Question
The following figure shows how nitrogen gas under a pressure Pn = 15.0 psig can be
used for “pumping” kerosene at 75 °F (ρ = 51.0 lb m/ft 3 , μ = 4.38 lbm/ftꞏhr) through an
elevation increase of 20 ft. If there is an effective length (including fittings) of 150 ft of
nominal 2-in. Schedule 40 commercial steel pipe between the two tanks, what is the
volumetric flow rate of kerosene in gpm? You can assume it is a turbulent flow and neglect
exit kinetic energy effects. [~ 88 gpm]
