A submersible, multi-stage centrifugal deep well pump 260 gpm capacity is installed in a well 27 feet below the static water level. Drawndown when pumping at rated capacity is 10 feet. The pump delivers the water into a 25,000 gallons capacity overhead storage tank. Total discharge head developed by pump, including friction in piping is 243 feet. Calculate the diameter of the impeller of this pump in inches if each impeller diameter developed at a head of 38 ft. .
