For the model pump below (impeller size: 37.1 cm; shaft speed: 2133.5 rpm), if it is operated to achieve a pump efficiency of 60% at a discharge within the range between 0 and 0.25 m³/s, using a shaft speed of 1800 rpm instead, what will most approximately be the power coefficient? Assume water density 1000 kg/m³.
