A centrifugal pump impeller has an external diameter of 1.2 m and internal diameter of 0.8 m. The width of the impeller at outlet is 0.175 m and the blade angle at outlet is 65 degrees. The flow velocities at inlet and outlet are the same (Va1 = Va2). This pump delivers 1.55 m3/s of water at 210 rpm. For theoretical performance, calculate: 1-The flow velocity . 2-blade speed at outlet. 3-blade angle at inlet (in degrees). 4-the developed head. 5-The pressure rise across the impeller. 6-The number of blades . 7-The NPSH . %3D

The three-lobe (on each rotar) rotary pump moves 0.145 gal of a coal slurry in each lobe volume Vlobe = 0.103 gal. Calculate the volume flow rate of the slurry (in gpm) for the case where n. = 220 rpm.

Using affinity laws, develop a pump curve and BHP curve for a 1 ½" AB pump for a 6" impeller. Use a 1750 rpm curve as the "known" characteristics and develop a theoretical curve using affinity laws for 3500 rpm based upon flow rates 0, 20, 40, 60, 80 and 90 gpm at 1750 rpm. Plot the theoretical (affinity-based) and published flow vs. head and flow vs. horsepower curves for 3500 rpm.
