Question

A submersible pump can maintain a flow rate of 46.0 gal/min through a 1.5 inch diameter pipe, provided the vertical change of the flow is less than 5 feet.

1. What is the flow rate in m³/s? (use 1 m³ = 264 gal)

2. What is the fluid speed in the pipe? (use 1.0 inch = 2.54 cm)

3. What pressure change would occur in this pipe while moving water vertically upwards to a height of 4.0 meters while maintaining a constant flow rate? Express your answer in lb/in².
