Crude oil (mu = 40cp, sg = 0.87) is to be pumped from a storage tank to a refinery through a 10in. sch 20 commercial steel pipeline at a flow rate of 2000 gpm. the pipeline is 50mi long and contains 35 90degrees elbows and 10 open gate valves. the pipeline exit is 150 ft higher than the entrance, and the exit pressure is 25 psig. what horsepower is required to drive the pumps in the system if they are 70% efficient?

Apump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. the inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 lbf/in.2, and 180°f, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 60 lbf/in.2 the pump requires 1/15 hp of power input. water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 lb/ft3 and constant specific heat of 1 btu/lb or. neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, determine the temperature change, in °r, as the water flows through the pump.

During a steady flow process, the change of energy with respect to time is zero. a)- true b)- false

At 12 noon, the count in a bacteria culture was 400; at 4: 00 pm the count was 1200 let p(t) denote the bacteria cou population growth law. find: (a) an expression for the bacteria count at any time t (b) the bacteria count at 10 am. (c) the time required for the bacteria count to reach 1800.
