The Keystone Pipeline has an inside diameter of 36 inches andcarries a flow rate of 590,000 barrels of crude oil per day at 40°C
.If the pipe is new, non-corroded steel, estimate the pumphorsepower required per mile of pipe.Use rho=1.67 slug/ft3 andμ=1.11x10-4 slug/ft*sec for the oil. This pipeline is in a coldenvironment, does it make sense that the oil is so warm?
1 answer:
Answer:
The pump horse power required per mile of pipe
Explanation:
The explanation is shown on the second third and fourth image
It make sense that the temperature of the oil is high even though the pipeline is in a cold environment this is so because where the oil is been tapped from is way hotter than the temperature of the pipeline environment because it is closer to the earths crust than the environment of the pipeline

Answer:
See explaination
Explanation:
2. 0-1 km shear value: taking winds at 1000mb and 850 mb
15 kts south easterly and 50 kts southerly
Vector difference 135/15 and 180/50 will be 170/61 or southerly 61 kts
3. 0-6 km shear value: taking winds at 1000 mb and 500 mb
15 kts south easterly and 40 kts westerly
Vector difference 135/15 and 270/40 will be 281/51 kts
