The below graph contains a system curve and the performance curve for a single pump. Use this curve to: a) Sketch the resulting performance curve for two of these identical pumps in series b) Sketch the resulting performance curve for two of these identical pumps in parallel c) Explain which configuration would be better if the system curve shifted to start with a static head of 60 m.
