3. Paint is to be pumped at 1 m/s through a horizontal 1-cm-i.d. pipe that is 25 m long. Paint follows power-law fluid behavior with n=0.5, K = 2.5 kg/m 3/2, and p = 2000 kg/m3. a. Is the flow laminar or turbulent? b. White the MEB and identify which terms are negligible. Substitute in the correct equation for the frictional losses. c. Find the size of pump (i.e. the power required), at 40% efficiency, needed to pump the paint through the pipe.
