The characteristics of a centrifugal pump operating at 1000 rpm is given by H=41-20002. The system characteristics may be represented by H=24+3200². The units for volume flow rate Q and head H are m³/s and m, respectively. When two pumps operating at 1000 rpm and connected in parallel are used, with the system characteristics remaining unchanged, the operating volume flow rate through the system is m³/s.

Q24
Two pumps (Pump A and B) have performance curves which can be approximated by the following equations: H_A = 340 - (1.2(Q^2)), in feet H_B = 360 - (2.5(Q^2)), in feet where Q is in ft^3/s. If pumps A and B were to operate in parallel as depicted in the figure below, at what head (in ft.) should either pump be operated?
1. A Pelton wheel performance data are collected in the following table. Turbine speed (RPM) 3000 Shaft torque Water supply line pressure (bar) Water flow rate (L/min) (Ncm) 2.4 18.4 If water supply pipe diameter is 25 mm and turbine wheel diameter is 70 mm, calculate the hydraulic head in m, jet velocity in m/s, speed ratio, hydraulic power in W, mechanical power in W and efficiency of the turbine. What is the optimum speed (RPM) of the wheel (for maximum power)?

For Questions 3 to 5 A certain centrifugal pump was tested and its performance curves can be approximated as follows: H = 340 - 1.2(Q^2), in feet BP = (0.0521Q^3) + (1.250^2)+(11.042Q) + 134.5, in horsepower where Q is in ft^3/s. Question 3 If a single pump is used to deliver water of a system which requires a total of 8 ft^3/s, what is the efficiency of the pump (in %)? Take the specific weight of water to be 62.4 lbf/ft^3. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
