Question
A radial-flow pump has the following dimensions:
B₁
r₁ = 21 mm
12 = 66 mm
B₂
= 44°
= 30°
b₁ = 11 mm
b₂ = 5 mm
For a rotational speed of 2500 rev/min, assuming ideal conditions (frictionless flow,
negligible vane thickness, perfect guidance), with α₁ = 90° (no prerotation), determine
(a) the discharge, theoretical head, required power, and pressure rise across the
impeller, and (b) the theoretical head-discharge curve. Use water as the fluid.
