. Water flows at 6 gal/min through a small circular hole in the bottom of a large tank.
Assuming the water in the tank approaches the hole radially, find the velocity in the tank
at 2, 4 and 8 in from the hole.
What is the horsepower requirement for a water pump, if the required flow rate is 200 gpm and the required pressure increase assigned to the pump is 32 psi?
A centrifugal pump delivers 2.5 cfs of water against a head of 25 ft at 1500 rpm and requires 10 hp. If the speed is reduced to 1250 rpm calculate the flow (in m^3/s), assuming the same efficiency.
