Please answer question 7: A centrifugal pump discharges 500 GPM through a 12-inch diameter impeller. The fluid leaves the impeller with a tangential velocity of 17 ft/sec. If water, @ 68°F, enters the impeller via radial flow (I.E. no whirl), and the inner radius and thickness of the impeller are 1.75-inches. (Assume a constant thickness of the impeller) and if the pump speed is 1775 rpm, with a head loss of 4.5-feet. What is the horsepower input to the flow by the pump? QUESTION...
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...
You own a centrifugal pump that is 7 inches in diameter and is known to have a maximum efficiency of 84% at a flow rate of 300 GPM and a head of 75 ft., and it runs at 1200 RPM. You have an old case from another pump that is geometrically similar to the existing pump, and it is made to handle an impeller with a diameter of 8 to 12 inches. You decide to make a 10 inch diameter...
6.) A selected pump operates at 1750 rpm and delivers 4135 gpm at 248 feet of head with a 16-inch impeller. The design of the system requires that the pump deliver only 3700 gpm. What is the new impeller diameter to meet the design flow rate?

Impeller diameter: 0.1 m Impeller rotational speed: 1000 rpm The differential pressure across the suction and delivery heads: 100 m Speed of fluid flow: 2.5 m/s Impeller blades are curved back at an angle of 30° Frictional losses in the pump amounts to 2 m
A centrifugal pump is equipped with an impeller that is mounted on an overhung shaft of diameter 30 mm as shown in the figure. The pump is to be driven at 3600 rpm and delivers 100 L/s. The main dimensions of the impeller are as follows: Impeller outer radius (R2) = 120 mm Radius at the wearing ring (R1) = 68 mm Hub radius (nn) = 28 mm =65 mm Shaft radius = 15 mm Rsuc.
