The shaft power from a 90 percent-efficient turbine is 500 kW. If the mass flow rate through the turbine is 440 kg/s, the extracted head removed from the fluid by the turbine is (a) 44.0 m (b) 49.5 (c) 142 m (d ) 129 m (e) 98.5 m
A pump increases the pressure of water from 100 kPa to 1.2 MPa at a rate of 0.5 m3 /min. The inlet and outlet diameters are identical and there is no change in elevation across the pump. If the efficiency of the pump is 77 percent, the power supplied to the pump is (a) 11.9 kW (b) 12.6 kW (c) 13.3 kW (d ) 14.1 kW (e) 15.5 kW
Water with a specific volume of 0.001 m3×kg-1 flows through a centrifugal pump that operates under steady flow conditions at a volumetric flow rate of 3.0 m3×min-1 from an initial pressure of 75 kPa to a final pressure of 220 kPa. The diameter of the suction inlet to the pump is 12 cm and the diameter of the discharge outlet is 8 cm. If the suction and discharge outlets are at the same level and no change in internal energy, determine the work (HP) done on the water by the pump.
