A pump draws water from reservoir A and lifts it to reservoir B as shown in figure 4. Elev. of water at reservoir A is 10m.The loss of head from A to 1 is 3 times the velocity head in the 150mm pipe and the loss of head from 2 to B is 20 times the velocity head in the 100mm pipe. Compute the horsepower output of the pump and the pressure heads at 1 and 2 when the discharge is 200gpm.

Applied Fluid Mechanics

A fluid is a substance that is continuously deformed by the application of shear stress. The rate of deformation of a fluid depends on its viscosity. The fluid tries to flow when it interacts with some other system.
