Solved Problem Ch14

This document contains solved problems related to turbomachinery. It begins with definitions of thrust coefficient, power coefficient, and efficiency for propellers. It then discusses head coefficient and power coefficient for axial pumps, as well as specific speed, discharge coefficient, and the effect of cavitation. Problems are provided relating to propellers, axial pumps, centrifugal pumps, and specific speed. The document concludes with discussions of theoretical adiabatic power, specific speed for turbines, power from wind turbines, and torque for reaction turbines.
