+//Chapter 11- Centrifugal Pumps
+//Example 11.8
+//To Determine the Power Required to drive the centrifugal Pump.

+
+//Given Data:-
+ Q=40; //Discharge, litres/s
+ Hst=20; //Static Head, m
+ D=150; //Diameter of Pipe, mm
+ L=100; //length of pipe, m
+ eta_o=70/100; //Overall Efficiency
+ f=0.015; //Coefficient of friction
+
+
+//Data Used:-
+ rho=1000; //Density of water, kg/m^3
+ g=9.81; //Acceleration due to gravity, m/s^2
+
+
+//Computations:-
+ Q=Q/1000; //m^3/s
+ D=D/1000; //m
+
+ A=(%pi/4)*D^2; //m^2
+ V=Q/A; //m/s
+ Vd=V;
+
+ h_f=4*f*L*V^2/(2*g*D); //Frictional Head Loss in Pipe, m
+ Hm=Hst+h_f+Vd^2/(2*g); //Manometric Head, m
+ P=rho*Q*g*Hm/(eta_o*1000); //kW
+
+//Result:-
+ printf("Power Required to drive the Centrifugal Pump=%.3f kW\n",P) //The answer vary due to round off error
