3. (15 pts) For this problem, refer to the figure associated with problem 4.8. from Hydraulic Lessons. The figure is included below for your convenience. Your system has a curve equation: hp = 150+ 0.3 * Q185. You have two pumps and must decide which pump would be best for your system. The design flow rate for your system is 4300 gpm. This means that you will need to trim (reduce) the impeller diameter until the pump performance curve intersects with the system performance curve at 4300 gpm, thus setting the operating flow rate at 4300 gpm. To decide which pump works best, you need to answer each of the following questions and then decide which pump is the best. 1. For Pump 2824A: A. What is the operating point for this system and pump curve scenario? Provide the flowrate (gpm) and the pump head (ft) B. What is the pump efficiency (%) at the operating point? C. What is the NPSHr (ft) from the pump chart given the operating point? D. What is the best efficiency point (BEP) for this pump? Provide just the flowrate (gpm) corresponding to the point where the pump efficiency is at its maximum. 24 8" NPSHR 2824A 400 6 NPSHR 1785 RPM 360 IMPELLER 17 00 70 75 JBL 1A1 320 80 82 84 SUCTION SIZE 12" 280 EYE AREA 81 28 SQ IN 15 00 240 MAX SPHERE 14.Op 1.12* TOTAL HD IN FEET 200 160 120 80 400 14.00 200 0 500 1000 1500 2000 2500 3000 3500 4000 4500 5000 5500 US GPM 2.
