Problem 5. Data at the best efficiency point (BEP) for two pumps is below. By comparing CQ, CH and Cp, would these pumps be dynamically similar? Rotational Speed Impeller Diameter Flow Pump Head BHP D= 15 in Q = 7220 gpm w=1180 rpm hp = 24.9 ft 52.8 = D 13.5 in Q = 4280 gpm w=980 rpm hp = 13.7 ft 17.2
