The inner and outer diameters of the impeller of a centrifugal pump are 25 and 50 Cm respectively. The pump discharges 8 m of water per minute while operating at 550 rpm against a head of 12 m. The diameter of the discharge outlet is 15 cm. The outlet diameter of the backward curved impeller vane is 40°. The flow area from the impeller inner to outer radius is constant and is equal to 750 cm2. Draw the velocity triangles and calculate: i. Inlet angle of the vane ii, Hydraulic efficiencies based on static head, and on total head. iii, Minimum speed for starting the pump in rpm.

Que. 5.6 A centrifugal pump having an impeller of 35 cm outside diameter rotates at 1000 rpm. The vanes are radial at exit and are 7 cm wide. The velocity of radial flow through the impeller is 3 m / sec. The velocity in the suction and delivery pipes are 2.5 m/s and 1.5 m / s respectively. Neglecting frictional losses determine the height through which pump lifts the water and the horse 3 - power the pump

The performance data of a water pump follow the curve fit Havailable =Ho +aV, where the pump's shutoff head Ho="K", coefficient a="Y" m/(Lpm)?, the units of pump head H are meters, and the units of Vare liters per minute (Lpm). The pump is used to pump water from one large reservoir to another large reservoir at a higher elevation. The free surfaces of both reservoirs are exposed to atmospheric pressure. The system curve simplifies to Hrequired =(Z2-Z1)+bV², where elevation difference z2-z1="X" m, and coefficient b = "L" m(Lpm)?.

Consider a pond of circular shape, radius R and width B (the width measured in the direction normal to the plane of the sheet). A pipe emerges from the bottom of the pond connected to a pump. This equipment sucks water at a flow rate Q = Kh2, where K is a constant and h(t) the height of the liquid contained in the pond at any instant t. Assume that the pond is initially full (h(0) = R). Determine algebraically the time T it takes for the system to empty.
