Q.17 34 °API gas oil at 80 °F is being pumped from a storage tank on the ground to another tank standing on a hill 390 ft high at a rate of 200 Ib/min through a pipe of 2 in diameter. A 2 hp pump with efficiency of 60% is used to pump the gas oil, and a heater adds 1450 Btu/min to the gas oil during its flowing. The average heat capacity (Cpm) of the gas oil = 0.5 Btu/Ib.°F.Calculate a) The temperature of the gas oil as it enters the elevated tank b)The flowing velocity of the gas oil in ft/sec.

Q.17 34 °API gas oil at 80 °F is being pumped from a storage tank on the ground to another tank
standing on a hill 390 ft high at a rate of 200 Ib/min through a pipe of 2 in diameter. A 2 hp
pump with efficiency of 60% is used to pump the gas oil, and a heater adds 1450 Btu/min
to the gas oil during its flowing. The average heat capacity (Cpm) of the gas oil = 0.5
Btu/Ib."F.Calculate a) The temperature of the gas oil as it enters the elevated tank
b)The flowing velocity of the gas oil in ft/sec.
Given that 'API=(141.5/spg) -131.5, spg p gasoil/P water
ge=32.17 lbm.ft/lbf.sec?
1 ft=12inch
pwater=62.4 lb/ft3
1 Btu =252 Cal
1 Btu = 778 ft.lbf
1 hp = 550 ft.lbf/sec
