A 20 degree Brix apple juice is being pumped from an open tank through a 1-in nominal diameter sanitary pipe into a second tank at a higher level. The mass flow rate is 1 kg/s through 30 m of straight pipe with two 90 degree standard elbows and one angle valve. The supply tank maintains a liquid level of 3 m and the apple juice leaves the system at an elevation of 12 m above the floor. Compute the power requirements of the pump.

Given: Juice density is 997.1 kg/m3 and viscosity is 2.1*10-3 Pa.s. Pump efficiency is 60%.

Water is being pumped through a horizontal pipe that is 36.0 m long and 13.5 cm in diameter. A pump maintains a gauge pressure of 742 Pa at a large open tank at one end of the pipe. The other end of the pipe is open to the air. If this pipe is replaced by a second one of length 9 m and diameter 5.0 cm, what gauge pressure must the pump provide to give the same volume flow rate...

Water at 200 Fahrenheit is pumped from a storage tank at the rate of 50 gallons/minute. The motor for the pump supplies work at the rate of 2 hp. The water goes through a heat exchanger, giving up heat at the rate of 40,000 BTU/minute(Q Net In), and is delivered to a second storage tank at an elevation 50 feet above the first tank. What is the temperature of the water delivered to the second tank?
