A pump delivers 10 L/min with a pressure rise of 80 bar. The shaft speed is 1420 rev/min and the volumetric displacement is 8 cm3/rev. The theoretical torque is 11.4 Nm. Calculate the volumetric efficiency of the pump. (ii) If the power supply to the motor that drives the pump is now reduced by 50%, what would happen to the volumetric efficiency of the pump? Support your answer with relevant calculations. You may propose your own scientific assumptions.
