A centrifugal pump was tested for cavitation initiation. Total head was
40 m and flow rate was 0.06 m3/s. Cavitation started when the total head at the suction side
was 3 m. The atmospheric pressure was 760 mm Hg and the vapour pressure at this temperature
was 2 kPa. It was proposed to install the pump where the atmospheric pressure is 700 mm Hg
and the vapour pressure at the location temperature is 1 kPa. If the pump develops the same
total head and flow, can the pump be fixed as the same height as the lab setup ? What should
be the new height.
