Problem solving: 1. A pump delivering 31.5 lps of water has a 40.64 cm diameter suction pipe and 35.56 cm diameter discharge pipe. The suction vacuum gage that is 8 cm below the pump centerline reads 127 mmHg below atmospheric pressure. The discharge gage that is 46 cm above the pump centerline reads 73.14 kPa. What is the head of the pump? Determine the pump break power if the pump efficiency is 82%.
