Question 3 Show that the pressure head rise in the impeller of a centrifugal pump when frictional and other losses in the impeler are neglected, is given by (a) where Vni is the velocity of flow at the inlet, while at the outlet of the backward curved blades, u2, m2, and ßz are the blade velocity, velocity of flow and blade angle, respectively. (4 marks) A centrifugal pump rotating at 1450 rpm discharges 0.015 m'ls of water. Its impeller has...
Chemical Engineering Fluid Mechanics 30. The purpose of a centrifugal pump is to increase the pressure of a liquid in order to move it through a piping system. The pump is driven by a motor, which must provide sufficient power to operate the pump at the desired conditions. You wish to find the pressure developed by a pump operating at a flow rate of 300 gpm with an oil having a specific gravity (SG) of 0.8 and a viscosity of...
A pump generates high pressure water as indicated in fig 3. The Inlet pressure and outlet pressure are 110 and 300 kPa respectively. The mass flow rate is 3 kg/sec. The inlet pipe is 1 inch diameter and outlet pipe is 0.5 inch. Neglect elevation difference and internal energy changes across inlet and outlet. a) Culculate velocity İf water at inlet and outlet(5) b) Choose a suitable control volume, and write down and expression for conservation of energy applicable to...
