The sketch for the warm water heating system of a studio apartment is shown in the figure. The volumetric flow rate of water through the piping system with a diameter of 0.0162 m is 0.000162 m3/s. the pipes used in the system are made of galvanized pipes (roughness value ε = 0.015mm). The minor loss coefficients for each fitting are for the elbow piece (KL=2,62), the heater corner valve(KL=5,62), the radiator(KL=3,62), the gate valve(KL=1,62) and the boiler (KL=4,62). Assuming that the density of water is1000 kg/m3, determine the power required to derive the circulation pump, which has an efficiency of 76,2 percent. Solve the problem by making the necessary assumptions and drawing the schematic figure. (a=6 and b=2 on the figure)
