The brake horsepower required for pumping the viscous liquid will be
as shown below
750 x 100 x 0.9
BHPvis. = 3960 x 0.515 = 33.1bhp
To show the viscous performance over a wider range, the same
calculations can be made at the other values of CH. Thus providing the
kind of information shown on Figure 13.5, which can then be plotted
on the characteristic pump curve showing the variation in performance
as on 13.6.
