Question
Pleas explain in details.
The suction side of a pipe system is as shown in the figure. The pump discharges 495
gpm of water under a total head of 100 ft at 40°F. Atmospheric pressure = 32.7 ft of water.
If the required NPSH is 9 ft, will there be a cavitation problem? Please note that 1 cfs
equals 449 gpm.
Diameter = 10 in
L = 300 ft
Steel
12 ft
6 ft
