SUCTION AND DISCHARGE
All pumps move fluid(water, oil, molten metal,
sludge) from one place to another by:
 Pushing
 Pulling
 Throwing
 Squeezing or some combination of all of these

Pumps develop no energy of their own.
 They transform energy from some external
source to potential and kinetic energy.
 We measure the input source of power in
horsepower (HP)

KINETIC PUMP
The major types of pumps are




kinetic(Centrifugal),
positive displacement, and
eductors:
07:34

Kinetic pump (centrifugal)
which uses a spinning rotor (impeller or propeller) to
increase kinetic energy or velocity head and pressure of
the pumped fluid and pressure of the pumped liquid.
 Centrifugal pumps may be operated with the discharge
closed; however, the friction of the fluid churning within
the casing will generate heat.




It is not a good idea to operate for long periods of time with the
discharge closed.
Systems, like boiler feedwater systems, which have regulators
that may limit or stop flow for short periods of time, will have
recirculation lines.
A recirculation line connects the pump discharge to the suction
source, and should open when the discharge flow decreases.
14
TYPES OF CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS
Volute Pump
In the volute pump, which is also the pump casing,
the impeller discharges into a volute, which is a
gradually widening spiral channel in the pump
casing.
 The volute converts the liquid velocity created by the
impeller to pressure.

07:34

15
TYPES OF CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS
Diffuser Pump
In the diffuser pump the liquid leaving the impeller
is first slowed by the stationary diffuser ring that
surrounds the impeller.
 The diffuser consists of gradually widening passages
through which the liquid dumps into the volute of the
pump.
 Since both the diffuser and the volute reduce the
velocity of the liquid, there is almost a complete
conversion of the kinetic energy (velocity head) to
potential energy (pressure)

07:34

16
IMPELLERS
The impellers spin at a high rate of speed and
must be carefully machined and balance to avoid
vibration.
07:34

Closed impellers have side walls or shrouds on both
sides of the vanes.
 A semi-closed impeller has a wall on one side of the
vanes; the other side is open
 An open impeller has no side walls, the vanes are
attached directly to the hub.

Hub- a solid center area that has a hole through it.
 The pump shaft extends through the hub

17
EYE OF THE IMPELLER
The eye is the area the liquid enters into the
impeller.
07:34

Liquid is led to the eye through internal passages in
the pump casing
 An impeller can have a single suction eye, or it can
have two suction eyes; one on each side of the
impeller.

A single eye impeller creates thrust axially in a direction
opposite of the liquid entering the eye.
 In the double suction impeller the thrust is counter acted
 Water enters the eye in an axial direction, and leaves the
impeller in a radial direction.

18
MULTY STAGE, SHAFT SEAL &
High pressures, centrifugal pumps can have
multiple impellers mounted on one shaft.


07:34

The discharge from the first stage enters the second
stage impeller eye.
The area where the shaft passes through the
casing must be sealed.



Packing or with mechanical seals.
A packed pump will have a lantern ring or seal cage
installed.
The seal cage is a place where discharge pressure liquid
can be introduced into the stuffing box to lubricate, seal
and cool the packing.
19
CAPACITY
capacity is expressed as volumetric
flow rate & discharge pressure

07:34
 Pump
The capacity of a centrifugal pump can be
increased by doing one of two things
Increase the speed of the pump
 Increase the size of the impeller

POSITIVE DISPLACEMENT
PUMP

07:34
A movable element forces liquid through the
pumps casing.
 They never stop pushing the liquids.
 All positive displacement pumps must have a
protection device (relief valves) on the
discharge end, and should never be operated
with the discharge closed.

There are several types of positive displacement
pumps:
Gear
 Lobe
 Vane
 Screw

RECIPROCATING PUMPS
A positive displacement pump
Piston reciprocates back and forth inside a cylinder.
 The liquid piston is driven by power piston.


Classed as:

Single-acting or double-acting.


Simplex or duplex.


A simplex pump has only single pumping cylinder and a duplex
pump has two.
High or low pressure.


A single acting pump pumps only on one side of the liquid
piston; whereas a double acting pumps on both sides. The
pump shown above is a double acting pump.
When the power piston is larger than the liquid piston, the
pump is high pressure.
Vertical or Horizontal
23
RECIPROCATING PUMP
07:34
A reciprocating pump moves
water or other liquid by a
plunger or piston that
reciprocates (travel back and
forth) inside a cylinder.
 Reciprocating pumps are
positive-displacement pumps;
each stroke displaces a definite
quantity of liquid, regardless of
the resistance against which the
pump is operating.

The power pistons are 8” in diameter.
The liquid pistons are 6” in diameter,
The pump has a 12 in stroke.
Formulas for calculating the capacity and discharge
pressure of a reciprocating pump is
PLAN(power end) = PLAN(pump end)
P = Inlet pressure on the power piston and the discharge
pressure on the discharge end
 L = length of the pump stroke.
 A = the areas of the cylinders, power end, and pump end.
 N = number of strokes per min.

RECIPROCATING PUMPS
can be determined with the
formula:
07:34
 Capacity
Capacity= LAN / （321 in3 per gal） = GPM
The liquid end piston area is used to determine the
pump capacity
 Pump discharge pressure can be determined with
this formula:

P(Liquid)= P(power) × A(power)/ A(Liquid)
27
PUMP TERMS
Pump capacity
The capacity of a pump is the amount of liquid the
pump can handle in a given period of time.
 It is usually expressed in GPM delivered at a specific
pressure.
 What happens to the pump capacity as the viscosity
of the fluid increases? Increase or decrease?

07:34

28
PUMP TERMS
Total pump head
 Head is the vertical
distance between the two
liquid levels in a pumping
system.
 Total pump head is the
sum of the suction lift and
the discharge head.
 The pump may be
installed at, above, or
below the surface of the
source supply.


When the pump is below the
suction liquid level, it has a
static suction pressure.
When it is above, it has a static
suction lift.
07:34

29
PUMP TERMS
Total pump head
 The vertical distance from
the centerline of the pump
to the liquid level on the
discharge is known as the
static discharge head.
 Friction head- In addition to
the head pressures, there is
always a friction loss
associated with the system.
 The energy required to
overcome this loss
manifests itself as thermal
energy, which remains in
the liquid.
07:34

PUMP TERMS


Velocity head
The head pressure required to impart velocity to a fluid.
2
 Formula Hv = V /2g Hv is the velocity head in feet

 Net
Positive Suction Head (NPSH)
It is the head necessary needed to overcome the
friction and flow losses in a pump’s suction.
 The minimum suction head will be supplied by the
pump manufacturer.
 If a pump is operated below the NPSH, cavitation can
occur.

31
CAVITATION

Cavitation is the formation and subsequent collapse of
vapor-filled cavities or bubbles in the pumped liquid.
Cavitation creates noise and vibration in a pump, and if
it is allowed to continue it will cause pitting on the
internal metal surfaces of the pump.
07:34

32
PUMP TERMS
power required to drive a pump is a
function of the pump capacity and the total
head against which the pump operates.
Measured in HP, how much horse power is
necessary to deliver the required liquid
against the pumping head.
 Bernoulli’s Theorem- A form of the general
energy equation.
07:34
 The
Energy in = energy out
 There is not a direct correlation between in and out
energy because of efficiency
