A centrifugal pump is used to pump water between two reservoirs as shown in the bellow figure. The dimensions and minor loss coefficients are provided in the figure. The pump rotates at 1600 rpm, the water inters the impeller normal to the blades and exits at an angle of 45° from radial. The inlet radius is 5.5-in, at which the blade width is 7.09-in. The outlet radius is 8.66-in, at which the blade width is 6.7-in. The volume flow rate is 23-cfm.

Two tanks A and B are connected by a pipe 30 m long. The first 21 m has a diameter of 75 mm and then is suddenly reduced to 50 mm for the next 9 m. The difference of levels between the tank water levels is 2.40 m. Pipe coefficient f=0.005 and the contraction coefficient at sudden change in area is 0.58. Find all the losses, in terms of velocity v2 at exit from the 50 mm2pipe and hence find rate of flow. Draw the Hydraulic gradient line.
