A. Pressure developed and power consumed by the Pump is directly proportional to the density of the liquid. This is explained as under. If a Pump develops 1kg / cm2 pressure and consumes 1 Kw power for a density of 1 g / cm3 the pressure developed by the Pump for another liquid of a density of 1.5g / cm2 and power consumed will be 1.5 Kw.
