7 The diagram shown below represents a process for which a pump and associated pipework require to be correctly sized.
The liquid is to be pumped from the underground storage vessel which is vented to atmosphere (assume 1 bar pressure) to a pressurized container supported some distance above ground level. The pump is sited at ground level and must be capable of delivering 0.01m3s-1 with a maximum velocity of 1.8ms-1
Data:
Liquid density, =960kgm3
Liquid viscosity, =0.081Pas
(a) Calculate the theoretical diameter of the pipe; the nominal pipe diameter chosen from the table and the actual average velocity in the nominal pipe.
