The power P generated by a pump of a given geometry is known to depend upon the impeller diameter D, the rotational speed N, the volumetric flowrate Q, the fluid density p and the fluid viscosity μ. Using the Buckingham theorem, show that the power is given by the following expression: Q P PN³ DS == fn(VD³₁ ND³' ON D²)
