  1. Pumps CM4120 D. Caspary February, 2004

  2. Outline • Intro to Pumping • Classifications of pumps • Positive Displacement Pump – Examples and Applications • Centrifugal Pumps – Examples and Applications • Pump Curves

  3. History of Pumps • First pumps were driven by water wheels or animal powered • Water was lifted w/ paddles and dumped at a higher elevation • Over 2200 years ago in Greece, Persia, the Orient , some still in use today • Electric motor is most common machine in use today, the pump is second most common • Agriculture  Automobile  Construction  Chemical Manufacturing  Household  Hydraulic Systems  Submarines  Space Station  Zeeland to Zimbabwe

  4. Pump Applications Used to increase the potential and/or kinetic energy state of a fluid • Liquid – water, chemical, fuels, coolants, refrigerants, hydraulic fluids, boiler feed, condensate return, etc. • Vapor/gas – foams, air, other gases • Slurries – concrete, quarry slurries, mud for drilling, precipitates, sewage, pulp stock, etc.

  5. Two Primary Classifications of Pumps • Dynamic (or Centrifugal) – Use a spinning impeller to induce centrifugal forces, increasing pressure at the discharge side of the housing. • Positive Displacement – Transfers a fixed volume of fluid thru the pump housing with each cycle of operation.

  6. Classifications of Pumps Overwhelming majority of all pumps are some type of Centrifugal Pump. • Lower initial cost • Reduced maintenance costs Positive Displacement Pumps are widely used but for specific applications.

  7. Comparison betweenPositive Displacement and Centrifugal Pumps

  8. Head vs. Flow Comparison between Positive Displacement and Centrifugal Pumps

  9. Effect of Increasing Viscosity on Flow for Positive Displacement and Centrifugal Pumps

  10. Comparison of Efficiency vs. Head between Positive Displacement and Centrifugal Pumps

  11. Positive Displacement Pump “Family Tree”

  12. Types of PD Pumps – Gear Pumps • External Gear Pump • High speed • Quiet operation • Fuel, lubricants, hydraulic fluid power systems, metering • No solids • Internal Gear Pump • Non-pulsating discharge pressure • Low NPSHR • Low to moderate speed • High viscosity fluids

  13. Other Common Types of PD Pumps • Lobe Pump • No metal to metal contact • Can handle solids without damaging them • Applications are found in food processing, pharmaceutical, personal care, etc. • Diaphragm Pump

  15. How a Centrifugal Pump Works • Pump housing must be primed • Impeller rotates, imparting an outward velocity to the fluid – kinetic energy • Fluid velocity reaches maximum at the outside diameter of the impeller • Fluid enters the volute where it is channeled to the discharge • Resistance to flow, starting at the volute, reduces velocity creating pressure energy • Vapor pressure of fluid causes new fluid to be drawn into the eye of the impeller

  21. Types of Impellers • Closed vane • Open vane • Open vane, cut impeller

  22. Pump Curve for a Goulds Model HSC centrifugal pump at 3500 rpm When selecting new pump or changing capacity of existing pumps: • Capacity for 6 impeller sizes • NPSHR • Req’d horsepower • Efficiency

  23. Pumping Affinity Laws Used for estimating pump performance when changing impeller size or RPM • Q1/Q2=N1/N2 • H1/H2=(N1/N2)2 • P1/P2=(N1/N2)3

  24. Pump EfficiencyOverall Efficiency PP, Pump Input power, BHP PW, Pump Output Power PMOT, Driver Input Power

  25. Pump Maintenance • Seals • Shaft packing vs. mechanical seals • Monitor for leaks • Bearings • Overhung vs. double support • Monitor vibration • Wetted parts corrosion • Cavitation • monitor suction-side pressure • listen for rattling
