A pipeline transporting crude oil (sg = 0.93 ) at 1200 L/min is made of DN 150 Schedule 80 steel pipe. Pumping stations are spaced 3.2 km apart. If the oil is at 10 ° C, calculate (a) the pressure drop between stations and (b) the power required to maintain the same pressure at the inlet of each pump.

A crude oil of specific gravity0.85 flows upward at a volumetric rate of flow of 70litres per
second through
a vertical
venturimeter,with an inlet diameter of 250 mm and a throat
diameter of 150mm. The coefficient
of discharge of venturimeter is 0.96. The vertical
differences betwecen the pressure toppings is
350mm.
i)
Draw a well labeled diagram to represent the above in formation
i)
If the two pressure gauges are connected at the tapings such that they are
positioned at the levels of their corresponding tapping points,
determine the
difference of readings in N/CM² of the two pressure gauges
ii)
If a mercury differential
manometer
is connected in place of pressure gauges,
to the tappings such that the connecting tube up to mercury are filled with oil
determine the difference in the level of mercury column.
Can you solve it analytically using laplace transforms and with Matlab code as well please. Thank You
