In case of a centrifugal pump, the theoretical head developed is dependent on the _____________ the impeller?
Correct answer: D. All A., B. and C.
- A. Speed of
- B. Diameter of
- C. Fluid velocity leaving
- D. All A., B. and C.
Explanation
The theoretical centrifugal-pump head follows Euler’s pump equation and depends on impeller speed, impeller diameter, and the velocity component at impeller exit. Therefore, all three listed factors can affect the head.
