A centrifugal pump having a 6-in.-diameter impeller and the characteristics shown in Fig. 11.9 is to be used to pump gasoline through 4000 ft of commercial steel 3-in.-diameter pipe. The pipe connects two reservoirs having open surfaces at the same elevation. Determine the flowrate. Do you think this pump is a good choice? Explain.
