A water pump is required to deliver 10 m2/min of water at a temperature of 27°C and the pressure is to raised from 100 kN/m2 to 300 kN/m2. Suction and delivery pipes are at 3 m and 9 m from datum with their respective diameter of pipes as 25 cm and 17 cm. Neglecting the effect of temperature on liquids, calculate the power required to drive the pump. Assume specific volume of water as 0.001 m/kg and neglect the effect of pressure on volume.

Question
A water pump is required to deliver 10 m2/min of
water at a temperature of 27°C and the pressure is
to raised from 100 kN/m2 to 300 kN/m2. Suction
and delivery pipes are at 3 m and 9 m from datum
with their respective diameter of pipes as 25 cm
and 17 cm. Neglecting the effect of temperature
on liquids, calculate the power required to drive
the pump. Assume specific volume of water as
0.001 m2/kg and neglect the effect of pressure on
volume.
