Suppose you are looking into purchasing a water pump with the performance data shown in

Chapter 14, Problem 14-35

(choose chapter or problem)

Suppose you are looking into purchasing a water pump with the performance data shown in Table P1435. Your supervisor asks for some more information about the pump. (a) Estimate the shutoff head H0 and the free delivery V . max of the pump. [Hint: Perform a leastsquares curve fit (regression analysis) of Havailable versus V . 2 , and calculate the best-fit values of coefficients H0 and a that translate the tabulated data of Table P1435 into the parabolic expression, Havailable 5 H0 2 aV . 2 . From these coefficients, estimate the free delivery of the pump.] (b) The application requires 57.0 Lpm of flow at a pressure rise across the pump of 5.8 psi. Is this pump capable of meeting the requirements? Explain.
