Catalog data for a centrifugal water pump at design conditions
are 0-250 gpm and Ap-18.6 psi at 1750 rpm. A laboratory flume
requires 200 gpm at 32 ft of head. The only motor available
develops 3 hp at 1750 rpm. Is this motor suitable for the
laboratory flume? How might the pump/ motor match be improved?
