Assume that the water temperature is 10°C and the depth of the settling tank is 3.0 m (9.80 ft). Calculate the theoretical settling velocity (cm/s), tank loading (m3/m2/d) and detention time (h) required for the complete removal of the following particles in a settling tank. Assume discrete particle settling A. Sand particles with a relative density of 2.65 and dia. of 0.001 cm to be removed in a presettling tank B. Alum floc with a relative density of 1.002 and dia. of 1.0 mm to be removed in a settling tank after coagulation. C. What will be the corresponding design loading rate and detention time for the above cases if the efficiency of the settling basins is 50%, assuming the removal is linearly related to efficiency?

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.
