A pipe, 12 inch in diameter at A, discharges 4.0 cfs of heavy fuel oil (sp gr = 0.899) into the air at B, where the diameter is 6 inch. If B is 12 ft above A and the frictional loss between the two points is equivalent to 3.0 lb per sq in, determine the pressure at A in pounds per square inch.
4. Brine (SG = 1.1, viscosity = 1.1cP) is pumped at a rate of 45 ft^3/min (ID = 2.5in) from large open reservoir to the bottom of another open tank. The liquid level in the reservoir is maintained at 5.2ft, and the liquid level in the reservoir and the bottom of the discharge tank are 18ft apart, vertically. Friction losses in the pipe amount to 10% of the elevation head. If 2.15 hp of power is required for the process, what is the expected liquid level in the receiving tank?
Sunflower oil (SG = 0.7, viscosity = 154cP) is pumped at a rate of 85 ft^3/min (ID = 3.5in) from large open reservoir to the bottom of another open tank. The liquid level in the reservoir is maintained at 4.5ft, and the bottoms of the reservoir and tank are 17ft apart, vertically. Friction losses in the pipe amount to 7.5% of the elevation head. If 2 hp of power is required for the process, what is the expected liquid level in the receiving tank?
