Transcribed Image Text:A piping system is to be installed at place where the pump will transfer the fluid from tank A to
tank B. There are two suggested piping designs available to carry the fluid efficiently. Compute
and determine which of the available piping arrangement will experience the less pumping power
with given flow conditions. Discuss the results.
Design 1:

20 m
Flow conditions are same for both type of designs and given as:
Page 3 of 4
Pipe material: stainless steel
Volume flow rate: 40 L/sec
Assume the working fluid is water at standard atmosphere temperature and both tanks are
open to atmosphere.
Pipe inlet is sharp-edged and bends are sharped without vanes.
· Elevations are as Z1=
20 m and Zz= 90 m
