For a centrifugal pump operating at its rated flow rate – with a flow rate of 110 m3/h, head of 85 m, efficiency of 65%, and rotational speed of 2900 rpm – the shaft power required to transport water at room temperature is ( ) kW, while the power of the motor needed is ( ) kW. Answer: 39.2, 45
At its rated flow rate, a centrifugal pump with a flow rate of 110 m3/h, a head of 85 m, an efficiency of 65%, and a rotational speed of 2900 rpm has an axial power of (39.2) kW when transporting clean water at room temperature; the power required for the motor driving this pump is (45) kW
