Question
A pump draws water through a 36 cm diameter suction pipe and
discharges it through a 22 cm diameter pipe in which the mean flow
velocity, uc is 4.3 m s-1.
C
Pump
Water
The 22 cm diameter pipe discharges horizontally into air at point C. To
what height, h above the water surface at A can water be raised if 53 kW is
delivered to the pump? Assume that the pump operates at 60% efficiency
and that the total head losses in the pipe between A and C, hr, are equal to
2u.2
where g is the acceleration due to gravity, g=9.81ms².
