2. A closed tank contains liquefied butane gas whose specific gravity is 0.60. The tank pressure is 1.6MPagage which is also the equilibrium vapor pressure of butane at the pumping temperature. Suction line losses is 1.5 m of gas and the static elevation gain is 4 m. What is the net positive suction head available (NPSH)?

A full scale agitation system that has a flat blade turbine impeller with six blade-disk is used in a mixing operation. The (Da/W) and (D/J) values are 5 and 12, respectively. The liquid level is equal to the tank diameter. The liquid in the agitator has a viscosity of 85 cp and a density of 65.5 lb/ft³. The Reynolds number for the agitator is 10,000 and the agitator requires a power of 1 kW. It is desired to scale down the system for a vessel whose production volume is 4 times smaller than the original full scale agitation system. Assume mass transfer similarity for the scale down process. Calculate the power requirement in kW for the scaled down tank. Problem 2. 4

Pump Horsepower in Brine System. A pump pumps 0.200 ft3/s of brine solution having a density of 1.15 g/cm3 from an open feed tank having a large cross-sectional area. The suction line has an inside diameter of 3.548 in. and the discharge line from the pump a diameter of 2.067 in. The discharge flow goes to an open overhead tank and the open end of this line is 75 ft above the liquid level in the feed tank. If the friction losses in the piping system are 18.0 ft· lbf/lbm, what pressure must the pump develop and what is the horsepower of the pump if the efficiency is 70%? The flow is turbulent.

A 14m diameter cyclindrical storage contains 900m³ of oil (SG=0.85, v=2x10-³ m²/s). A 30cm diameter pipe, 60m long is attached at the bottom of the tank and has its discharge end 7.0m below the tank's bottom. A valve is located near the pipe's discharge end. Assuming the minor loss in the valve to be 25% of the velocity head in the pipe, determine the discharge in liters/second if the valve is fully opened. Assume laminar flow.
