Gasoline at 100 °F is being drawn from a closed tank having a pressure of 10 lb. per sq. in. ga. in a plant located 3000 ft. above sea level. The level of the gasoline in the tank is 7 ft. above the pump centerline, as shown below. The suction line friction and turbulence head losses amount to 2 ft. The vapor pressure of the gasoline is 7 lb. per sq. in. abs. and the specific gravity is 0.72. What is the available suction head of the system? Tank 10 psig 7" Pump
