Problem 1: The discharge pressure (P) of a centrifugal pump shown below is a function of flow rate (Q), impeller diameter (D), fluid density (p), and impeller angular speed (2). P = f (Q. D, p. 2). Use the Buckingham pi technique to rewrite this function in terms of dimensionless parameters, ₁ g (1₂).

**Problem 1:**

The discharge pressure (\(P\)) of a centrifugal pump shown below is a function of flow rate (\(Q\)), impeller diameter (\(D\)), fluid density (\(\rho\)), and impeller angular speed (\(\Omega\)). 

The relationship is represented as:
\[ P = f(Q, D, \rho, \Omega) \]

Use the Buckingham Pi technique to rewrite this function in terms of dimensionless parameters:
\[ \pi_1 = g(\pi_2) \]

The image includes a handwritten note: "Dimensions \(N = 5\)".

There are no graphs or diagrams accompanying this text.
