    Pumps Centrifugal

    Uploaded by

    Ehab Abowarda
    The document discusses the key components and design considerations for centrifugal pumps, including: - The casing and volute that house the impeller and allow for gradual expansion of the fluid, increasing efficiency. - Impellers that are surrounded by wear rings and diffusers to transfer energy to the fluid being pumped. - Pump types are classified according to installation and flow configuration, such as end suction pumps, vertical submersible pumps, and multistage pumps. - Performance is affected by factors like net positive suction head available, vapor pressure, and cavitation which can damage impellers.

    CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS

    DESIGN AND OPERATION

    CASING

    VOLUTE

    Diffuser
    A set of stationary vanes that surround the
    impeller, allowing more gradual expansion,
    resulting in increased pump effieceincy.

    IMPELLERS

    WEAR RINGS
    Replaceable rings
    that are attached
    to the impeller
    and/or the casing
    to allow a small
    running clearance
    without causing
    wear of the
    impeller or the
    casing.

    IMPELLER SUCTION

    DOUBLE SUCTION IMPELLERS

    IMPELLER THRUST

    BODY CONSTRUCTION

    API 610 PUMP TYPES

    PUMP TYPE OH1

    END SUCTION OVERHUNG

    PUMP TYPE BB1

    VERTICAL SUMERSIBLE PUMPS

    MULTISTAGE PUMPS

    THRUST BEARING

    IMPELLER ARRANGEMENT

    PERFORMANCE CURVES

    VAPOR PRESSURE

    CAVITATION

    DAMAGED IMPELLER

    NET POSITIVE SUCTION HEAD


    The net inlet pressure (in absolute terms) of the
    pipe and fitting losses is what is available at
    pump inlet and this is called as the Net
    Positive Suction Head available or NPSH-a.
    The vapor pressure of the liquid is subtracted
    from the NPSH-a. In pump terminology, NPSHa includes vapor pressure correction.
