A pump is being used to transport a liquid food product (density p=1000kg/m^3, viscosity 0.001 Pa s) from holding tank to filling a machine at a mass flow rate of 2 kg/s. The liquid level in the holding tank is 10 m above the pump, and the filling machine is 5 m above the pump. There is 100 m of 2-in nominal diamter sanitary pipe between the holding tank and the filling machine, wiht one open globe valve and four regular 90° flanged elbows in the system. Within the system, there is a heat exchange which causes 100 kPa of pressure drop due to friction. The holding tank is open to atmosphere, and filling machine is running at a pressure of 1.5 atm. The diamter of the filling machine pipe is 3cm.
A: What is the volume flow rate of the system?
B: What is the diamete of the pipe?
C: What is the average velocity inside the pipe?

Water flows between two reservoirs A & B. The water level in A is 400 m AOD and in B is 385m AOD. The reservoirs are connected by a 400mm diameter pipe, 1200m in length, which has a Darcy friction factor of 0.025. The lowest point in the pipeline is a distance of 400m from A and has a level of 360m AOD. Determine the rate of flow through the pipeline and the pressure at the lowest point.
