8.) A liquid having a sp.gr. of 20 is flowing in a 50 mm diameter pipe. The total head at a
given point was found to be 17.5 Joule per Newton. The elevation of the pipe above the datum is 3 m and the pressure in the pipe is 65.6 kPa. Compute the velocity of flow and
the horsepower in the stream at that point.

Example Problem
The fluid being pumped is oil with a specific gravity of 0.86. Calculate the energy delivered by the pump to the
oil per unit weight of oil flowing in the system. Energy losses in the system are caused by check valve and
friction losses as the fluid flows through the piping. The magnitude of such losses has been determined to be
1.86 N.m/N.
