Thank you for your replies.
@Latexman,
Could you kindly post the equation that could be applied to this situation as I don't have access to this textbook.
@LittleInch,
It's a 4 inch pipe which discharges into a tank at that is kept at ambient pressure (discharge pressure into the tank is...
I've got a system where oil is pumped at 20 bar down a pipe of 600m length into a tank at ambient pressure.
I was asked to provide an estimated maximum velocity of the oil. Temperature and viscosity of the fluids as well as pipe's diameter are known. Do you know how could I calculate it?
For...
@EnergyMix
I wonder what importance does the water quality have. If we're talking about de-mineralised water (boiler feed water) in power generation application I would imagine that permissible velocity should be higher than for "raw' water.
I'm currently looking at a possibility of...
