A crude oil of viscosity 0.97 poise and relative density 0.9 is flowing through a horizontal circular pipe of diameter 100 mm and of length 10 m.

Calculate the difference of pressure at the two ends of the pipe, if 100 kg of the oil is collected in a tank in 30 seconds.

Data : $\mu = 0.97 poise = \frac{0.97}{10} = 0.097 Ns/m^2$

Relative density = 0.9 (of 0:1)

$\therefore Density \rho_o = 0.9 \times 1000 = 900 kg/m^3$ (of oil)

Dia. of pipe D = 100 mm = 0.1 m

Length L = 10 m

Mass of Oil = m = …
