A four-stage (parallel) pump delivers 15 m³ per minute of liquid. The total head obtained is 27m. Initially, the impeller measures 24cm in diameter running at 1950 rpm. It is desired to construct a pump at a certain number of stages in series that should run at 1450 rpm delivering 18m/min with 280m of head in total. What should be the new diameter of the impeller and number of stages?
