In Prob. it would be difficult to solve for Ω because of itappears in all three of the dimensionless pump coefficients.Suppose that, in Prob. 5.61, Ω is unknown but D = 12 cmand Q = 25 m 3 /h. The fluid is gasoline at 20 ° C. Rescale thecoefficients, , to make a plot ofdimensionless power versus dimensionless rotation speed.Enter this plot to find the maximum rotation speed Ωforwhich the power will not exceed 300 W.
