Discussion of Experiment
A centrifugal pump contains an impeller or set of vanes encased in housing. Energy is added to the fluid in the form of velocity and pressure as a result of the impeller turning. An engineer must determine the range of flow rates required when using a centrifugal pump. The centrifugal pump chosen for an application must have a head versus flow rate relationship matches the demand of the piping system connected to. Head and flow rate data can be presented in graphical or table form.
Discussion and Conclusion
The result of conducting this experiment for characterizing the head and flow rate relation is summarized in Table 1, Figure 1 and Figure 2. Table 1 Centrifugal Pump @ 1750 RPM, shows......
