Question

A pipeline of 300m length supplies liquid chlorine from a regulated 20 barg source to a process through a horizontal, new commercial steel pipe of inside diameter 2cm. The ambient

pressure is latm and everything is at a temperature of 30°C. If the pipe is broken off at the end of the 300m length, estimate the mass flow rate of chlorine in kg/s. Neglect entrance and exit effects as well as any minor losses. You can use the Moody plot or the Colebrook equation to find the friction factor. Assume fully turbulent flow but validate this assumption. The density of chlorine is 1380 kg/m. The viscosity of chlorine at 25°C is 0.328 x 10 -3 Pa.s
