Question: Pumping a hydrochloric acid solution (Fig. 7A.2), a dilute HC1 solution of constant density and viscosity ( p = 62.4lb m /ft 3 ,

Pumping a hydrochloric acid solution (Fig. 7A.2), a dilute HC1 solution of constant density and viscosity (p = 62.4lbm/ft3, µ = 1 cp) is to be pumped from tank I to tank 2 with no overall change in elevation. The pressures in the gas spaces of the two tanks are p1 = 1 arm and P2 = 4 arm. The pipe radius is 2 in. and the Reynolds number is 7.11 x 104. The average velocity in the pipe is to be 2.30 ft/s. What power must be delivered by the pump?

Tank 2 Tank 1 - 300 ft- P2 P1 Pump Inside radius 2
