Question
A centrifugal pump having outer diameter equal
to two times the inner diameter and running at
1000 rpm. Works against a total head of 40 m.
The velocity of flow through the impeller is
constant and equal to 2.5 m/s. The vanes are set
back at an angle 40° at outlet. If the outer
diameter of the impeller is 500 mm and width at
outlet is 50 mm, the discharge is.
(a) 1.963 m³/sec
(b) 0.1963m ^3
(c) 0.1963 m³/sec
(d) 0.1963 cm³/sec
