This document sizes a fire reserve tank recirculation pump for a project. It calculates that the required pump flow rate is 7.88 liters per second at a head of 2.7 bars to transfer 227 cubic meters of water over 8 working hours. The suction and delivery pipe sizes are determined to be 100 mm. One duty pump and one standby pump, each with a capacity of 7.88 liters per second, are required.
