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)?
