Question
Question 1 (Pumps, pumping and water clarification) 1.1 List five different ways in which the pumping of fluids can be accomplished. 1.2 In a winze inclined at 30° to the horizontal, 36 kilolitres per hour must be pumped through a column of 300 m from the bottom to the top of the winze by means of a centrifugal pump. Assume the following: • Velocity is not to exceed 1,5 m/s • Coefficient of pipe friction = 0,01 • Pump and drive efficiency = 78% • Motor efficiency = 90% Determine: a) the size of column required b) the power of the electric motor to drive the pump
