What is a pump?A hi th t i t ki ti d t ti l A machine that imparts kinetic and potential energy to a liquid to force a discharge from the machine. A machine that moves a volume of liquid from a lower to higher elevation or energy level. A machine that moves liquid along a pipeline.
General form:E E E E ET = Ep + Ev + Ez
Conservation of energy E1 = E2
Including losses & pumps:g p p Ep1 + Ev1 + Ez1 + EA = Ep2 + Ev2 + Ez2 + Ef
In terms of pressure head: In terms of pressure head: Hp1 + Hv1 + Hz1 + HA = Hp2 + Hv2 + Hz2 + Hf
Open to AtmosphereH H 0 Hp1 = Hp2 = 0
For Large Reservoir Hv1 = Hv2 = 0
Simplified equationp q Hz1 – Hf1 + HA – Hf2 = Hz2

Energy Grade Line (EGL) EGL = Hp + Hv + Hz + Hfp
Hydraulic Grade Line (HGL) HGL = Hp + Hz + Hf = EGL – Hv
Total Dynamic Head (TDH) TDH = Static (Hz) + Friction (Hf )
