An overzealous safety engineer added 5 shutoff valves to 25 ft of steel piping of diameter 3 inches. If the typical flow rate through the system is 10 gal/min, what is the friction loss associated with the open valves? If the cost of electrical power is $0.10/kW-hr, how much money will this cost over the course of 1 year? (Neglect any inefficiencies in the pump.)
