The below figure shows a pump that transfers a steady stream of 35◦API crude oil from an oiltanker to a refinery storage tank, both free surfaces being open to the atmosphere. Theeffective length—including fittings—of the commercial steel pipe is 6,000 ft. The dischargeat point 4 is 200 ft above the pump exit, which is level with the free surface of oil in thetanker. However, because of an intervening hill, point 3 is at a higher altitude than point 4.Losses between points 1 and 2 may be ignored.The crude oil has the following properties:Density ρ = 53 lbm/ft 3 ; Viscosity μ = 13.2 cP; Vapour Pressure Pv = 4.0 psia Answer the following questions:1.
