A centrifugal pump pumps water at a flow rate of 7 m³/s to a height of 10 m. If the pump works at the best efficiency point, find the pump impeller diameter, pump speed, the best efficiency value of the pump, the head at the best efficiency value, and the specific speed of the pump, given that CQ=0.15 CH=6 CP=0.75.
A centrifugal pump with 2.3 diameter impeller running at 327 rpm delivers 7.9 m3/s of water. The head developed is 72.8 m. The width of the impeller at outlet is 0.22 m. If the overall efficiency is 91.7% determine the power to drive the pump.
An existing pump is used to pump water with the following data at BEP: D = 2.15 in, N = 1784 rpm, ρ = 998 kg/m3, Q = 18 gpm, H = 4.2 ft. A larger pump is to be designed based from the existing one to be used for pumping slurry (ρ = 1220 kg/m3) such that its best efficiency point occurs as close as possible to a volume flow rate of 48 gpm and at a net head of 15 ft. Calculate the new pump diameter in inches. Round off your final answer to 3 decimal places.
