 The relation between flow and head for a certain slurry pump

The relation between flow and head for a certain slurry pump is represented by data presented in Table 1. Using this pump to feed a particular slurry to a pressure leaf filter. Table 1: How much filtrate will be obtained after 60 minutes of filtration and what will be the pressure across the filter after this time? A small scale experiments were conducted where the same slurry was filtered at a constant rate of 0.0001m3/s through a leaf filter covered with a similar filter cloth but of one-twentieth the area of the full-scale unit, and the experimental data are in Table 2. Table 2: Assume the density of slurry is 1000kg/m3
