DESCRIPTION:
A centrifugal pump is a mechanical device designed to move a fluid by means
of the transfer of rotational energy from one or more driven rotors, called
impellers. Fluid enters the rapidly rotating impeller along its axis and is cast out
by centrifugal force along its circumference through the impeller's vane tips.
The two major parts of the device are the impeller (a wheel with vanes) and
the circular pump casing around it. The mechanical power generally supplies
by the electric motor or engine. A centrifugal pump uses a centrifugal force to
pump the fluids. Therefore, it is known as a centrifugal pump.
THEORY:
PROCEDURE:
Set up the hydraulics bench valves, to perform the single pump test.
Start pump and increase the speed until the pump is operating at 60
rev/sec.
Turn the bench regulating valve to the fully closed position.
Record the pump 1 inlet pressure (P1) and outlet pressure (P2). Record
the input power from the watt-meter (Wi).
For each control valve position, measure the flow rate by either
collecting a suitable volume of water (a minimum of 10 liters) in the
measuring tank, or by using the Rota meter.
Increase the speed until the pump is operating at 70 rev/sec and 80
rev/sec.
COMMENTS:
It can be concluded that from the calculations of data and percentage of
error, the experiment carried out validities the theoretical expression for
the force exerted by a jet on a target and hence the objective of the
experiment is achieved.
Even though there are some errors for the experimental values with the
theoretical values.

THEORY:
PROCEDURE:
01.Set up the hydraulics bench valves to perform the two pumps in series test.
02.Start pumps 1 and 2, and increase the speed until the pumps are operating
at 60 rev/sec.
03.Turn the bench regulating valve to the fully closed position.
04.Record the pump 1 and 2 inlet pressure (P1) and outlet pressure (P2).
Record the input power for pump 1 from the wattmeter (Wi). (With the
regulating valve fully closed, discharge will be zero.)
05.Repeat steps 3 and 4 by setting the bench regulating valve to 25%, 50%,
75%, and 100% open.
06.For each control valve position, measure the flow rate by either collecting a
suitable volume of water (a minimum of 10 liters) in the measuring tank, or
by using the Rota meter.
07.Increase the speed until the pump is operating at 70 rev/sec and 80 rev/sec,
and repeat steps (3) to (6) for each speed.

SCOMMENTS:
In series centrifugation of the pumps, that gives much head but the is a
discharge to use it that if there is any problem in one or more pumps the
apparatus becomes worthless.
