Pump A and pump B are connected in parallel in a system that includes 10 km of 600-mm pipe. The following data describe the head-discharge relationship for each pump:
Q, L/s | TDH, m | |
Pump A | Pump B | |
0 | 28 | 3 |
50 | 27 | 33 |
100 | 24 | 31 |
150 | 20 | 26 |
200 | 12 | 19 |
250 | — | 10 |
The total static head in the system is 16 m. For the pumps operating in parallel, what is the operating point? Assuming that the discharge line is throttled by a butterfly valve to a point that increases the system TDH to 30 m, describe the operating condition of the pumps.
