A pumped fluid distribution system is being designed to deliver 400 gal/min of water to a cooling system in a power generation plant. Use the figure below to make an initial selection of Schedule 40 pipe sizes for the suction and discharge lines for the system. Also, solve for the actual average velocity of flow for each pipe.
Inorder to achieve a liquid flow rate of 500 gal/min with a maximum pressure difference of 42 psi, calculate the value of valve flow coefficient. The specific gravity of liquid is 1.3.
Imagine the plug in the sink described in Problem 8.31 leaks. If it now takes 45 seconds to fill the sink to its rim, estimate the volumetric flow rate of the leak.
