Question: A centrifugal pump has d1 = 7 in, d2 = 13 in. b1 = 4 in b2 = 3 in, B1= 25, and B2

A centrifugal pump has d1 = 7 in, d2 = 13 in. 

A centrifugal pump has d1 = 7 in, d2 = 13 in. b1 = 4 in b2 = 3 in, B1= 25, and B2 = 40 and rotates at 1160 r/min. If the fluid is gasoline at 20C and the flow enters the blades radially, estimate the theoretical (a) flow rate in gal/min, (b) horsepower, and (c) head in ft. %3D %3D
