Q1. The pump with 96.52 cm in diameter characteristics shown in figure below is used to pump water to the ystem. Neglecting local losses, ww. a) Calculate flow rate and pump power. b) A new. pump from the family with 60 cm in diameter is produced. It oparates with the speed of n=1500 rpm and used to pump gasoline (SG=0.86). Estimate discharge, head and power of the new pump. Note:Pipe is cast iron with 0.5 m in diamater and 900 m in length. Fluid is water with density 1000 kg/m³. Take f=0.02 in the analysis.

Suppose the pump of Fig. is situated between two large water tanks with their free surfaces open to the atmosphere. Explain qualitatively what would happen to the pump performance curve if a valve in the piping system were changed from 100 percent open to 50 percent open, all else being equal. Repeat for the system curve. What would happen to the operating point—would the volume flow rate at the operating point decrease, increase, or remain the same? Indicate the change on a qualitative plot of H versus V. , and discuss.
