For the system shown in Fig. 8.17, compute the power delivered by the pump to the water to pump 50 gal/min of water at 60°F to the tank. The air in the tank is at 40 psig. Consider the friction loss in the 225-ft-long discharge pipe, but neglect other losses. Then, redesign the system by using a larger pipe size to reduce the energy loss and reduce the power required to no more than 5.0 hp.
