The internal and external diameter of the impeller of a centrifugal pump are 200 mm and 400 mm respectively. The pump is running at 1200 r.p.m. The vane angles of the impeller at inlet and outlet are 20° and 30° respectively. The water enters the impeller radially and velocity of flow is constant. Determine the work done by the impeller per unit weight of water.

- A centrifugal pump with an impeller diameter of 350mm and specific speed of 19.15 and requires 15 kW to discharge 2.4 m³ /min of water, and runs at 1800 rpm. Determine the discharge, head and power required when the pump runs at 2400 rpm. The same discharge could be obtained by altering the impeller diameter without changing the rotational speed for this case find the new diameter of the impeller the head and the power required.
A centrifugal pump outer diameter equal to two times the inner diameter and running at 1200 rpm works against a total head of 75 m the velocity of the flow through the impeller is constant and equal to 3 m/s. The vane are set back at an angle of 30° at outlet. If the outer diameter of the impeller is 600 mm and width at out let is 50 mm, determine; 1- Vane angle at inlet. 2- Work done per second by imepller.
