β¦ Synopsis
A procedure is presented which allows optimum selection of pumps and windmills for a given water pumping situation. When information on the wind, pump characteristics and windmill characteristics is available, the best pump and windmill for the application may be selected, and the design and off-design performance of the complete system may be predicted.
