Chapter 11, Problem 11.28PP
For the system shown in Fig. 11.27 and analyzed in Problem 11.27, it is desirable to change the system to increase the pressure at the inlet to the pump. The volume flow rate must stay at 475 L/min, but anything else can be changed. Redesign the system and recompute the pressure at the inlet to the pump for comparison with the result of Problem 11.27.

A "spa tub" is to be designed to replace bath tubs in reno-
vations. There are to be 6 outlet nozzles, each with a di-
ameter of 12 mm, and each should have an outlet velocity
of 12 m/s. What is the required flow rate from the single
pump that supplies all of these nozzles? If there is one
suction line leading to the pump, what is the minimum
diameter to limit the velocity at the inlet of the pump to
2.5 m/s?
Figure 8.18 shows a system used to spray polluted water into the air to increase the water's oxygen content and to cause volatile solvents in the water to vaporize. The pressure at point B just ahead of the nozzle must be 25.0 psig for proper nozzle performance. The pressure at point A (the pump inlet) is -3.50 psig. The volume flow rate is 0.50 ft/s. The dynamic viscosity of the fluid is 4.0 x 105 lbs/ft². The specific gravity of the fluid is 1.026. Compute the power delivered by the pump to the fluid, considering friction energy loss in the discharge line.
IF THE IMPELLER OF A CENTRIFUGAL PUMP IS KEPT THE SAME AND THE SPEED VARIED, THE PUMP OUTPUT SHALL CHANGE IN ACCORDANCE TO WHAT EQUATION?
