Lump-Sum Agreement - The contractor agrees to construct the project, in accordance with the contract documents, for a set price arrived at through competitive bidding or negotiation.
Unit-Price Agreement - the contractor bases the bid on estimated quantities of work and on completion of the work in accordance with the contract documents. Payments are made based on the price that the contractor bids for each unit of work, and field checks with measurements of work actually completed.
Cost-Plus-Fee Agreements - the contractor is reimbursed for the construction costs as defined in the agreement. However, the contractor is not reimbursed for all items and complete understanding of reimbursable and non-reimbursable costs is required.

An adiabatic pump receives liquid water at 25°C and 100 kPa. The water exits at 30.0 MPa and 40.0°C. Using your pump model, plot the power required for this pumping operation for entering volumetric flow rates ranging from 0.001 m3/s to 1.0 m3/s.
Given: P1 = 100 kPa; T1 = 25°C; P2 = 30,000 kPa; T2 = 40°C Water (Take State 1 as the inlet, State 2 as the outlet.) Assume: Q?=0 (adiabatic). For a compressor, assume steady-state, steady-flow, single-inlet, single-outlet flow, with ?KE = ?PE = 0 What will be an ideal response?
