    I have been working for more than 10 years as rotating engineer in water treatment plant and offshore oil n gas industry where the pump require either ANSI or API 610 type. But for me, this uncle has produced one of the best explanation in youtube and easy to be understood by our normal people in the world

    I am utterly amazed watching these videos...i am a 50 year old guy who was never good in math and science but have an overabundance of curiosity about how things work. I feel lucky to live in a time where i can look anything up on youtube and get some undestanding about how the physical world works around me. Also, i had no idea how involved pumps were...meaning the engineering behind the pump.

    The equation provided to calculate delta z based on NPSH is for the case that the water level at the supply reservoir is below the water level at the demand reservoir. So, for the case which is shown in the video, the water level at the downstream reservoir should be lower than that the water level at point 1 and for this case: delta z (minimum water level difference between two reservoirs)= (Pa-Pv)/gamma - NPSH (for available pump) -HL (all head losses) as shown in the video. It is not surprising that if the difference in water levels reduced to values less than delta Z, cavitation is expected to take place. For the other case if the water level at the demand or downstream reservoir is greater than the water level at supply reservoir (most cases), delta Z (Max different in water levels)= NPSH (of the available pump)- (Pa-Pv)/gamma +HL (all head losses) and in this case if the water level at supply reservoir or the well is dropped to lower depth, than the difference in the water levels increased to values more than computed delta Z and we expect cavitation will take place in this situation.

    this is great info, I'm studying for my next wastewater certification and notice a few differences. Total dynamic head and Head in general is always referd to as the verticle distance the water has to be pumed (measured in feet). But it sounds like head is just any force acting to restrict flow?
    Also Cavitaion is described only happening at the impeller near the inlet or outlet and not in the pipe itself. this is due to the pressure difference across the impeller. the bubbles are formed by rapid pressure loss and on implotion they take part of the impeller with them and they sound like BBs in the pump.
    again, great video. i enjoyed getting away from the text book for a bit.

How would the analysis change, if the pump was below and the water tank was above? I would think the ABS | Patm -Pv | may be a more general solution to avoid an answer with a -Z value.

    could anyone tell me how pump curve is determined at a certain speed however the input power = ( torque x angular velocity).
    so, to get more discharge we need more input power by increasing velocity
    and then by applying the efficiency formula (output power / input power) we can draw an efficiency curve.
    so, how this curve could be at a certain velocity?

    • @dawidpietrucha5333
      @dawidpietrucha5333 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      No, because NPSH changes with the change of Q. The higher is the flow rate, the higher is the pressure drop at the suction side. Therefore it's rather used to get to know the maximum flow rate available.
      Also the temperature plays the key role, since it influences the vapor pressure.

  • @brendangolledge8312
    @brendangolledge8312 ปีที่แล้ว

    Is there a theoretical derivation for the shape of a pump curve?
    I guessed maybe a centrifugal pump imparts constant energy per unit mass to whatever fluid passes through it. Then you'd get E = constant (for any given fluid density) = P + (1/2)dv^2 (d is density), or h = E/(dg) - Q^2/(2gA^2). This has the shape of an upside down parabola (right basic shape), but when I try to compare it to real pump curves, the real curves turn downwards something on the order of 100 times faster than my theoretical model. Do you know why this might be? Am I making some unit conversion error, or is the whole thought process just wrong?
    If the real pump curves turned down something like 10-50% faster than the theoretical one, I'd be happy, because I guess the pump doesn't conserve energy perfectly and it doesn't have the same efficiency at all operating ranges. But getting a result 10,000% different than the theory is unsatisfying.

  • @moazsalem3488

    I have a question,
    If a centrifugal pump flow limit is from 60 LPM to 535 LPM at 3500 rpm, does the low flow limit of 60 LPM changes with running the pump at lower rpm? Does this limit changes goes down when we run the pump at lower rpm?

      Surely changing the flow rate from 60 LPM to 535 LPM would mean a change of impeller, assuming constant rpm.
      If you have a 60 LPM impeller, on a 3500 rpm motor, and you reduce the speed of the motor - the flow rate will reduce.

    on NPSH example problem, Patm defined by value of 101000 kPa. Should it be valued 101 kPa if Pv also in kPa? CMIIW

      Yes you're right. He denoted it with the coma. However the value of Pv at 15C according to my steam table is equal to 1,7 kPa.

      @@dawidpietrucha5333 Same, from Table A.5 in the class textbook, interpolating you'd get 1.782 kPa for vapor pressure.
