Determine gauge pressure and total head of the fluid


Consider a pump that moves Q=0.1 m3/s of oil (S.G. = 0.8) from an open reservoir through a 10 cm diameter pipe. The pump draws 20 kW of power and operates at 50% efficiency. Determine (1) the gauge pressure (kPa) and (2) the total head of the fluid (m) immediately downstream of the pump.
