Problem (14): A pump is being used to lift water from an underground
tank through a pipe of diameter (d) at discharge (Q). The total head
loss until the pump entrance can be calculated as (h₁ = K[V²/2g]), h
where (V) is the flow velocity in the pipe. The elevation difference
between the pump and tank surface is (h).
Given the values of h [cm], d [cm], and K [-], calculate the maximum
discharge Q [Lit/s] beyond which cavitation would take place at the
pump entrance. Assume Turbulent flow conditions.
