Question
Performance curves for Peerless horizontal split case pumps are presented in Appendix D. Develop and plot a curve-fit for a Type $10 \mathrm{AE} 12$ pump driven at 1150 nominal rpm using the procedure described in Example 10.6 .
Step 1
The curve is given by $H = 157R - 3 \times 10^{-6} Q^2$, where $H$ is the head, $R$ is the rotational speed, and $Q$ is the flow rate. Show more…

Performance curves for Peerless horizontal split case pumps are presented in Appendix D. Develop and plot curve-fits for a Type $16 \mathrm{A} 18 \mathrm{B}$ pump, with impeller diameter $D=18.0$ in., driven at 705 and 880 nominal rpm. Verify the effects of pump speed on scaling pump curves using the procedure described in Example 10.6 .
Use data from Appendix D to choose points from the performance curves for a Peerless horizontal split case Type 4AE12 pump at 1750 and 3550 nominal rpm. Obtain and plot curve-fits for total head versus delivery at each speed for this pump, with a 12 -in.-diameter impeller.
Appendix $D$ contains area bound curves for pump model selection and performance curves for individual pump models. Use these data to verify the similarity rules for a Peerless Type $4 \mathrm{AE} 12$ pump, with impeller diameter $D=11.0$ in., operated at 1750 and 3550 nominal rpm.
