Question

Read the question carefully and give me right solution with clear calculations. 

Note: pipe size required to carry the same flow rate at approximately one - third the pressure drop of the 3 in. pipe. 

A 3-in. schedule 40 commercial steel pipe (with an actual inside diameter of 3.068 in.) carries 210°F SAE 40 crankcase oil at the rate of
6.0 gal/min. The oil specific gravity is 0.89, and the absolute viscosity is 6.6 x 10-7 Ib-s/ft2. Calculate the pipe size required to carry the
same flowrate at approximately one-third the pressure drop of the 3-in. pipe. Both pipes are horizontal.
Nominal diameter =
in.
