A centrifugal pump with impeller diameter 500mm is designed for a discharge of 1.0m3/s of water. The water enters the pump axially, leaving the impeller with an absolute velocity of 12m/s at an angle of 20degrees to the tangent at the impeller periphery. The impeller is rotating at 700rpm. Determine the exit vane angle and the hydraulic power delivered.
Assume that friction in the suction line is negligible. Toluene @ 35C is pumped from an open reservoir to a tank kept at a gauge pressure of 150 kPa. The pump itself is 3 m below the reservoir, while the discharge tank is 10m above the reservoir. While in the discharge line the friction head amounts to 7.5 m, determine the net positive suction head available for the pump. If the pump has an efficiency of 65%, determine the total power input.
