NPSH Calculation of Noor Ii Project
NPSH Calculation of Noor Ii Project
NPSH Calculation of Noor Ii Project
Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH). The total suction head in feet (meters) of liquid absolute,
determined at the suction nozzle, and referred to datum, less the vapor pressure of the liquid in feet
(meters) absolute. (NFPA 20 - 2016, Clause No – 3.3.25.1)
So,
NPSHA (Available) = Atmospheric pressure (converted to head) + static head – vapor pressure of
your product – loss in the piping, valves and fittings.
Where,
NPSHA = Atmospheric pressure (converted to head) + static head – vapor pressure of your product –
loss in the piping, valves and fittings.
= 76.1 Feet.
The pump required 23 feet of head at 5000 GPM as per approved datasheet.
