Hello All
Any one can help me to understand this problem
A two - stage centrifugal pump draws water from an inlet 10 ft below its eye.Each stage of the pump adds 150 ft head .
What is the approximate maximum suggested speed of this application?
(A) 900 RPM (B) 1200 RPM (c) 1700 RPM (D) 2000 RPM
Solution:
This problem is solved graphically using the chart of maximum suction lift from standards of Hydraulic Institute
Each stage adds 150ft of head and the suction lift is 10ft . There for a single suction pump equal to 2050(2000 rpm) Answer C.
