Question
. A pump draws water from a reservoir and conveys it to another reservoir 30 m above.
The sucLon pipe is 100 mm in diameter and 10 m long while the delivery pipe is 100 mm in
diameter and 150 m long. if the velocity in the pipe is 3 m/s, the fricLon factor of the pipe
0.008, and the pump and motor efficiencies 85 % and 92 %, respecLvely. See Figure Q6.1.
Calculate:
(a) Gauge pressure at the pump's inlet (at C) (10)
(b) Gauge Pressure at the pump's outlet (at D) (10)
(c) input power to motor (5)
