NPSH Calculation

The document discusses the calculations for Net Positive Suction Head Available (NPSHA). NPSHA is calculated using the gauge pressure inside the tank, barometric pressure, vapor pressure of the liquid, liquid density, acceleration due to gravity, liquid velocity, static head, and frictional losses in the suction piping. When all these factors are accounted for, the NPSHA is calculated to be 12.51 meters for the example given.
