The following data were recorded when a centrifugal pump worked at its maximum efficiency: Q = 40 /ps ; Manometric head developed = 25 m; Input shaft horse power = 11.9 W. What is the non- dimensional specific speed of the pump it it was running at 1500 rpm? (May adopt the following (all in S.I. units): g=1-77, g¹/² = 3-132, g/=5.544, √√2=1.414,5 = 2.236 and 10 = 3.162)

Question
The following data were recorded when a centrifugal pump worked at its maximum efficiency: Q =
40 /ps ; Manometric head developed = 25 m; Input shaft horse power = 11.9 W. What is the non-
dimensional specific speed of the pump it it was running at 1500 rpm? (May adopt the following (all
in S.I. units):
g¹/4 = 1.77, g/2² = 3-132, g/=5.544,
√√21.414,5 = 2.236 and 10 = 3.162)
