Baljit S BaggaPumps an Overview

Net Positive Suction HeadNet Positive Suction Head

NPSH & CAVITATION• NPSH as the total suction head in feet absolute, determined

at the suction nozzle and corrected to datum, less the vapor pressure of the liquid in feet absolute. – NPSHA is defined as static head + surface pressure head - the

vapor pressure of your product - loss in the piping, valves and fittings

– This is the minimum head required to stop the pump from caviating.

• Cavitation means that cavities are forming in the liquid that we are pumping. This causes.– loss in capacity. – loss of pump head (pressure) – Efficiency Loss. – Noise, Vibration, and damage to pump components.

• Occurs when NPSHA < NPSHR

• Bubbles of vapor form in suction passages• Bubbles collapse violently when they reach a

point of higher pressure• Results:

– Pitting of impeller, sometimes severe– Noise, sound of “rattling stones”

• Damage– Greater with single component liquids, e.g. water– Multi-component liquids do not re-condense so

suddenly. However, head/flow capacity loss will result.

Surveillance - Eliminating CavitationSurveillance - Eliminating Cavitation

1. Increase NPSHA

– Elevate the supply vessel or lower the pump (increase elevation differential)

– Shorten the suction piping or increase diameter (reduce suction friction losses)

– Reduce fluid temperature (reduce PV)

– Use a booster pump

System Calculations

Surveillance - Eliminating CavitationSurveillance - Eliminating Cavitation

2. Reduce NPSHR

– Increase throttling in the discharge line, this action will reduce rate and increase suction pressure

– Use an oversized pump or double-suction pump– Use an impeller with a larger eye

SUBJECT: PLAYING WITH A FEW PUMP TERMS • In any discussion of centrifugal pumps you will find

that there are several terms that are interrelated:

• Head , Capacity, Horsepower & Efficiency

• TDH = the total discharge head measured in feet / meter

• GPM = gallons per minute / liters per second.

• HP = horsepower required (or KW).

• Efficiency - defined as horsepower (water horsepower) out of the pump divided by the horsepower (brake horsepower) into the pump.

These numbers are shown on pump print and Nameplate.

• To provide good control of the oil export process, a discharge control valve should be added to the flow path. The head loss of the discharge control valve should be approximately 30% of the frictional head loss of the export flowline.

• Determine the system head, the required pump discharge pressure when the control valve is added to the existing flowline and calculate the required BHP for the oil export pump. Do the calculations for Ramp-up, Design, and Abandonment.

4.2 Pump designations – and illustrations of the Overhung (6 types) of pumps

4.2.1 Pump type OH1 - Foot-mounted single-stage overhung pumps shall be designated pump type OH1. (This type does not meet all the requirements of this International Standard, see Table 2.) Figure 1 — Pump type OH1

4.2.2 Pump type OH2 - Centreline-mounted single-stage overhung pumps shall be designated pump type OH2. They have a single bearing housing to absorb all forces imposed upon the pump shaft and maintain rotor position during operation. The pumps are mounted on a baseplate and are flexibly coupled to their drivers. Figure 2 — Pump type OH2

4.2.3 Pump type OH3 - Vertical in-line single-stage overhung pumps with separate bearing brackets shall be designated pump type OH3. They have a bearing housing integral with the pump to absorb all pump loads. The driver is mounted on a support integral to the pump. The pumps and their drivers are flexibly coupled. Figure 3 — Pump type OH3

4.2.4 Pump type OH4 - Rigidly coupled vertical in-line single-stage overhung pumps shall be designated pump type OH4. Rigidly coupled pumps have their shaft rigidly coupled to the driver shaft. (This type does not meet all the requirements of this International Standard, see Table 2.) Figure 4 — Pump type OH4

4.2.5 Pump type OH5 - Close-coupled vertical in-line single-stage overhung pumps shall be designated pump type OH5. Close coupled pumps have their impellers mounted directly on the driver shaft. (This type does not meet all the requirements of this International Standard, see Table 2.) Figure 5 — Pump type OH5

4.2.6 Pump type OH6 - High-speed integral gear-driven single-stage overhung pumps shall be designated pump type OH6. These pumps have a speed increasing gearbox integral with the pump. The impeller is mounted directly to the gearbox output shaft. There is no coupling between the gearbox and pump; however, the gearbox is flexibly coupled to its driver. The pumps may be oriented vertically or horizontally. Figure 6 — Pump type OH6
