This experiment tested the performance of a centrifugal pump at 3 different impeller speeds, measuring the pressure, power requirement, flow rate, and influence of pump speed. The data obtained allowed plotting of performance curves showing head and efficiency and shaft power (in BHP) against capacity.

This experiment is a success as we managed to obtain the performance characteristic for a
variable speed of centrifugal pump operating at 3 different impeller speeds. Those performance characteristic are Pressure (head) jump, Power requirement, Flow rate influence and Pump speed influence. Apart from that, from the data obtained, we also managed to plot the performance in head along with the efficiency curve and shaft (in BHP) against capacity.
