Required information. It is desired to pump ethanol at 20°C through 280 m of straight smooth tubing under laminar-flow conditions, Red = pVd/μ < 2300. The available pressure drop is 10 kPa. For ethanol at 20°C, p = 789 kg/m³ and μ = 0.0012 kg/m-s. What is the maximum possible mass flow in kg/h? The maximum possible mass flow is 121.335 kg/h.
