PUMP SYSTEM

Pipelines from Lube Oil Storage Tank to Engine Design Data:

Specific Gravity of Lube Oil 0.94
Volume Flow Rate of Lube Oil (0.06064m3/hr)
Velocity at Pump Suction Line 0.2512 m/sec
Velocity at Pump Discharge Line 0.2512 m/sec
Size at Suction Line 15 mm DN
(ID=15.798mm,
Schedule 40)
Size at Discharge Line 15 mm DN
(ID=15.798 mm,
Schedule 40)
Length of Suction Pipeline 1.45 m
Length of Discharge Pipeline 78.26 m

Number of 90° elbow at Suction Line 1

Number of 90° elbow at Discharge Line 4

Number of Gate Valve at Suction Line 1
Number of Gate Valve at Discharge Line 1
Number of Tees at Suction Line 1 (branch)
Number of Tees at Discharge Line 1 (branch) (3 run)
Static Suction Head -0.414 m
Static Discharge Head 0.1 m

Total Length of Suction Pipeline

@15 mm DN Equivalent Length
Standard 90° Elbow 0.5 m
Gate Valve 0.2 m
Tee (branch) 0.9 m
Tee (run) 0.3 m

Thus,
LS = length of suction pipeline + equivalent length
 Ls = 1.45 m+[(1)(0.5m)+(1)(0.2 m)+(1)(0.9 m)+(3)(0.3m)
Ls = 3.95 m

Total Length of Discharge Pipeline

@15 mm DN Equivalent Length
Standard 90° Elbow 0.5 m
Gate Valve 0.2 m
Tee (branch) 0.9 m
Tee (run) 0.3 m

Thus,
Ld = length of discharge pipeline + equivalent length
Ld = 78.26 m+[(4)(0.5m)+(1)(0.2 m)+(1)(0.9 m)+3(0.3m)
Ld = 82.26 m
Solving for Total Length of Pipes
Ltsd = Ls+ Ld
Ltsd = 3.95 m + 82.26 m
Ltsd = 86.21 m
