Transcribed Image Text:

Oil of specific gravity 0.9 and kinematic viscosity 0.00033 m s is pumped over a distance of 1.5 km through a 75 mm diameter tube at a rate of 25 x 10 kg h. Determine whether the flow is laminar and calculate the pumping power required, assuming 70 per cent mechanical efficiency.
