    NCEES 2011 No. 502

    This question got me all confused. The final part says the inlet head is 10ft above the invert of the inlet end . I find it hard to understand/visualize the basin as described. Viessman & Hammer defined h as the elevation of the center-line of the outlet. Now, I would understand if the...

    Six minute solution???

    Thanks Jacob. The NCEES solution calculated "n sub s" as 591 and selected a radial flow impeller. Thanks for adding to the confusion :sharkattack:

    QUESTION Given a net total dynamic head of 1200ft and a flow of 10cfs, which type of single stage impeller would be the most efficient to use? The solution used 1800 as the impeller speed. I need help figuring out where the 1800rpm in the solution came from. It is not mentioned in the...

    Structural AM preparation

    I am currently reading for the structural AM of the exam and I feel like I`m reading endlessly . Can anyone tell me the chapters I should limit myself to in order to be well prepared for the AM Structural? I don`t want to waste too much time. I`m taking WRE depth. Thank you. :multiplespotting:
