Methanol (SG = 0.8335, viscosity is equal to that of water) is being transported from a very large reservoir and is entering at a standard 1.25-in 540 pipe at an absolute pressure of 14.7 psia. The methanol is transported at a total of 1450 ft and passes through 15 standard ells, 5 gate valves (open), 6 tees (standard), and 4 tees (as ell, entering branch). The methanol is discharged 22 ft above the inlet at a gauge pressure of 8 psig. If the fluid flows at a rate of 30 gpm and the pump have an efficiency of 50%, calculate the actual power needed in kW.
Three pipes of 400 mm, 300 mm and 200 mm diameters have lengths of 400 m, 300m, and 200 m respectively. They are connected in series to make a compound pipe. The endsof this compound pipe are connected with two tanks whose difference of water levels is 16 m. If co-efficient of friction for these pipes is same and equal to 0.005, determine the dischargethrough the compound pipe neglecting first the minor losses and then including them. faaaasttt
