A pump operating at 1750 rpm delivering 500 gpm against a total head of 150 ft. Changes in the
piping system have increased the total head to 360 ft. At what rpm should the pump be operated
to achieve this new head at the same efficiency?
A centrifugal pump outer diameter equal to two times the inner diameter and running at 1200 rpm works against a total head of 75 m the velocity of the flow through the impeller is constant and equal to 3 m/s. The vane are set back at an angle of 30° at outlet. If the outer diameter of the impeller is 600 mm and width at out let is 50 mm, determine;
1- Vane angle at inlet.
2- Work done per second by imepller.
A pump draws water from
reservoir A and lifts it to
reservoir B. The loss of head
from A to 1 is 3 times the
velocity head in the 6 inch pipe
and loss of head from 2 to B is
20 times the velocity head in
the 4 inch pipe. Compute the
horsepower output of the
pump and the pressure heads
