1. Coefficient of Discharge ($C_d$):It is defined as the ratio between the theoretical discharge $(Q_{th})$ and the actual rate of discharge $(Q_{act})$.

$\hspace{5cm}C_d = \frac{Q_{th}}{Q_{act}}$

2.Volumetric efficiency: Volumetric efficiency is defined as the percentage of theoretical pump flow available to do useful work. It is the measure of a pump’s …
