Calculate Suction Head For Pump
Question
A pump is drawing water from a reservoir through a suction pipe of 10.5 m long with the inside diameter of 35 mm at a rate of 2.3 l/s. The pipe is smooth so that the friction factor is given by f = 0.316 Re-0.25 where Re is the pipe Reynolds number and there are other minor losses like the pipe entrance and a control valve with a total loss of 0.58 m. If the maximum net positive suction head of the pump is 2.1 m calculate the suction head for a satisfactory pump operation without the risk of cavitation. Assume water density and dynamic viscosity as p = 1000 kg/m3 and μ = 0.001 kg/ms, respectively and take water vapors pressure as 5.5 kPa and the atmospheric pressure as 100.3kPa.
Assumptions: Take g = 9.81 m/s2 and the density and kinematic energy of water as 1000 kg/m3 and 1 × 10-6 m2/s
Summary
The question belongs to Chemistry and it discusses about calculating the suction head for pump operation without risk cavitation.

I was apprehensive at first about using an online tutoring service that too for a subject as critical as mechanical engineering. But once I gave it a try I know that I need not have worried. The tutors at TheReliableTutor.com are totally in sync with what is required by me. So we are in a good place

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
