Question
P3: Following are the values of some parameters of a centrifugal pump installation,
Calculate the brake power and the torque applied to the pump shaft.
Static suction head = 4.0 m
Head loss in suction
pipe = 2.0 m
Discharge = 60 litre/s
Static delivery head = 15.0
Head loss in delivery pipe = 5.0 m
Relative density of läquid to be
pumped = 0.89
Overall efficiency = 0.82
Speed of rotation = 1200 rpm
Outer diameter of the
impeler = 30 cm
