For crude oil at 60ºC, take ρ = 860 kg/m3 and μ ≈ 0.004 kg/m·s. What would be the maximum rate if the flow were constrained to be laminar? Take π = 22/7.

The pipeline has to be repaired and it is necessary to pump the liquid by an alternative route consisting of 70 m of 200 mm pipe followed by 50 m of 100 mm pipe.
