Brainstorming
The unrelated words are to be removed by explaining why they are not
relevant. After removing the irrelevant words, the definition is tried from the
remaining words on the board.
Pumps
• Reciprocating pump
-Displacement by reciprocation of piston plunger
Casing
--It is an air tight Passage.
1. Volute Casing
Impeller
-Rotating part of pump is called impeller
Working Principle:
After explaining the components of centrifugal pump, the
students can understand the working principle quickly. The
following two figures are used for explaining the working
principle.
The process liquid enters the suction nozzle and then into eye
(center) of a revolving device known as an impeller. When the impeller
rotates, it spins the liquid sitting in the cavities between the vanes
outward and provides centrifugal acceleration. As liquid leaves the eye of
the impeller a low-pressure area is created causing more liquid to flow
toward the inlet. Because the impeller blades are curved, the fluid is
pushed in a tangential and radial direction by the centrifugal force. This
force acting inside the pump s the same one that keeps water inside a
bucket that is rotating at the end of a string.
Basic definitions:
Velocity triangle
The derivation of work done by the pump is explained with the
help of velocity triangle. The various components of velocities
should be explained.
At Inlet:
Fluid enters at absolute velocity v1 through a cylindrical surface of radius r1 at an angle α.
At Outlet:
Fluid exits at absolute velocity v2 through a cylindrical surface of radius r2 at an angle α 2 .
Work done per second by the impeller on the fluid = rate of energy transfer
Euler’s Equation
Multistage Pumps
Having discussed the working of centrifugal pump, let us now
discuss the multi staging of centrifugal pumps to handle critical
situations where high head or discharge being required. The
images will help the students self explanatory.
Pumps in Parallel
- The pumps can
be arranged parallel where
the requirement of discharge is more.
Priming
The process of filling the suction pipe, casing and
the portion of delivery pipe up to delivery valve with
the fluid is known as priming.
Cavitation
Very destructive phenomena that occur when the
pressure of the fluid drops below vaporization point. The result
is the formation of tiny bubbles that collapses when pressure
increase on the impeller. Those implosions work as small
“explosions” on the impeller that will destroy it.
Conclusion:
• Define a pump
• Classify Pumps
• Describe the working principle.
• Compare pumps in parallel and Series.
• Understand priming and Cavitations.
• List the Applications.
