It is proposed to pump 10,000kg/hr of toluene at 95C and 1 atm absolute pressure from th reboiler of a distillation tower, E1 to a second distillation tower, C2. Here is a description 0 : the piping run between E1 and C2 : - Segment A (E1 to P1): 3 meters of straight pipe (all pipe is Schedule 40), 90 elbow turning flow upwards, 1 meter of straight pipe, 90 elbow turning flow horizontal, 100% open gate valve. - Pump, P1: increases pressure from 1atm at E1 to 1.8atm at C2. - Segment B (P1 to control valve): 8 meters of straight pipe, 90 elbow making horizontal turn, 2 meters of straight pipe, 90 elbow turning flow upwards, 2 meters of straight pipe, 100% open gate valve, 2 meters of straight pipe, 90 elbow turning flow horizontal, 15 meters of straight pipe, 90 elbow turning flow downwards, 4 meters of straight pipe, straight-through run on a tee (other tee branch has a 100% closed globe valve attached to it), 90 elbow turning flow horizontal, reducer to decrease pipe size by one nominal inch pipe size, 0.5 meter straight pipe. - Control valve: globe valve. - Segment C (control valve to C2 ): 0.5 meter straight pipe, expander to increase pipe size by one nominal inch pipe size, 90 elbow turning flow upwards, straight-through run on a tee (other tee branch has a 100% closed globe valve attached to it), 3.5 meters of straight pipe, 90 elbow turning flow horizontal, 3 meters of straight pipe. a) Using Aspen and a velocity of around 8ft/sec in the piping (except around the control valve where the velocity is increased), determine the standard nominal pipe diameter for segments A-C (all the same). b) Using Aspen, determine the theoretical horsepower required by the pump. c) If the combination of pump and motor are 65% efficient, what size (in terms of power) must the pump's motor be
