Q3/ Liquid is pumped from a storage tank to a distillation column, using a centrifugal pump. The pipeline is 80 mm internal diameter commercial steel pipe, 100 m long. Miscellaneous losses are equivalent to 650 pipe diameters. The storage tank operates at atmospheric pressure and the column at 1.7 bar. The lowest liquid level in the tank will be 1.5 m above the pump inlet, and the feed point to the column is 3 m above the pump inlet. Determine the dynamic head if the velocity is 3.5 m/s. Properties of the fluid: Density 900 kg/m³, viscosity 1.36 mN/m2s.

Q3/ Liquid is pumped from a storage tank to a distillation column, using a
centrifugal pump. The pipeline is 80 mm internal diameter commercial steel pipe,
100 m long. Miscellaneous losses are equivalent to 650 pipe diameters. The
storage tank operates at atmospheric pressure and the column at 1.7 bar. The
lowest liquid level in the tank will be 1.5 m above the pump inlet, and the feed
point to the column is 3 m above the pump inlet. Determine the dynamic head if
the velocity is 3.5 m/s. Properties of the fluid: Density 900 kg/m3, viscosity 1.36
mN/m2s.
