Chapter 12, Problem 12.34

(choose chapter or problem)

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 flowrate of \(\mathrm{4.1~ m^3 /s }\) 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).
