1. The radial component of velocity of water leaving the centrifugal pump rotating at 3000
rpm sketched in Fig is 14 m/s. The magnitude of the absolute velocity at the pump exit is
28 m/s. The fluid enters the pump rotor radially. Calculate the shaft work required per
unit mass flowing through the pump.

 2. A centrifugal water pump having an impeller diameter of 0.5 m operates at 900 rpm. The
water enters the pump parallel to the pump shaft. If the exit blade angle, ϐ 2 is 250,
determine the shaft power required to turn the impeller when the flow through the pump
is 0.16 m3/s. The uniform blade height is 50 mm.

 3. A centrifugal pump impeller (30 cm diameter and 2.5 cm height) is rotating at 1200 rpm
in the direction shown in Fig. The flow enters parallel to the axis of rotation and leaves at
an angle of 30o to the radial direction. The absolute exit velocity, V2 is 28 m/s. (a) Draw
the velocity triangle for the impeller exit flow. (b) Estimate the torque necessary to turn
the impeller if the fluid is water. What will the impeller rotation speed become if the shaft
breaks?

 4. Water at 40 C is pumped from an open tank through 200 m of 50-mm-diameter smooth
horizontal pipe as shown in Fig. and discharges into the atmosphere with a velocity of 3
m/s. Minor losses are negligible. (a) If the efficiency of the pump is 70%, how much
power is being supplied to the pump? (b) What is the NPSHA at the pump inlet? Neglect
losses in the short section of pipe connecting the pump to the tank. Assume standard
atmospheric pressure.

 5. A centrifugal pump having an impeller diameter of 1 m is to be constructed so that it will
supply a head rise of 200 m at a flow-rate of 4.1 m3/s of water when operating at a speed
of 1200 rpm. To study the characteristics of this pump, a 1/5 scale, geometrically similar
model operated at the same speed is to be tested in the laboratory. Determine the required
model discharge and head rise. Assume that both model and prototype operate with the
same efficiency (and therefore the same flow coefficient).

when a 0.2 m3/s flow-rate is against 18 m head. The impeller is changed to one with a 0.3
m diameter. Determine the expected flow-rate, head, and input power if the pump speed
remains the same.

factor to be equal to 0.02. Neglect all minor losses.
