Problem 4-10 Part B and C

Problem Statement:
The oil-cooler system of a ship's turbine consists of a reservoir in which light oil is maintained
at 300F, a 200ft segment of 3in. schedule 40 commercial steel pipe in which oil at 300F is
transported, a heat exchanger with a head loss of 257.12Q^1.73 (Q in ft^3/sec and head
loss in ft-lb/lbm), a 200ft segment of 3in schedule 40 commercial steel pipe in which oil at
100F is transported to a second reservoir 20ft above the first, and a pump placed in the line
containing the cold fluid.

(a) For a flow rate of 0.4104 cfs, what Goulds 3196 pump operating at 3,500 rmp would be
required?
(b) What would be the operating point of the pump-system combination if a Goulds 2x3-10
A60 pump (Fig. 4-16) operating at 1,750 rmp with a 10in rotor were installed?
(c) For part (b), find the efficiency and power required to drive the pump.

Here the head loss through the heat exchanger is given in
units of (ft*lbf/lbm), and is a function of flow rate to the 1.73
power. Therefore, in order to have units of ft*lbf/lbm, the
coefficient 257.13 must have units sec^1.73/ft^4.19

Because density changes from the 300F fluid and the 100F fluid, we cannot cancel out density on each
side.
Here we define the Reynold's and friction factors as a function of Q on either the hot side (1) (300F) or
the cold side (100F) (2).

In order to obtain the equation for a line of the pump head for a Goulds 2 x 3-10 A60 pump at
1750 RPM with a 10-in. rotor, we must use cubic interpolation of data points taken directly off of
the figure of the pump characteristics [Fig 4-16 (b)] and plot that curve against our system head
loss equation.

Using the TRACE option on the graph, we find the point of intersection of the two lines (the
operating point) to be at 0.356 ft^3/sec.

Also, the point of intersection can be found by setting the two functions equal to each other and using
a Given/Find solve block to solve for Q.

c) For part b), find the efficiency and power required to drive the pump.
Again using Fig 4-16 (b), we can find the efficiency by finding the intersection of our pump head
curve (hp(Q)) and our flow rate (Q=159.935gpm).
