b) Water is pumped from a lower reservoir and then discharged into the atmosphere as shown in Fig. Q4(b). 1400 liters of water (p=997 kg/m3, u= 0.891 x10-3 kg/m.s) is discharged every minute. The elevation difference is z2 - z1 = 7 m. The diameter of the wrought iron pipe before and after the pump is D = 120 mm. The total pipe length of the piping system is L 40 m. The elbows used are flanged smooth 90° bends. Both valves are angle valves. Calculate the required pump power.

shown in Fig. Q4(b). 1400 liters of water (p = 997 kg/m3, u= 0.891 x10-3 kg/m.s) is
discharged every minute. The elevation difference is zą – 21 =7 m. The diameter of
the wrought iron pipe before and after the pump is D = 120 mm. The total pipe length
of the piping system is L = 40 m. The elbows used are flanged smooth 90° bends.
Both valves are angle valves. Calculate the required pump power.
