Determine the shaft power of the pump in kilowatts


A pump is used to move water from a lower reservoir to an upper reservoir. The water surface elevation in the upper reservoir is 30 meters above the water surface elevation in the lower reservoir. The pipe is steel , 1000m long , with a diameter of 400mm. The flow rate 5.4 cubic meters per minute. The pump efficiency is 60%. Ignore minor losses. Determine the shaft power of the pump in kilowatts.
