i want complete answers step by step Details pipe Diameterm
Solution
Given: d = 225 mm = 0.225 m, h = 14 m, L = 15600 m,
Q = 92000 barrels/day = 0.127 m3/s
The crude oil at 20oC has following properties
= 855 Kg/m3 and = 7.5*10-3 N-s/m2
Let us first determine the average velocity required using
V = Vavg = Q/ A = 0.127/(d2/4)
= 0.127 / (*0.2252/4)
= 3.194 m/s
Now Reynolds number is,
Re = (*Vavg*d)/ = (855*3.194*0.225)/ 7.5*10-3 = 81926.1 which is greater than 4000.
Therefore, flow is turbulent
As the material is galvanized iron, Using table 8.2 (FM by Cengel & Boles, page 368)
Roughness, = 0.15,
and / d = 0.15/ 225 = 0.00067,
thus for the using moody charts, friction factor,
f = 0.0340
(3) Now pressure drop, P = PL = (fLV2)/ 2d = (0.0340*15600*855*3.1942)/ 2*0.225
= 10.28 *106 N/m2 = 10.28 MPa
Head loss, hL = PL / (g) = (10.28 *106) / (855*9.81) = 1.048 m
(4)Pumping power required,
W = Q* P = (0.127)*(10.28*106) = 1.306 MW
