SOLVE for Function Vectors

[mfleming]

Hi NomadVehr,

Welcome! I hope you find this forum both helpful and challenging (in a good way!) I'm at something of a "freshman skill level" with the Prime CAS myself, so I'm not likely to contribute directly to the answer to your question. However, your question does fall into the "show your work" category of problems posted here.

You mention head/efficiency/shaft power. Could you explain the problem you are trying to solve in terms suitable for a general audience, i.e. a water pumping station design problem? Next, could you show the equations you are working with that are used to solve the design problem? Lastly, you mention a program you wrote that addresses your design problem. The program code, if not too large, might help show how you went about trying to solve the design problem you have.

No need to do all at once! Start by describing the problem itself and your own goals. This should attract the attention of those in the forum with a similar background to your own (there are a number of Civil and Mechanical engineers posting here regularly) After that, hopefully the mathematical details will follow, and eventually advice on solving the problem itself.

As I said, I probably can't help you with the problem itself, but it does sound interesting to hear more about!
