A chemical engineer is TASKED with transporting brine at 39F from the desalination plant to the processing unit in a chemical plant. The processing unit elevation relative to the desalination plant is 150 ft. The pump and its motor have a combined efficiency of 60%. The relevant data for this operation are as follows: VFR brine: 400 gal/min Specific gravity of brine: 1.18 Pipe size: 4-in Sch 40 Total length of straight pipe: 600 ft No. of 90 elbows: 4 No. of gate valves (wide open): 2 No. of tees: 4 Determine (a) the horsepower required to drive the pump and (b) the pressure developed by the pump in psi.

Thank you for the help
