the report insert and represent the principal and its execution of centrifugal pump. centrifugal pump are consumed to transmit fluid by the regeneration or modification of rotational Kinetic strength to the hydrodynamic strength of the liquid to transfer on its common uses as a discharge petroleum and acting actinic throbbing a centrifugal .rooter is commonly used to apply as vacuum cleaner. If the mechanical vitality is reformed into pressure vitality by mean on the liquid the pneumatic machine is called "centrifugal pump". It Act on the leading of vortex flow the centrifugal pump act as contradiction of an inner radial run on reaction turbine. That means and the part of pump are impeller case absorption .pipe with a foot valve and a cylinder.

Experimental Investigation of Centrifugal Pump Characteristics

International Journal of Advanced Natural Sciences and Engineering Researches

The pumps are divided into two main groups as positive displacement namely volumetric pumps and dynamic i.e. centrifugal pumps. Volumetric pumps are generally used to transport hydraulic oils, while centrifugal pumps are used to transport clean or dirty water. Pumps are the tools that are used to move liquid fluids from one place to another in many areas like as cars, industry, construction sites, agriculture, and homes. Therefore, determination of the hydraulic pump’s characteristics under various working conditions, including manometric head, overall efficiency, specific speed, and net positive suction head, is crucial for development, operational limitations, and durability. Experimental investigation is a more realistic method, although it is possible to determine the hydraulic pump characteristics by means of mathematical methods. Therefore, an experimental investigation is performed for the determination of the centrifugal pump characteristics in this study by using an experim...

Centrifugal pump

A centrifugal pump is a rotodynamic pump that uses a rotating impeller to increase the velocity of a fluid. Centrifugal pumps are commonly used to move liquids through a piping system. The fluid enters the pump impeller along or near to the rotating axis and is accelerated by the impeller, flowing radially outward into a diffuser or volute chamber, from where it exits into the downstream piping system. Centrifugal pumps are used for large discharge through smaller heads.

Parameters Affecting Efficiency of Centrifugal Pump - A Review

International Journal of Scientific Research in Science and Technology, 2021

The pump is used as one of the most significant components in chemical industry so without its existence process may not be completed, because for any fluid to flow, initial driving force is required and it is fulfilled by the pump by consuming electrical energy and converting it to pressure energy. So, the selection of pump is very important in every field of section, depending on the property of process fluid. The Centrifugal pump is most demanding nowadays because it has simple design, less maintenance, can handle large quantities of fluids, and provides very high flow rates. The Centrifugal pump has mainly two components rotating components and stationary components. Shaft and impeller (open, semi-enclosed, and fully-enclosed) comes under the category of rotating components and casing (Volute, Vortex, and circular) comes under stationary components. Various parameters of process fluid like liquid viscosity, temperature, specific gravity, vapor pressure, concentration, shear sensitive and abrasive or non-abrasive, MOC, pump environment, pressure, flow rate, etc. are calculated to gain the desired efficiency and prevent a problem like cavitation if not properly handled. In this paper, a single-stage centrifugal pump is reviewed and studied how to increase performance and efficiency of centrifugal pump.

Experimental Investigation of Enhancement in Efficiency of Centrifugal Pump by Reduction in Cavitation of Pump

International Journal of Engineering Applied Sciences and Technology

Cavitation phenomenon is basically a process formation of bubbles of a flowing liquid in a region where the pressure of the liquid falls below its vapour pressure and it is the most challenging fluid flow abnormalities leading to detrimental effects on both the centrifugal pump discharge characteristics as well as physical characteristics. In this low pressure zones are the first victims of cavitation. Due to cavitation pitting of impeller occurs and wear of internal walls of pumps occurs due to which there is creation of vibrations and noize are there. Due to this there is bad performance of centrifugal pump is there. Firstly, description of the centrifugal pump with its various parts are described after that pump characteristics and its important parameters are presented and discussed. Passive discharge (flow rate) control methods are utilized for improvement of flow rate and mechanical and volumetric and overall efficiency of the pump. Mechanical engineers is considering an impor...

A Technical Review on Analysis of Centrifugal Pump

Centrifugal pumps are grossly used in chemical industries, oil refineries, sewage disposal systems, mines, food processing industries, power plants for the transportation of fluids. Hence it is required to find the geometric parameters and working conditions to achieve maximum head and efficiency without increasing the manufacturing cost. This paper evince the increasing use of computational fluid dynamics for the analysis of centrifugal pump, as there are various parameters which affect the performance of centrifugal pump it is necessary to analyze all the forces which are act on pump impeller such as drag and friction forces. CFD analysis is very useful to determine the amount of drag force acting on pump impeller when working with different fluids such as Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids, as the amount of drag force increase than power requirement also increase results in poor performance. Therefore it is necessary to carry out CFD analysis on centrifugal pump maintain its performance in any condition.

Centrifugal Pump 1

It is at end of the suction pipe and is submerged (push or go underwater) on the water below the surface of the water. It has the casting of strainers, which prevents the floating objects from entering into the suction pipe. The foot valve is a non-returnable valve permitting water to move in one direction only. SUCTION PIPE: It is pipe rising from the sump to the centrifugal pump. DELIVERY PIPE: It is a pipe fitted with a regulating valve. IMPELLER: It is the heart of the centrifugal pump which helps to increase the velocity of water thus decreasing the pressure at Centre of pump, resulting rising up of water through suction pipe.
