An oil pipeline is to be constructed in which it is known that the fluid friction between the oil and the pipe walls will cause a loss in pressure of 100 Pa for every meter of pipe (friction losses will be dealt with in Chapter 6). Also, pumps are to be used that provide a pressure rise of 1.0 MPa for each pump. How far apart can the pumps be spaced? The vapor pressure of the oil is 20 kPa, and the surrounding atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa.
