Q. 1 Gasoline at 20°C is pumped through a smooth 12-cm-diameter pipe 10 km long, at a flow rate of 75 m'/h (330 gal/min). The inlet is fed by a pump at an absolute pressure of 24 atm. The exit is at standard atmospheric pressure and is 150 m higher. Estimate the frictional head loss h, and compare it to the velocity head of the flow V*(2g). (These numbers are quite realistic for liquid flow through long pipelines.)
Gasoline at 20°C is pumped through a smooth pipe at a steady flow and the pipe diameter is constant. The inlet is fed by a pump at an absolute pressure. The exit is at standard atmospheric pressure and is higher elevation than the inlet. The velocity is calculated by 1.336 m/s. Estimate the head velocity flow, assuming that no shaft work, thus hpump=hturbine = 0.
Crude oil (with specific weight γoil = 55 lb/ft3 ) is pumped at a rate of 400 gallons per minute from a test separator at A to the stock tank shown using a pipe that has a diameter of 4 inches. The pressure at A (to the left of the pump or prior to the pump) is 4 psi and the stock tank is open to the atmosphere. The friction head loss along the entire length of the pipe from A to B is 45 inches. Note that 1ft3 = 7.48 gallons. (a) Determine the velocity in the pipe. (b) Determine the head gain, ℎ??, delivered by the pump to the flow. (c) Determine the power required to run the pump if it is 90% efficient.
Gasoline at 20°C is pumped through a smooth 12-cm-diameter pipe 10 km long, at a flow rate of 75 m³/h (330 gal/min). The inlet is fed by a pump at an absolute pressure of 24 atm. The exit is at standard atmospheric pressure and is 150 m higher. Estimate the frictional head loss h, and compare it to the velocity head of the flow V/(2g). (These numbers are quite realistic for liquid flow through long pipelines.)
