Question: How to solve 6 . 1 8 In a fluid pumping system, fluid with relative density 0 . 7 8 and saturation vapour pressure 1

How to solve
6.18 In a fluid pumping system, fluid with relative density 0.78 and saturation vapour pressure 12.5 kPa (abs.) is pumped from one tank to another. The following data apply:
\table[[,Suction side,Discharge side],[Tank pressure (kPa (g)),0(atm),30],[Static lift (m),2.5,7.8],[K(including entrance or exit),8.5,28.2],[Pipe diameter (mm),150,150],[Pipe length (m),4.5,34],[Friction factor (assumed constant),0.018,0.018]]
The system head equation is of the form:
H=A+CV?2(Hinm and VinLs)
(a) Determine the value of the factor C for the suction side only.
(b) Determine the value of the factor C for the discharge side only.
(c) Write the system head equation for the whole system.
(d) Complete the following table:
\table[[Flow rate (L/s),0,10,20,30,40,50],[System head (m),,,,,,]]
