The pump pictured in problem 2 above delivers water from the lower reservoir to the upper reservoir at a rate of 250 gal/min. There are 20 ft of 3-in Schedule 40 steel pipe before the pump, and 45 ft after. There are three standard 90 elbows and a fully open gate valve. The depth of the fluid inside the lower reservoir is 5 ft. Use PIPE-FLO to calculate (a) the pressure at the pump inlet, (b) the pressure at the pump outlet, (c) the total head on the pump, and (d) the power delivered by the pump to the water. Assume water to be at 75 oF Save the PIPE-FLO file as Series_Parallel_LastName_FirstName_Prob_04
