Q2: 1- A centrifugal pump is to be operated with discharge 2.5 m3/min. If the power needed for the motor is 15 KW, compute the total head of the pump if the efficiency of the motor is 70% and the pump efficiency is 80%. Pali 2- For the above question, if you know the atmospheric pressure is 96 kpa, vapor pressure is 15.3 kpa and the required NPSH is 48 kpa, what will be position of the pump such to avoid cavitation. Neglect losses.
