For Questions 3 to 5 A certain centrifugal pump was tested and its performance curves can be approximated as follows: H = 340 - 1.2(Q^2), in feet BP = (0.0521Q^3) + (1.250^2)+(11.042Q) + 134.5, in horsepower where Q is in ft^3/s. Question 3 If a single pump is used to deliver water of a system which requires a total of 8 ft^3/s, what is the efficiency of the pump (in %)? Take the specific weight of water to be 62.4 lbf/ft^3. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
Q.2. A catrifugal pump is operating at the rotation rate of 750 rpm. Water leaves the blade at 40° from the radial direction. Water enters to blade at 80° from tangential direction( off design condition). The inner and outher respectivelly. The width of the impeller is 14 cm. Flow rate of the pump is 0.60 m³/s. a) Draw the velocity triangles at inlet and outlet of the blade. Determine; b) the blade angles, Bi and B2. c)Net head and power of the pump, d) Specific speed of the pump, choose the type of the pump ( radial-mixing and axial flow types) radius of the impeller is 12 cm and 18 cm 1
Suppose the pump of Fig. is situated between two large water tanks with their free surfaces open to the atmosphere. Explain qualitatively what would happen to the pump performance curve if a valve in the piping system were changed from 100 percent open to 50 percent open, all else being equal. Repeat for the system curve. What would happen to the operating point—would the volume flow rate at the operating point decrease, increase, or remain the same? Indicate the change on a qualitative plot of H versus V. , and discuss.
