Flow in Pipes and Frictional Losses
Water at 158°C (r = 999.1 kg/m3 and u = 1.138
x 10-3 kg/ms) is flowing steadily in a 30-m-long
and 5-cm-diameter horizontal pipe made of
stainless steel at a rate of 9 L/s. Determine (a)
the pressure drop, (b) the head loss, and (c) the
pumping power requirement to overcome this
pressure drop.
