Uitm Lab Report

The document presents calculations for determining the operating characteristics of pump A. It provides parameters of the pump including coefficients, area, density, and viscosity. It then shows a table with flow rate, velocity, Reynolds number, and required and available head values calculated at various flow rates. A sample calculation is shown to determine friction factor, velocity, and Reynolds number at 4 Lpm. Finally, graphs are presented showing the relationship between required head and flow rate and available versus required head.
