Design an appropriate piping system

Transport Phenomena Project

Metal Mint, Inc. (located in Southern Mexico, DB 70 F) has contracted the services of EBA Engineering Consultants, Ltd. to design a cooling system for their high-quality stainless steel bullion bars. The hot stainless steel bars will be transported slowly on a conveyor belt to allow for cooling. A design engineer at EBA Engineering Consultants, Ltd. has suggested the use of water in an evaporative cooling system. They wish to transport water from an existing 1200-gallon tank, which has a height of 50 in, to a large nozzle located 10 ft above grade (the ground). Once transported to the nozzle (K = 14), the water will be atomized to small droplets to produce shower-like streams of water to enhance evaporative cooling. Given that water is scarce in this area, the subsequent design of the conveyor cooling system will be determined by the piping system design. A sketch was submitted by the design engineer for consideration:

a) Based on the sketch provided by the design engineer, design an appropriate piping system, complete with all necessary equipment, to transport the water to the atomization nozzle. Metal Mint, Inc. (the client) has an open business agreement with Bell & Gossett-ITT Industries. Equipment schedules, specifications, and installation guidelines are not required by the client.

b) For the convenience of the client, it is recommended that a low-level switch be installed in the tank. Based on the piping system design and equipment selected, conduct an analysis to determine and/or justify the minimum height of water in the tank (i.e., minimum height of the low-level switch in the tank).
