The basic jet pump theory is discussed in Karassik's Pump Handbook scanned into "Jet Pump - Pump Handbook.pdf". 
This PDF is of pages 4.2 to 4.9 in the second edition. The third edition has most of the same content on pages 
4.24 to 4.31, with some new theory preceding this which the second edition does not have. Only refer to this PDF 
if you need background explanation of jet pumps and theory. Otherwise, skip this.


Fathom model file

The performance curve Figure 5 on page 4.9 of the PDF is modeled in the attached Fathom model (Jet Pump Example.fth). 
The Fathom model also has an equivalent centrifugal pump model which gives further insight into how the jet pump 
model works.


Excel file

The Excel file "Jet Pump Example.xls" has screen captures and calculations of the jet pump input to explain how it works, 
as well as output calculations taken from the "Jet Pump Example.fth" model. This connects the PDF theory to the Fathom 
model input and output.
