    2 pumps in series - different flow rates

    Hello, I have a general question regarding 2 different pumps in series. In this situation the head is added and flow remains the same Q = Q pump1 = Q pump2. Also I read if the capacities of the pumps are different the flow is determided by the smallest pump. But in practical situation , what...
