Why is this use of specific speed important? Illustrate with a specific example. A variety of pump configurations like the ones shown in Fig. 12.18 were tested over a range of flow rates. Performance data like those shown in Fig. 12.17 were acquired. For each pump configuration, the operation at maximum efficiency was noted and the specific speed, N, , (Eq. 12. 43) was calculated for that condition of flow. These specific speed values calculated at maximum efficiency operation were then used to distribute the different pump configurations as shown in Fig. 12.18. Specific speed is important because from desired design operational data (@, Q, and h, ) a specific speed value can be determined. With that value of specific speed and Fig. 12.18 the designer can decide what kind of pump configuration to use for maximum efficiency operation. For example, at lower values of specific speed, a centrifugal pump is generally best. At higher values of specific speed, an axial-flow pump may be best. In between values of specific speed may suggest that a mixed-flow pump would serve most efficiently. 12,29. 1229 Use the data given in Problem 12.15 and plot the dimensionless coefficients C,, Cy, 1) versus Co for this pump. Calculate a meaningful value of specific speed, discuss its use~ fulness, and compare the result with data of Fig. 12.18.
