Soybean oil at 30 degress Celsius is to be pumped from an openvat through 60 m of standard galvanized iron pipe (internaldiameter of 9 cm) into the top of a stroage tank that is 17 m abovethe surface of the vat. The pipeline contains 3 type B elbows and agate valve. It is desired to pump the oil at 13.7 m^3/hr.
1) How much work head must be added by a pump at this pumpingrate?
2) Assuming 75% efficiency, what size motor (watt) would thepump require?
3) What percentage of the total frictional head loss is due topipe friction alone (major losses)?
