Slip of Pump Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Pump Slippage = Theoretical Discharge-Actual Discharge
S = Q_th-Q_act
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Pump Slippage - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Pump Slippage is the fluid's volumetric flow rate reduction due to internal leakage in a pump, affecting its overall efficiency and performance.
Theoretical Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Theoretical Discharge is the rate of flow of a fluid that is theoretically possible under ideal conditions, considering various fluid parameters.
Actual Discharge - (Measured in Cubic Meter per Second) - Actual Discharge is the quantity of fluid that actually flows through a pipe or channel, considering factors like pressure and flow rate.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Theoretical Discharge: 0.04 Cubic Meter per Second --> 0.04 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Actual Discharge: 0.037 Cubic Meter per Second --> 0.037 Cubic Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

S = Q_th-Q_act --> 0.04-0.037

Evaluating ... ...

S = 0.003

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.003 Cubic Meter per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.003 Cubic Meter per Second <-- Pump Slippage

(Calculation completed in 00.004 seconds)
