Note: In the case of a very large x axis range, the curves rapidly

grow from 33m of head. The difference between the values for
efficiency, head and flow rate is negligible in that case as it
impacts the system.

Fuel oil (sp. wt
10-5 Ibs/ft2) is pumped through the piping system of Fig.
P12. with a velocity (jf 4.6 ftjs. TlJe pressure 200 ft upstre
from the pump is 5 psi. Pipe losses downstream from the pump
are negligible. but minor losses are not (minor loss coefficients
are given on the figure). (a) For a pipe diameter of 2 in. with a
relative roughness e/D 0.001 . determine the head that must
be added by the pump. (b) For a pump operating speed of 1750
rpm, what type of pump (radial-flow, mixed-How, or axial-flow)
would you recommend for this application?
