Which of the following statement about pump performance curves is incorrect? O Pump head curve indicates how much energy (or power) that a pump can provide to the flow at different discharges. O Break horse power (BHP) curve indicates the energy (or power) that a pump consumes at different discharges. O Best efficiency point (BEP) is the maximum efficiency that a pump may achieve within its operating discharge range. O Net positive suction head (NPSH) curve indicates the minimum NPSH values at different discharges in order to avoid cavitation.
