A pump is to be used to draw seawater from the bay @ an elevation of 0 to a reservoir at a desalination plant that has a water surface elevation of 255 feet. A 12-inch diameter DIP pipe (CHW = 120) which is 625 feet long connects the two bodies of water. For this situation provide the equation of the system curve (IE. Ep in terms of Q) so that it can be overlaid onto various pump curves to select the best pump. There is an intake, which is a protruding pipe in the bay (ke = .85); a check valve (kv = 1.7); three 45° bends (kb = .3); two 90° bends (kb = .7); and an open gate valve (kg = .25)
