48 GRAVITY PIPELINES 0.5 m/s < V < m/s (p/γ) > 5m h valve control valve The pipelines through which flow is maintained by the action of gravity are known as gravity pipelines. A control valve might be used to control the discharge and pressure

49 Because of limits set forth on velocity and pressure head there are lower and upper bounds for the discharge through a gravity pipeline. Consider the following schematic representation of a gravity pipeline system shown below Q in spillway h max h res A za ±0 B;valve Energy Equation between points (A) & (B) is: H A H B +h L, or in open form: P V P V A A B B z + h + + z + h A res B B γ g γ g h L

50 P V P V A A B B z + h + + z + h h A res B B γ g γ g L P A P B 0, V A 0, and z B 0. h ma x h res Q in A z A spillwa y ±0 B;valve the maximum value of V m/s. V g Ü x9.81 B h f 8f π where K L 0. gd 8f 5 π m Q L gd ˆcan be 5 KQ, Ë h f neglected KQ

51 Therefore, Energy Equation becomes: h res + z A h f KQ out ËQ out [( h + z )/ K] res A 1/ (note that since V < m/s velocity heads are neglected!) A relationship between Q and the reservoir level can be obtained as: Q h res + K z A h ma x h res Q in A z A spillwa y ±0 B;valve

52 For a full reservoir h res h max QQ max h Q A max h max h max Q Q K + z A max ( ) since z and K are constants maximum discharge that may occur in the pipeline system is called The system capacity For empty reservoir h res 0 Q Q min Q 0 Q 0 is the minimum flow rate, which will pressurize the pipe, in other words, it is the minimum flow rate for a full pipe flow. Therefore Q 0 z A K

53 If Q max < Q in hh max ; Q spill Q in -Q max If Q min < Q in <Q max 0< h res <h max ; Q spill 0 If Q in < Q min to prevent free flow the valve is partially closed Q in A spill h max QQ max h res z A A Q in < Q< Q max ±0 QQ 0 B Valve

54 Valve and free surface The free surface flow may be prevented by use of a valve at the pipe exit. Valves control the flow rate by providing a mean to adjust the over all system loss coefficient to the desired value.

55 Consider the same system with a valve at the end of the pipe: A h A Datum z A B Energy Equation between points (A) & (B): H A H B +h f +h V, or in open form:

56 P V P V z + h + A + A z + h + B + B + h + A res γ g B B γ g f h V P A P B 0, V A V B 0, and z B 0. Also h f KQ & the local loss can also be written as h V K V Q Therefore: z A +h A (K+K V )Q, solving for Q: Q z A K + h + K res V Datum A h A z A B

57 Valve Conditions Q z A K + h + K res V when valve is closed K V Therefore Q0. Openining of the valve reduces the value of K V, producing a desired flow rate.

58 The head loss in valves is mainly a result of dissipation of kinetic energy of a high speed portion of flow. when Q in <Q min, the control valve at the pipe exit will pressurize the flow in the pipe by dissipating the excess kinetic energy, h V, and in turn increasing the water level in the reservoir. The magnitude of the valve loss depends on how much one needs to presurize the flow, that is the water depth in the reservoir. If the water level is to be kept constant to obtain a certain discharge, a control valve can be chosen accordingly.

59 Example Consider the reservoir-pipe system given below, with following values. Reservoir depth h max 5m, z A 5m, L000m, D0.8m, f0.0. Determine: ) The system capacity, Q max. ) Minimum flowrate, Q 0. ) Spill flowrate, if Q in 1.m 3 /s. ) Valve loss, h v, if Q in 0.5m 3 /s. Q A QQ max h max h A Q 0 <Q<Q max Z A QQ 0 B Datum valve

60 Solution If minor losses except hv (valve loss) are neglected, Q out 1/ hres + z 8fL A K K gπ D Q max / 1.0 m 3 / s Q min / 0.70 m 3 / s If inflow is 1. m 3 / s Q spill 0.0 m 3 / s h res + z A h V + KQ in h V z A KQ in h V (0.5) h V.48 m

62 Selection of Pipe Diameter: Velocity Depending on the type of pipe material a lower and an upper limits are set for the velocity as: 0.5 m/s < V < m/s;

63 Selection of Pipe Diameter: Pressure To prevent air entrainment minimum pressure head, (p/γ)min permitted along the pipeline is 5m. The Range of Pressure Transmission line City Network 0 30 P / γ P / γ 80 (m) (m)
