Expert Solution
Step 1

● Introduction to NPSH:

NPSH (Net Positive Suction Head) is the minimum head required at the suction of the pump in order to avoid the cavitation in the pump.

The cavitation is the phenomenon in the which the vaporization of the fluid and starts entering in the pump and thus affects it's performance.
