Water pump and concrete pump force
Force to deliver Concrete
We need 1 bar for pumping every 3 meter of horizontal concrete pipe, we need 1 bar for pumping every 1 meter of vertical concrete pipe
Force to deliver water
Answer. 1 bar can send water vertically up 10 meter.
To determine how high the water can go, we can use the relationship between pressure and height in a column of water:
h = P / (ρ × g)
Where:
- h = height of the water column (in meters)
- P = pressure (in Pascals)
- ρ = density of water (≈ 1000 kg/m³)
- g = acceleration due to gravity (≈ 9.81 m/s²)
Given:
- P = 6 bar = 6 × 10⁵ Pa
Substitute the values:
h = (6 × 10⁵) / (1000 × 9.81)
h ≈ (6 × 10⁵) / 9810
h ≈ 61.2 m
Conclusion:
The water can reach a height of approximately **61.2 meters** if there are no losses due to air resistance, friction, or other factors.
