Question
A Centrifugal pump discharges water with a
volume flow rate of 110 liters per second.
The inlet diameter D1 of the impeller is 150
mm, the blade thickness at the inlet is h-60
mm. Assume that the flow angle at the inlet
of the impeller is 90 degree, calculate
absolute velocity C1.
• a. C1=3.93 m/s
b.
Cr1=10.3 m/s
c. Cr1=5.93 m/s
d.
None of them are correct
e.
It is not possible to calculate C1-
Because the tangential velocity of the
impeller is not given.
