| Engineering Question - Fluid Flow? This is the given information: Pipe - 10" sch 160 pipe Liqiud being used - 2,000 GPM (Jet Fuel A) Jet Fuel A Vapor Pressures (lbs. per sq. in.): @ 60 degrees F - 2.0 @ 10 degrees F - .75 @ 80 degrees F - 3.4 1,500ft of straight pipe between two tanks. 120ft elevation difference between them. A pump is located 50ft from the first tank (where the elevation difference occurs) The rest of the 1,450ft of pipe goes straight into the second tank. FIND: The pump HP if m=0.55 & the NPSHA (Net Positive Suction Head): @ 60 degrees F (Jet Fuel Vapor Pressure 2.0) @ 10 degrees F (Jet Fuel Vapor Pressure .75) @ 85 degrees F (Jet Fuel Vapor Pressure 3.4) |
