In a pumping system, a smooth pipeline with an inner diameter of 10 cm is used to transfer liquid between two tanks. In the system where the fluid being transferred is water, it is transported from the lower tank to another tank. Calculate the total friction loss term where the transfer rate is 10 L/s. NOTE1: Note that the flow is turbulent and friction losses are caused by sudden contraction, sudden expansion and elbows. (Pwater 1000 kg/m3; Hwater = 0,001 kg/m.s) NOTE2: Consider that identical tanks are open to the atmosphere and the cross- sectional area of the tank is much larger than that of the pipe (Atank>>Apipe). NOTE3: Assume that there are 2 elbows (K, 90° 0.75) along the pipeline in the system.
