2. Global warming. Schroeder presents a simple model for the greenhouse effect, that overestimates the effect of the atmosphere on the surface temperature. (a) Suppose the atmosphere has emissivity $e$ instead of being a perfect black body. How does this modify the prediction for the surface temperature? Find the value of $e$ needed to explain the observed temperature 288 K. (b) To estimate the effect of $CO_2$ emissions, we need to know how $e$ is related to the fraction $f$ of $CO_2$ comprising the atmosphere. For small $f$ the relation should be linear, but as $f$ becomes large, $e$ cannot exceed unity. Find a simple function $e(f)$ having these properties, and use it to predict how $e$ changes if $f$ is increased by 50%. How much does the predicted temperature of the earth increase?

596 Chapter 11 / Flows in Piping Systems 11.43 Design an irrigation system for part or all of the 18-hole golf course shown in Fig. P11.43. The requirements are as follows: 1. Place the sprinkler couplings at approximately 30-m intervals along the fairway centerline. The flow rate from each sprinkler is to be 2.5 L/s. A maximum of two sprinklers on each fairway are to be in operation at any time. 2. Place four sprinklers around the periphery of each green. The flow rate from each sprinkler is to be 2.5 L/s. A maximum of three sprin- klers on each green are to be in operation at any time. As an alternative to specifying the sprinkler flow rate, specify the loss coefficient across each sprinkler (e.g., try $K_L = 35$), and with successive trials, adjust it until the desired flow rate is achieved. 3. Water is to be pumped from the well shown. The maximum possible flow from the well is 125 L/s. Work with useful power in order to satisfy the system demand. 4. System pressure is to be 550 \(\pm\) 70 kPa at all locations, and the design velocity in each pipe is not to exceed 1.5 m/s. Use smooth plastic piping and fittings throughout.
