Extracted text: Section B-Fluid mechanics Petrol is drained from a tank X to tank Y via pipeline A-B (see figure 03). A pump is then used 3. to pump the petrol from tank Y to tank Z via pipeline C-D. Pipe lengths, diameters and relative heights of the pump and tank levels are as shown in figure Q3. The density of the petrol is 760 kg/m and the Fanning friction factor (f) for all the pipes is 0.0075. For pipe A-B the entrance loss at A is 0.51and the exit loss at B is For pipe C-D the entrance loss at Cis 0.5_and the exit loss at D is 2g 24 All valve losses are 0.2 each, Neglect any entrance or exit head losses at the pump and all other pipeline component losses. The velocity in the pipe C-D cannot exceed 1.8 m/s The pump mechanical efficiency is 86% X.
