Calculation of Height of The Siphon System

The document summarizes the calculation of pressure losses for a pumping system transporting water. It details the system requirements of transporting 1200 l/s of water through 150 meters of 1050mm diameter piping. It then lists the pressure losses associated with different pipe fittings such as elbows, tees, valves, and changes in pipe diameter. The total pressure loss is calculated to be 0.398 meters.

Total System Loss 0.42 m
Calculation of height of Siphon System
Velocity Head Loss Hv = 0.10 m
Vapour Pressure Pv = 0.4798 m
Friction Loss in Pipeline Hp = 0.42 m
(at 32 Degree C)
Atmospheric Pressure Patm = 10.133 m
Therefore highest point
The required height of
Siphon System h= Patm-(Pv+1.5Hv+Hp) L= 150
resrvoir h
h= 9.08 m
Actually use 75 % to 80% of calculated value

h= 6.81 m pump discharge


The height of the siphon system is 6.81 meter from high water level.
