Question: A pump, which has characteristics such in Table 1 is used to deliver water from 2 reservoirs having a static head of 5 m through
A pump, which has characteristics such in Table is used to deliver water from reservoirs having a static head of through a pipeline. The pipe is length with in diameter, having a constant friction factor of The total minor losses coefficient, is
Table : Pump performance and efficiency
tableFlow rate Head Efficiency
Determine:
i Flow rate, head, and efficiency at operating point
ii Power input required by the pump.
iii. Sketch Energy Grade Line EGL and Hydraulic Grade Line HGL between the two reservoirs when the pump is present.
iv The new flowrate required is what can be done to achieve that? Rule out the probability to change pump in your decision and give comment on your answer.
