The 800-mile-long Trans-Alaska pipeline is designed to carry 4.4×10 7 gallons per day of crude oil (SG = 0.86, kinematic viscosity = 4.95×10 −5 ). The 4-ft-dia pipe is made of galvanized iron. Determine the total pressure drop in psi over the length of the pipeline. If there are nine equally spaced pumps, estimate the horse power each pump must deliver to compensate the pressure loss.
