NPSH Available in Open Vessel System at Sea Level

Assume tank liquid level is 10 feet above center line of pump, then S = +10 feet. [Pg.190]

Assume that friction losses have been calculated to be 1.5 feet, hSL = 1.5 [Pg.190]

Note For worst case, which is an empty tank, S becomes S. - on the diagram. [Pg.190]
