A single-acting reciprocating pump discharge 0.018 m3
/s of water per second when
running at 60 rpm. Stroke length is 60 cm and the diameter of the piston is 25 cm. If
the total lift is 25 m. Also, there are friction losses of amount to 2 m each in the
suction and delivery pipe, determine:
a) Theoretical discharge of the pump
b) Slip and percentage slip of the pump
c) Co-efficient of discharge
d) Power required running the pump
