Applied Fluid Mechanics

A fluid is a substance that is continuously deformed by the application of shear stress. The rate of deformation of a fluid depends on its viscosity. The fluid tries to flow when it interacts with some other system.

A hydraulic motor has a displacement of 100 cm3 and operates with a pressure of 105 bars and a speed of 1700 rpm. If the actual flow rate consumed by the motor is 0.0025 m3/s and the actual torque delivered by the motor is 350 Nm. Calculate the overall efficiency of the motor. If the power supply to the motor is now reduced by 25%, what would happen to the overall efficiency of the pump? Support your answer with relevant calculations. You may propose your own scientific assumptions.
