Water is pumped up 20 feet from one large open tank to


Water is pumped up 20 feet from one large, open tank to another large, open tank as shown in the figure below. The pipe connecting the 2 tanks has a total length of 200 feet and a diameter of 6 inches. The sum of all the minor loss coefficients is ?KL = 4.0 and the friction factor can be assumed constant at 0.03. Using the pump curve information given below calculate the power (in hp) needed to drive the pump.
