Question:

A double acting reciprocating pump has a piston of \(400 \mathrm{~mm}\) diameter and piston rod of \(40 \mathrm{~mm}\) diameter. Stroke length is \(300 \mathrm{~mm}\) and speed is \(60 \mathrm{rpm}\). The suction and discharge heads are \(8 \mathrm{~m}\) and \(18 \mathrm{~m}\), respectively. Determine: (i) the force required to run the pump during in and out strokes, (ii) quantity of water in \(\mathrm{m}^{3} / \mathrm{sec}\) raised by the pump, and (iii) power required to run the pump.
