Consider the following piping system of 1-nominal schedule 40 galvanized steel that conveys water with a volumetric flow rate of 15gpm. 1. basket strainer 2.1'-0" 3.0-9° 4.3-0 5.1'-1' 6.1'-6" 7.0-10° 8.1'-2" LR 9.3-1" 10.1'-5" 11.2-1" 12.45° ells 10 (12) 11 All fittings in the system are threaded. The loss coefficient for the basket strainer can be approximated with K-1.3. As the engineer on the job, you are tasked the conduct the following calculations and analyses: Determine the total pressure drop (in lbf/ft² and psi as well as in ft of head) in the piping system from beginning to end.
