A two-lobe rotary positive-displacement pump moves 0.60 cm3 of motor oil in each lobe volume. For every 90° of rotation of the shaft, one lobe volume is pumped. If the rotation rate is 550 rpm, the volume flow rate of oil is (a) 330 cm3 /min (b) 660 cm3 /min (c) 1320 cm3 /min (d) 2640 cm3 /min (e) 3550 cm3 /min
The original design of a hydraulic turbine has data as follows: flow rate of 1 cumex, effective head of 50 m, and runner diameter of 1.5 m. If the same turbine design is to be used in another application where the available flow is 2.5 cumex and effective head is 75 m, what would be the runner diameter (in meters) for this new application?

An existing pump is used to pump water with the following data at BEP: D = 2.15 in, N = 1784 rpm, ρ = 998 kg/m3, Q = 18 gpm, H = 4.2 ft. A larger pump is to be designed based from the existing one to be used for pumping slurry (ρ = 1220 kg/m3) such that its best efficiency point occurs as close as possible to a volume flow rate of 48 gpm and at a net head of 15 ft. Calculate the new pump diameter in inches. Round off your final answer to 3 decimal places.

Water from a reservoir is pumped over a hill through a pipe 450 mm in diameter and a pressure of 1 kg/cm2 is maintained at the summit. Water discharge is 30 m above the reservoir. The quantity pumped is 0.5 m3/sec. Frictional losses in the discharge and suction pipe and pump is equivalent to 1.5 m head loss.
