A pump draws propane at 110° F (sg = 0.48) from a tank whose level is 30 in above the pump inlet. The energy losses in the suction line total 0.73 ft and the atmospheric pressure is 14.32 psia. Determine the required pressure above the propane in the tank to ensure that the NPSH available is at least 4.0 ft.
