What is the Reynolds number for the pipe section BE in the diagram?
Known values;
mean velocity: v= 15.2 m/s
density of water: p= 1000 kg/m^3
Diameter of pipe: D = 0.411m
Pressure drop across the condenser for the cooling water: ΔpCD = 17.5 kPa
Temperature rise in the condenser for the cooling water: ΔTCD = 11.5 oC
The cool water basin temperature: 16.5 oC
Elevation difference between BE ΔZBE= 4.4 m
Velocity at the surface of the cool water basin: CB = 0 m/s
Velocity at the exit of the warm water spray: Same as velocity in the pipe

Find the absolute value of specific work input required my pumps 3 and 4 in J/kg I will include all the data I have as I'm not sure what is relevant to determine this. Pump1 at the reactor zone electrical power consumption: Ppump1 = 21 kW Pump2 between condenser and steam generator electrical power consumption: Ppump2 = 781.1 kW Power output from turbine: WT = 46,642.2 kW Pressure drop across the condenser for the cooling water: ΔpCD = 24.1...
The figure below shows a condenser/cooling tower pipe system needed to remove heat from a water cooled refrigeration condenser and reject the heat to the atmosphere. The amount of heat to be rejected to the atmosphere is 480,000 Btu/hr. The water enters the condenser at 85"F, and the temperature rise of the water through the condenser is 10°F. The total length of the piping in the system is 60 ft. Fittings are as shown. Assume bends to be as shown...
