Question:
The pump shown draws water through an 8 in. suction pipe and discharges it through a 3 in. pipe in which the velocity is 12 ft/s. The 6 in. pipe discharges horizontally into air at C. To what height h above the water surface at A can the water be raised if 14 hp is used by the pump? Th e pump operates at 60% efficiency and that the head loss in the pipe between A and C is equal to 2 V2C/2g. Assume α = 1.0 throughout.
