Figure 11.33 shows a part of a chemical processing system in which propyl alcohol at 25°C is taken from the bottom of a large tank and transferred by gravity to another part of the system. The length between the two tanks is 7.0 m. A filter is installed in the line and is known to have a resistance coefficient K of 8.5 based on the pipe velocity head. Drawn stainless steel tubing is to be used. Specify the standard size of tubing from Appendix G.2 that would allow a volume flow rate of 150 L/min.
