An oil pump is drawing 44kW of electric power while pumping oil with p = 860 kg/m^3 at a rate of 0.1 m^3/s. The inlet and outlet diameters of the pipe are 8cm and 12cm, respectively. If the pressure rise of oil in the pump is measured to be 500 kPa and the motor efficiency is 90 percent, determine the mechanical efficiency of the pump.
lunzontal pipe and pump system in the following figure discharges 0.01583 m3/s. The gage pressure iust before the pressure is 400 The m/s2 losses between 20°C water at 57 m3/h 0 kPa and just after the pump the gage a. The pump inlet diameter is 9 cm and the outlet diameter is 3 em. Let g-9.81 pump is 12 o Pwater9 kg/m, Hwate0.001002 kgm-s) and Pat the two pressure points and the pump. But consider frictional losses at the 9-cm...
