If the pipe diameter before and after a pump is the same wha

If the pipe diameter before and after a pump is the same, what happens to the velocity? Does it increase or decrease or remain the same? * Note: wouldn\'t it depend on the type of pump therefore not having a right answer?

Solution

If the pipe diameter is same at inlet and outlet then Velocity at the discharge decreases.As the pipe diameter is same at suction and discharge, the pressure will be more so the velocity decreases.
