An oil pump is drawing 18 kW of electric power while pumping oil with density 860 kg/m³ at a rate of 0.1 m³/s. The inlet and outlet diameters of the pipe are 8 cm and 20 cm, respectively. If the pressure rise of oil in the pump is measured to be 250 kPa and the motor efficiency is 95 percent, determine the mechanical efficiency of the pump. Take the kinetic energy correction factor as 1.05. Pump 8 cm Docm 18 kW Motor Oil ΔΡ = 250 kPa 0.1 m³/s The mechanical efficiency of the pump is %.
