1) Calculate the pump delvery in L/min. (remember units conversion)
L Qp V p . n p .η vp Q p = 17.075 min
2) Calculate the required torque to drive the pump. Write a sentence
explaining what types of devices could be used to drive the pump.
V p .∆p Tp T p = 19.634 N .m 2 .π . η tp
Electric motors or engines are commonly used to drive a pump for fluid power.
3) Calculate the shaft power required to drive the pump. Explain the relationship between shaft power and the fluid power that the pump can deliver (i.e, why is one greater than the other). Fluid Power:
P fl Q p .∆p P fl = 2.931 kW
Shaft Power: P fl P sp P sp = 3.701 kW η vp .η tp
Shaft power is always greater than fluid power because of losses.
