Superheated water vapor is transported at 5.05 atm at a temperature of 250 oC, the output is saturated steam at 0.5 bar, the inlet flow rate is 7543 g/min, it is desired to move from a point 750 cm above the earth's surface to a container 230 cm below ground level, the process is carried out under adiabatic conditions and the inlet and outlet pipes have an internal diameter of 75 mm and 82 mm at the inlet and outlet respectively. Calculate the pump power (W) in BTU, include the process diagram.
