Question
Transcribed Image Text:Impeller diameter at the entrance of the impellers is 32 mm in a homologuous series centrifugal pumps.
Impeller diameters are 210, 240 and 264 mm. Liquid leaves impeller by making an angle with tangent
as 30° (t/6 radian). The rotational speed of the impellers are 1450 rpm (revaluation/ min). a) Calculate
the required power of the pumps if the volumetric flow rate of water transported is 10 m³/h, b) How
power requirement of the pumps change if the volumetric flow rate of water transported is increased to
20 m/h.
