A centrifugal pump lifts water against a static head of 32.067 m of which
3.054 m is suction lift. Both the suction and delivery pipes are 12.7 cm in
diameter. The loss of head in suction pipe is 1.07 m of water and in
delivery pipe is 5.955 of water. The impeller is 30.54 cm in diameter and
2.54 em wide at the outlet. It revolves at 1450 rpm and the blade angle at
exit is 35°. The manometric efficiency of the pump is 80% and its overall

PART C— (1x 15= 15 marks)
A pumping plant is forcing the water through a pipe of 60 cm diameter
and frictional loss is 30 m. For reducing the power consumption, it is
proposed to lay another pipe along the side f existing pipe so both pipes
will run parallel for-the entire length and reducea the friction head to
10 m. Find the required diameter of new pipe line assuming friction
factor is same for both pipe lines.

flow is turned through 135° in a vertical plane. The axis at inlet makes
an angle of 50° to horizontal plane and the centre of the outlet section is
1 m above the centre of the inlet section: The total volume of fluid
contained in the bend is 0.12 m®. Due to losses of energy between inlet
and outlet 0.2 m of head is lost. Calculate the magnitude and direction of
the force exerted on the bend by the water flowing through it at 230 lit/s
whgn the inlet pressure is 150.78 kN/m?.
