Question:

A pipeline is needed to transport medium fuel oil at 77°F. The pipeline needs to traverse 80 mi in total, and the initial proposal is to space pumping stations 2 mi apart. The line needs to carry 750 gal/min and would be made of 6-in Schedule 80 steel pipe. Calculate the pressure drop between stations and the power required to maintain the same pressure at the inlet of each pump. Comment on the design.
