Answer to Question #150953 in Chemical Engineering for Zana

Question

Water at 20 ºC is to be pumped through the system.

The operating data for this motor-driven pump are as follows:

Capacity, m^3/s x 10^4 Developed head, m Efficiency, %
0 36.6 0
10 35.9 19.1
20 34.1 32.9
30 31.2 41.6
40 27.5 42.2
50 23.3 39.7


The inlet pipe to the pump is 0.06 m in diameter commercial steel and 8.5 m in length with a
fanning friction factor of 0.0046. The discharge line consists of 60 m of 0.06 m diameter steel
pipe. All valves are fully open globe valves. Determine the flow rate through the system.
