The axial flow pump produces a discharge of 0.095 m3/s. If the impeller is rotating at 80 rad/s, and it has a mean radius of 75 mm, determine the velocity of the water as it exits the blades, and the relative velocity of the water as it flows off the blades of the impeller.
The velocity of water flowing onto the 40-mm-wide impeller blades of the radial-flow pump is directed at 20° as shown. If the flow leaves the blades at the blade angle of 40°, determine the torque the pump shaft must exert on the impeller.
