An oil with a density of 340 lbm / ft3 and a viscosity of 15 cp is in a very large and atmospheric cylinder-shaped tank. The oil is 5 ft. High from the bottom. It will be pumped to the top of a tank at a rate of 30 gal / min with a system of 3 inches inside diameter and 75 ft. Length of steel pipe, 1 full open slide valve, 1 T connection and 4 90 ° bends. The cross section of the entry point of the tank is very large and is 40 ft high from the bottom. The atmospheric pressure is 14.7 psi and the pressure in the absorption tower is 64.7 psi. A pump with 70% efficiency is used. What should be the required pump power in this job? (Be sure to draw a shape, 10 points).

    The system below shows a simplified schematic of an oil transfer system between tanks, from left to right: L L The oil specific gravity is 0.77 and its viscosity is 2.7 [cP). The pipes are horizontal and coaxial (neglect difference in height between suction and discharge). The tanks are closed but vented so that they are at atmospheric pressure ([atm]). Assume for simplicity that the liquid level in each tank is 2.5 (m) above the level of the pipes (in...
