Story based examination
The farmer wants effective irrigation and
called his son to help him in his work.
The small well in the corner of field is
containing water with a depth of 30
meters (1) with mud and solid
impurities (2) and selection of pump is necessary in this situation
considering discharge of 20 lit/sec. The
pressure of water (3) is to be measured
at inlet and outlet of the pump (4) with
suitable measuring instruments.
One of his friends told him to measure flow of water at outlet (5) and
control flow instead of full flow of
water with suitable valve(6). There is a piping layout in which outlet pipe of pump is connected to small
diameter pipe(7) and branched with Cross connection but losses(8) may occur due
to connections.
The pump after installation fails to start pumping (9) after remedial action works well(10) later he decided
to do bore well and searching for suitable
pump for lifting water from bore well. (10)
