Pump Sizing Calculation

The document provides details on sizing a feed pump for a given flowrate, density, viscosity, and vapor pressure. It includes calculations for differential pressure, head, power requirements, and available net positive suction head. Pipe dimensions, fittings, velocities, and pump curve data are also listed to determine the required pump specifications.
