Question:

You have been hired to consult on a pilot plant project that requires the installation of a rough horizontal pipe made from commercial steel into a flow system. The pipe has a diameter of 4 in. and a length of 30 ft. A Newtonian fluid (heat capacity = 0.149 BTU/Ibm°F, density = 0.161 Ibm/ft3, viscosity = 8.88 × 10-4 Ibm/ft - sec and kinematic viscosity = 5.52 × 10-3 ft2/sec) will flow through the pipe at 300 ft3/ min. Assume that the flow is without edge effects, and that the no-slip boundary condition applies. Determine the pressure drop of the fluid as it travels through the pipe.
