🔍 Key Concepts

• Static suction head vs. suction lift in pump systems • Relationship between liquid level and pump centerline • Difference between static head and losses due to friction

💭 Think About

• Think about what the word static means in fluid systems. Is it about motion/flow, or just the position/height of the liquid? • Visualize a pump at one height and the liquid level in the suction tank at another height. When the liquid level is above the pump, what does that create at the suction? When it is below, what is that called? • Which choice talks about energy losses (like friction) rather than just the geometric height difference?

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which options talk only about a vertical distance/height and which introduce pressure or losses concepts. • Make sure your choice matches a condition where the pump does not have to lift the liquid to reach it, but instead has liquid already higher than the pump. • Confirm that static positive suction head is purely a geometric/head condition, not something measured in terms of friction loss or inches of mercury below atmospheric.
