Oil (SG=0.82) entering a pump through an 8-inch diameter pipe at 4 psi has a flow rate of 3.5 cfs. It leaves the pump through a 4-inch diameter pipe at 15 psi. Assuming that the suction and discharge sides of the pump are at the same elevation, find the horsepower delivered to the water by the pump (550 lb.ft/s = 1 HP).

Applied Fluid Mechanics

A fluid is a substance that is continuously deformed by the application of shear stress. The rate of deformation of a fluid depends on its viscosity. The fluid tries to flow when it interacts with some other system.
