A pump delivers 1 hp to a water at 68°F flowing in a 10-in-diameter horizontal, cast iron pipe at V = 6.6 ft/s. Estimate the proper pipe length (in feet) that will match these conditions. For water at 68°F: p = 1.94 slug/(ft^3), and u = 2.09E-5 slug/(ft-s). Assume also that the head added by pump %3D matches the head loss.

A Keystone Pipeline has a diameter of 36 inches and a design flow rate of 590,000 barrels per day of crude oil at 40ºC. Estimate the pump horsepower required if the length of the pipe is 2.9 mile(s). The pipe material is new steel. For crude oil at 40ºC, take μ ≈ 0.0053 kg/m-s ÷ 47.88 = 0.0000111 slug/ft-s. The density, with SG = 0.86, is 0.86(1.94) = 1.67 slug/ft3. Take f ≈ 0.0155. Answer is in hp. Last answer was wrong! please help!

A Francis radial-flow hydroturbine is being designed with the following dimensions: r2 = 2.00 m, r1 = 1.42 m, b2 = 0.731 m, and b1 = 2.20 m. The runner rotates at n. = 180 rpm. The wicket gates turn the flow by angle ?2 = 30° from radial at the runner inlet, and the flow at the runner outlet is at angle ?1 = 10° from radial. The volume flow rate at design conditions is 340 m3 /s, and the gross head provided by the dam is Hgross = 90.0 m. For the preliminary design, irreversible losses are neglected. Calculate the turbine specific speed of the turbine. Provide answers in both dimensionless form and in customary U.S. units. Is it in the normal range for a Francis turbine? If not, what type of turbine would be more appropriate?
