Two centrifugal pumps are connected in series in a given pumping system. Plot total head Δh against capacity Q pump and system curves and determine the operating points for (a) only pump 1 running (b) only pump 2 running (c) both pumps running on the basis of the following data: operating data for pump 1 Δh1 m, 50.0 49.5 48.5 48.0 46.5 44.0 42.0 39.5 36.0 32.5 28.5 Q m3 /h, 0 25 50 75 100 125 150 175 200 225 250 operating data for pump 2 Δh2 m, 40.0 39.5 39.0 38.0 37.0 36.0 34.0 32.0 30.5 28.0 25.5 Q m3 /h, 0 25 50 75 100 125 150 175 200 225 250 data for system Δhs m, 35.0 37.0 40.0 43.5 46.5 50.5 54.5 59.5 66.0 72.5 80.0 Q m3 /h, 0 25 50 75 100 125 150 175 200 225 250
