Current Attempt in Progress A pump is used to circulate hot water in a home heating system. Water enters the well-insulated pump operating at steady state at a rate of 0.42 gal/min. The inlet pressure and temperature are 14.7 Ibf/in.?, and 180°F, respectively; at the exit the pressure is 90 lbf/in.? The pump requires 1/25 hp of power input. Water can be modeled as an incompressible substance with constant density of 60.58 Ib/ft° and constant specific heat of 1 Btu/lb · °R.
