A pipe system at an aquarium circulates water through a big-fish tank. It is made of 3 cm diameter case iron piping and regular flanged elbows (KL=0.3 for each elbow). Assume the pump has KL = 0.3 and assume that the submerged inlet pipe has KL = 0.8. Determine the pump power needed to maintain a 0.1 m3/min flow rate.
