Problem. Water at 20C is transported through a horizontal pipe with a flow of 60 L/s. The pipe is commercial steel, 1 km long and 200 mm in diameter. Along the way, the pipeline has two standard long radius 90 elbows, a wide open globe valve, a check valve and a gate valve installed. For this scenario, propose a possible diagram of the system and calculate the pumping power (in Watts) needed to compensate for the energy losses in the system.
