pump must handle a building with a discharge of 30 gpm against 18 ft of total head. Using WHP = (gpm x head in ft) / 3,960, what is the water horsepower?
- 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?
- 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?
