Pump Pam = 100 kPa D= 3 cm The pump in Fig. P3.146 draws gasoline at 20°C from a reservoir. Pumps are in big trouble if the liquid vaporizes (cavitates) before it enters the pump. (a) Neglecting losses and assuming a flow rate of 65 gal/min, find the limita- tions on (x, y, z) for avoiding cavitation. (b) If pipe fric- tion losses are included, what additional limitations might be important? Gasoline, SG = 0.68 P3.146
