Create a program or a spreadsheet for determining the velocity of flow and the volume flow rate in a given pipe with a limited pressure drop, considering energy loss due to friction only. Use the computational approach described in Section 11.4 and illustrated in Example Problem 11.2.
Problem 11.2
For the system shown in Fig. 11.14, kerosene (sg = 0.82) at 20°C is to be forced from tank A to reservoir B by increasing the pressure in the sealed tank A above the kerosene. The total length of DN 50 Schedule 40 steel pipe is 38 m. The elbow is standard. Calculate the required pressure in tank A to cause a flow rate of 43S L/min.
