Question:

Water is being pumped from a supply reservoir to an elevated holding tank. The elevation gain is 14.9 m, and the length of the ductile iron supply pipe (f = 0.019) connecting the reservoirs is 22.4 m. The pipe is 5.0 cm in diameter, and the performance curve of the pump is given by Hp = 23.9 - 7.59Q2, where HP is in meters and Q is in Liters per second. (The equation is valid 8 or flows less than or equal to 1.5 liters per second.) Using this pump, what flow do you expect in he pipeline if minor losses are ignored? What pump head is required for this flow?
