Question
A molten lead at 900 °F flows in a nominal 2
inch diameter, schedule 40 stainless steel
pipe between two tanks with a flow rate of Q
= 0.245 ft/s. The surface of the tank from
which the lead flows is 8 ft higher than the
surface of the outlet tank. Both the inlet and
outlet fittings are reentrant. There are also
two flanged, 90 degree bends in the pipe
system. What is the total length of the pipe?
The interior surface roughness of the pipe is 5
x 10-5 ft. The density of molten lead is 650
Ibm/ft, the dynamic viscosity of molten lead
is 1.296x10-3 lbm/(ft s). (Answer: 24 ft)
K=0.8+2(0.)+1.05 or K=2.45 I believe
