Higher specific speed (200-500) of a centrifugal pump indicates that the pump is of __________ flow type.
-
The variable required to be known in correlations used for estimating the horse power of a centrifugal gas compressor and hence its cost are
P. Inlet pressure Q. Compressor rpm
R. Delivery pressure S. Volumetric flow rate at inlet. -
Theoretical head developed by a centrifugal pump does not depend upon the __________ the impeller.
-
In case of isentropic flow, the speed of sound in an ideal gas is proportional to (where M = molecular weight of the gas)
-
Boundary layer separation is caused by the

A mercury (specific gravity = 13.6) manometer connected across an orificemeter fitted in a pipe shows a manometer reading of 2 cms. If the manometer liquid is changed to carbon tetrachloride (specific gravity = 1.6), then for the same flow rate of water the new manometer reading will be __________ cms.
