A lube oil (0.85 g/cm') is pumped to a header at the rate of 4000 liters/hr. At the header the flow branches in 2 lines, one pipe has an inside diameter of 7 cm while the other 15 cm. Assuming that the flow is directly proportional to the cross-sectional area of the flow, calculate for both pipes: a. The flow velocity in m/s b. The mass velocity in kg/hr-m c. The volumetric flow rate in m'/hr Assumptions 1. Steady State 2. Incompressible
