//Note: There is huge deviation of the calculated answer and the answer given in the textbook for the correlation of Merrick & Highley. There is a contradiction in the correlation used in the problem and the one given in page 179.
//We tried to retrieve the original paper i.e. D.Merrick and J.Highley, AICHE J., 6, 220(1960). But the effort was not fruitful.
