Consider the flow system described in Problem 8.175 Select a pump appropriate for this application. Check the NPSHR versus the NPSHA for this system.
Write the pump specific speed in terms of the flow coefficient and the head coefficient.
Suppose there are three identical pumps in series, each producing 1500 ft of head at a flow rate of 1000 gpm capacity. In another case, there are three pumps in series that have differing heads of 1500 ft, 1200 ft, and 1400 ft at 1000 gpm. Find the total head and flow rate generated and discuss the difference if connected in parallel.
