Propose a centrifugal pump (brand and model) to transport 10 L/s of a fluid with a density of 1500 kg/m3 from a tank located on the first floor to a reactor on the second floor of the plant (8 meters in height). The reactor's operating pressure is 30 psig; the fluid is at 20 °C, and its viscosity is 15 cp. The pipeline on the pump discharge is 30 meters long (considering accessories are included). Neglect pressure losses in the pump suction. Propose the pipe diameter, schedule 40, commercial steel. Make any necessary assumptions. Select a pump capable of delivering a maximum flow of 15 L/s (remember that normal operation will be at 10 L/s) and discuss the price paid for this condition. Provide a copy of the pump curve indicating the operating point. Also, calculate the power consumption of the pump.

1. A piston-cylinder is producing a viscous oil flow, which has the flow rate of Q, radius R=1.5 mm, and stroke L-5 mm. The fluid density is p = 800 kg/m³ and the viscosity is μ = 0.5 Pa-s. The pressure to drive the flow is p=6.25 Pa. a. How many non-dimensional groupings can be obtained? Derive them. b. If the flow transitions at Re = PV(2R) =2300. Is the generated flow laminar or turbulent given Q=20 mL/s? LL c. Assume the pressure gradient is uniform on the cross-section and can be calculated using OP=-. The velocity profile in the cylinder is u(r) = ax - [1-(²]. Sketch the velocity profile. Calculate the shear stress at the R² ap 2UÔI cylinder wall and label the direction. d. Calculate the flow rate Q with the velocity profile in (c).. e. If the shear stress is uniform over the cross-section, i.e. T = C, what's the pressure gradient distribution and sketch it? L L. R

Water with a density of 1 g/cm³ flows through a horizontal pipe. The pipe cross-section tapers from 80 cm² to 40 cm² at a reducer. The static pressure before the reducer is 4 bar and the flow velocity is 4 m/s. The flow is incompressible and frictionless (inviscid). What static pressure is measured after the reducer?

Solve it fast,,, hand written solution please.
