Tests by the Byron Jackson Co. of a 14.62-in-diameter centrifugal water pump at 2134 r/min yield the following data:
| G, ft’/s | 0 | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 | 10 |
| H, ft | 340 | 340 | 340 | 330 | 300 | 220 |
| bhp | 135 | 160 | 205 | 255 | 330 | 330 |
What is the BEP? What is the specific speed? Estimate the maximum discharge possible.
