Using affinity laws, develop a pump curve and BHP curve for a 1 ½" AB pump for a 6" impeller. Use a 1750 rpm curve as the "known" characteristics and develop a theoretical curve using affinity laws for 3500 rpm based upon flow rates 0, 20, 40, 60, 80 and 90 gpm at 1750 rpm. Plot the theoretical (affinity-based) and published flow vs. head and flow vs. horsepower curves for 3500 rpm.

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.
