For example, if RPM dropped to 70% of the original, feet of head would drop by (70% x 70%) = ( x ) = = 49% of the original affinity laws - The Affect0204060801001200246810 GPM Feet of Head Law 3 means that as RPM is reduced, power consumption (brake horsepower) is reduced by the cube.
The Affinity Laws - Formulas • The Affinity Laws describe how changes in RPM (N) affect GPM, HEAD, and HP in centrifugal pumps. There are three laws:
