EXAMPLE C6. SAMPLE CALCULATION FOR SUMP PUMP (concluded)
3.63 ft/sec
Solution for #2: The losses from pipe fittings and pipes transitions can be calculated as follows:
0.25 ft
Solution for #3: To calculate the losses over the length of the pipe:
0.876 ft
Solution for #4: To calculate the total dynamic head:
TH =
11.772 ft
NOTE: Therefore select a pump capable of pumping 20 gal/min at 11.77 ft of total head.
