The figure below represents a schematic of pipe network. A rate of 35 Ls, is pumped to feed two lines (3-4-5-6; and 2-7-8). The length and diameter of each pipe segment are listed in the table. Assume the friction factor of the two lines are equal (f456f278), determine: (1) the total pressure loss through the pipe network, (ii) the power of the pump required to overcome the friction loss along the system. The viscosity and density of the water are respectively: 0.0015 Pa.s; 985 kg/m³. Use the following expression to evaluate the friction factor with roughness ratio (@D-0.025): √ [6+(3/9)¹] Re -1.8 log Pump 1 2 7 Pipe section 1-2 3-4-5-6 2-7-8 6 Length (m) Diameter (cm) 30 17 25 40 34 30 The figure below represents a schematic of pipe network.
