A manufacturer of small water pumps lists the performance data for a family of its pumps as a parabolic curve fit, Havailable = H0 − aV.2 , where H0 is the pump’s shutoff head and a is a coefficient. Both H0 and a are listed in a table for the pump family, along with the pump’s free delivery. The pump head is given in units of feet of water column, and capacity is given in units of gallons per minute. (a) What are the units of coefficient a? (b) Generate an expression for the pump’s ree delivery V.max in terms of H0 and a. (c) Suppose one of the manufacturer’s pumps is used to pump water from one large reservoir to another at a igher elevation. The free surfaces of both reservoirs are exposed to atmospheric pressure.
