Chapter 11, Problem 11.47PP

Figure 11.33 shows a part of a chemical processing system in which propyl alcohol at 25 ° C is taken from the bottom of a large tank and transferred by gravity to another part of the system. The length between the two tanks is 7.0 m. A filter is installed in the line and is known to have a resistance coefficient K of 8.5 based on the pipe velocity head. Drawn stainless steel tubing is to be used. Specify the standard size of tubing from Appendix G.2 that would allow a volume flow rate of 150 L/min.

A self-priming centrifugal pump is used to pump water at 25°C from a reservoir whose surface is 2.2 m below the centerline of the pump inlet. The pipe is PVC pipe with an ID of 26.0 mm and negligible average inner roughness height. The pipe length from the submerged pipe inlet to the pump inlet is 2.8 m. There are only two minor losses in the piping system from the pipe inlet to the pump inlet: a sharp-edged reentrant inlet (KL = 0.85), and a flanged smooth 90° regular elbow (KL = 0.3). The pump’s required net positive suction head is provided by the manufacturer as a curve fit: NPSHrequired = 2.2 m + [0.0013 m/(Lpm)2 ]V.2 , where volume flow rate is in Lpm. Estimate the maximum volume flow rate (in units of Lpm) that can be pumped without cavitation.
Water (15 C) is transported from an open reservoir to the atmosphere through a new cast iron pipe (d = 4 in). At the end of the pipe there is a fully open gate valve. Evaluate the maximum flow rate (gal / min) through the pipe.
Water is pumped from a reservoir to a tank with a lift of 20.0 ft. The suction pipe, which connects the reservoir to the pump, has a 12in diameter and is 25ft long. The discharge pipe, which connects the pump to the tank, has a 10in diameter and is 450ft long. Both pipes may be classified as clean, smooth cast iron pipes. The suction pipe projects into the reservoir and discharge pipe projects into the tank. Considering all losses, calculate the horsepower required to operate the pump to discharge 1346 gpm into the tank.
