Functions of a PumpTransfer fuid between two points.Produce required fow rate.Produce required pressure. Pump - FactsPump changes both velocity and pressure of the fuid.Pump only adds to the system energy.Power supplied to the pump is to transfer fuid at specifed fow rate and pressure by overcoming resistance in the pump and the system.A pump does not create pressure it only provides fow. Pressure is !ust an indication of the amount of resistance to the fow. Viscosity of the fluid pumped must be within the range specified in the pump design.Reciprocating Displacement pumps can handle any required viscosity.Rotary Positive Displacement Pumps ( Common- ear and !crew " are used for intermediate range of viscosities.Centrifugal Pumps are used for #edium to $ow range of viscosities. %nboard ships& permission should be obtained before any fluids are moved& which might affect the stability of the ship.Pumps and "iscosity of Fluid#andled. $entrifugal Pump %&otodynamic' Centrifugal pump distinguished from Positive displacement pump ------ &equirement of relative velocity between the fuid and the impeller. (haped casing or diverging no))le converts *inetic energy into pressure energy. +iquid in the impeller and casing essential for pump operation. $entrifugal Pump.The energy changes occur in a centrifugal pump by virtue of two main parts of the pump.The ,mpeller - The rotating part that converts driverenergy into *inetic energy.The volute or .i/user - The stationary part that converts the *inetic energy into pressure energy.The process liquid enters the suction no))le and then into the eye of the impeller. ,mpeller spins the liquid sitting in the cavities between the vanes outwards and provides centrifugal acceleration. As liquid leaves the eye of the impeller a low pressure area is created causing more liquid to fow towards the inlet. 0ecause the impeller blades are curved the fuid is pushed in a tangential and radial direction by the centrifugal forces.$entrifugal Pump- Theory The process liquid enters the suction no))le and then into the eye of the impeller. ,mpeller spins the liquid sitting in the cavities between the vanes outwards and provides centrifugal acceleration. As liquid leaves the eye of the impeller a low pressure area is created causing more liquid to fow towards the inlet. 0ecause the impeller blades are curved the fuid is pushed in a tangential and radial direction by the centrifugal forces.$entrifugal Pump- Theory $entrifugal Pump - TheoryThe amount of energy given to the liquid is proportional to the velocity at the edge or vane tip of the impeller. The faster the impeller revolves or bigger the impeller is, then higher will be the velocity of the liquid at the vane tip and greater the energy imparted to the liquid. $entrifugal Pump - Theory.The kinetic energy of a liquid coming out of an impeller is harnessed by creating a resistance to the fow. The rst resistance is created by pump volute casing, which catches the liquid and slows it down. !n the discharge no""le, the liquid further decelerates and its velocity is converted to pressure. $entrifugal Pump - #eadThe pressure at any point in a liquid can be thought of as being caused by a vertical column of the liquid due to its weight. The height of this column is called the static head and is e#pressed in terms of meters of liquid. $ead is a measurement of height of a liquid column that a pump could create from kinetic energy imparted to the liquid. !magine a pipe shooting a %et of water straight up into the air, the height the water goes up would be the head. $entrifugal Pump - "apour Pressure&apor pressure is the pressure at which a liquid and its vapor co-e#ist in equilibrium, at a given temperature. &apori"ation begins when the vapor pressure of the liquid at the operating temperature equals the e#ternal system pressure, which in an open system always equal to the atmospheric pressure. 'ny decrease in e#ternal pressure or rise in operating temperature can induce vapori"ation and the pump stops pumping. $entrifugal Pump - "elocity#ead"elocity #ead refers to the energy of a liquid as a result of its motion at some velocity1 " 1. ,t is the equivalent head in meters through which the water would have to fall to acquire the same velocity or the head necessary to accelerate the water."elocity head is insignifcant in most high head systems but it can be large in low head systems.

Pump 4peration - Facts To avoid pump cavitaion ;P(# available must be greater than ;P(# required. ;P(# available is the di/erence between the pump suction pressure and the saturation pressure of the liquid being pumped. $avitation is the process of the formation and subsequent collapse of vapor bubbles in a pump. 8as binding of a centrifugal pump is a condition where the pump casing is flled with gases or vapors to the point where the impeller is no longer able to contact enough fuid to function correctly.Pump 4peration - Facts< ,hut o1 head is the ma#imum head that can bedeveloped by a centrifugal pump operating at a set speed.< Pump run out is the ma#imum fow that can be developed by a centrifugal pump without damaging the pump.< The greater the head against which a pump operates, the lower the fow rate through the pump.< Centrifugal pumps are protected from run-out by placing orice or throttle valve immediately downstream of the pump discharge and through proper piping system design.< The centrifugal pump can be protected from dead-heading by providing a recirculation from the pump discharge back to the supply source of the pump.$entrifugal Pump 4peration -Facts .ischarge Pressure - 7inimum throughput when head is ma6imum.
