Question 1 (Pumps, pumping and water clarification)
1.1 List five different ways in which the pumping of fluids can be accomplished.
1.2 In a winze inclined at 30° to the horizontal, 36 kilolitres per hour must be pumped
through a column of 300 m from the bottom to the top of the winze by means of
a centrifugal pump.
Assume the following:
• Velocity is not to exceed 1,5 m/s
• Coefficient of pipe friction = 0,01
• Pump and drive efficiency = 78%
• Motor efficiency = 90%
Determine:
a) the size of column required
b)
the power of the electric motor to drive the pump
If the frequency of the pump is halved, what will happen to the power consumed? P0 = initial power consumption
A. 1/8 P initial
B. 2 P initial
C. 1/4 P initial
D. 4 P initial
