You are going to pump water from a farm pond to irrigate a field that is 65 feet higher than the surface of the pond. You have elected to use 4 inch schedule 40 pipe for this job and are going to pump 150 GPM in an effort to cover the 5 acre field in a timely manner. The length of the pipe from the pond to the Rain Bird is 1250 feet. There is one gate value that will normally be fully open and 12 standard 90o elbows in the system as well and 4 standard 45o elbows. Find the horsepower needed to power this system. Remember to calculate the entire HL. Is the flow in the pipe laminar or turbulent?
