Question
A pump draws 20 L/s of water from reservoir A to reservoir B. Assuming f = 0.013 for all pipes, compute the
horsepower delivered by the pump. Pump elevation is at datum.Data as follows:
Reservoir A to pump.
L= 500 m, D = 200 mm, EL. = 15 m
Pump to Reservoir B
L= 1200 m, D = 150 mm, EL. = 60 m

A pump with a 400 mm diameter suction pipe and a 350 mm diameter
is to deliver 20,000 L/min of 15.6deg C water. Calculate the pump
head in meters if suction gage is 7.5 cm below pump centerline
and reads 127 mmHg vacuum and discharge gage is 45 cm above the
pump centerline and reads 75 kPa
Note, z is also the distance of pressure gage to the pump. Mind the units.
