to interprete.
‘Values ascertained so far (from Chapter 6.)
Flow rate 24.0 mth
Rea. flow head 33.0 m
NPSHay, 9.4m
‘These are the relevant values for finding out the optimal pump by use of diagrams,
‘The first diagram to be used is the QJH Diagram (Fig. 20 the diagram of a TP 2030}. Fest the
intersection point ofthe flow rate (24 mh) with flow head (33 m) should be made out. The
intersection point is located in the area of the impeller of 160 mm in diameter.
The pump efficiency (y) stead in Fig. 2 and amounts to approximately 57 %
