Piping System Calculations:
Static suction head (hs.s): The static suction
head is the difference in elevation between the
wet well liquid level and the datum elevation of
the pump impeller. If the wet well liquid level is
below the pump datum, so hs is negative.

Static discharge head (hs.d): The static


discharge head is the difference in elevation
between the discharge liquid level and the pump
datum elevation.

Total static head (Hst): The total static head is


the difference in elevation between the water
level in the wet well and the water level at
discharge (hd -hs).
Friction head loss (hfs, hfd): This is the head
of fluid that must be supplied to overcome the
frictional loss in the pipe.

Velocity head (v2/2g): The velocity head is


the kinetic energy in the liquid being pumped at
a point in the system.

Total energy line (T.E.L.): Shows the energy


distribution along the piping system.

Hydraulic gradient line ( H.G.L.): Shows the


pressure distribution along he piping system.
Manometric suction head (Hm.s):
The suction gauge reading is expressed in meters
measured at the suction nozzle of the pump and
referenced to the pump datum elevation.

Manometric discharge head (Hm.d,): The discharge


gauge reading is expressed in meters measured at the
discharge nozzle of the pump and referenced to the
centerline of the pump impeller. It is also the distance to
the hydraulic grade line and pressure reference.

Manometric head (Hm): This is the increase of


pressure head, expressed in meters generated
by the pump (Hm.d-Hm.s).
Hm.s = Hs.s hls - vs2/2g

Hm.d = Hs.d +hld


Hm = Hm.d - Hm.s
Hm = (Hs.d +hld ) ( Hs.s hls - vs2/2g )

Hm = (Hs.d - Hs.s ) + (hld + hls ) + vs2/2g

Hm = Hs.t + hlt + vs2/2g


Piping system curve:
Hm = Hs.t + hlt + vs2/2g
Hm = Hs.t + KQ2
Power
Output Power
The power output of a pump is the energy delivered by the pump to
the fluid.

In SI units, P = g Q Hm/c

Where P is the water power in kW,


g is the specific weight of the fluid in N/m3,
Q is the flowrate in m3/s,
Hm is the total dynamic head in m,
C is the unit constant ( 1000 )
Input Power
Pump performance is measured in terms of the flow
rate that a pump can discharge against a given head at
a given efficiency.

The pump capacity depends on the design, and


design information of the pump manufacturer in a
series of curves for a given pump.

Pump efficiency, , is the ratio of the useful power


output (water kilowatts [kW] or water horsepower
[hp]) to the power input to the pump shaft.

The brake power (bkW) or the shaft power that


must be supplied by the drive is,

Psh= g QHm/C
Pump efficiency
Pump efficiency is defined as the ratio between the
output power and input power which is usually range
from 20 to 85%.

Pump efficiency increases with the size of the


pump.

Energy losses in a pump are: Volumetric,


Mechanical, and
Hydraulic
Volumetric losses are those of leakage
through the small clearances between
wearing rings in the pump casing and the
rotating element.

Mechanical losses are caused by mechanical


friction in the stuffing boxes and bearings,
by internal disc friction, and by fluid shear.

Frictional and eddy losses within the flow


passages account for the hydraulic losses.

be shown graphically on characteristic
curves.

( Q ).
Understanding the Pipe system curve

Importance of Pipe system curve

Every pump manufacturer would like to recommend


the perfect pump for any application.

To do this he would like the contracting company to


provide him with an accurate system curve that
would describe the capacity and head needed for
various operating conditions.

Once he has the system curve, he can plot his pump


curves on top of the system curve and hopefully
select something that will come close to the line needs.
Without this system curve, neither one of
them have much of a chance of coming up with
the right pump.

To create a system curve we plot the desired


capacities against the required head over the
total operating range of the pump.
VARIANTS IN PUMPING SYSTEMS
In practice, conditions in a system vary as a result of either
controllable or uncontrollable changes.

Examples of either controllable or uncontrollable system


changes in:

Valve opening in the pump discharge or bypass line,

Suction or discharge liquid level,

Pressures at these levels,

Aging of pipes,

Process, Number of pumps pumping into


common header, Size, length, or number of pipes
These changes in system conditions:
Alter the shape of the system-head
curve and, in turn, Affect pump flow.
Variable Static Head

In a system where a pump is taking


suction from one reservoir and filling
another, the capacity of a centrifugal
pump will decrease with an increase in
static head.
If it is desired to maintain a constant
pump flow for different static head
conditions, the pump speed can be
varied to adjust for an increase or
decrease in the total system head.
Variable System Resistance
A valve or valves in the discharge line of a centrifugal pump alter the
variable frictional head portion of the total system-head curve and
consequently the pump flow.

For example, the use of a discharge valve to change the system head for
the purpose of varying pump flow during a shop performance test.

The maximum flow is obtained with a completely open valve, and the
only resistance to flow is the friction in the piping, fittings, and flow meter.

A closed valve results in:


# The pumps operating at shutoff conditions and Produces
maximum head.

# Any flow between maximum and shutoff can be


obtained by proper adjustment of the valve opening.
It is important to select a pump that will
have Its best efficiency within the
operating range of the system

And preferably at the condition at


which the pump will operate most
often.
Cavitation
When the pressure of the liquid is reduced to a value
equal to or below its vapor pressure the liquid begins
to boil and small vapor bubbles or pockets begin to
form.

As these vapor bubbles move along the impeller vanes to


a higher pressure area above the vapor pressure, they
rapidly collapse.

The collapse is so rapid that it may be heard as a


noise, as if you were pumping gravel.
In high suction energy pumps, the collapses are
generally high enough to cause pockets of fatigue
failure on the impeller vane surfaces. This action may
be progressive, and under severe (very high suction
energy), conditions can cause serious pitting damage
to the impeller.

The accompanying noise is the easiest way to recognize


cavitation.

Excessive cavitation results in reduced capacity due to


the vapor present.

In addition, the head may be reduced and/or be


unstable and the power consumption also affected.
Vibration and mechanical damage
such as bearing failure can also occur
because of operating in excessive
cavitation.
Cavitation causes :
1. Drop in Q
2. Drop in Hm
3. Drop in eff.
4. power consumption may be affected.
5. Pitting
6. Noise
7. Vibrations

Net Positive Suction Head
( NPSH )
Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) NPSH
Available is a function of the system in which
the pump operates.

High suction energy pumps Require an


additional NPSH margin, above the NPSH
Required.
NPSHA > NPSHR + ( 1.2m to 2.5m )
Affinity Laws
The affinity laws express the mathematical relationship between
the several variables involved in pump performance.

They apply to all types of centrifugal and axial flow pumps.


## They are as follows:

1- With impeller diameter D held constant


2- with rotational speed N held constant

Q = Capacity, Cubic Meter Per Second

The Volute Casing Pump


This pump derives its name from the spiral-shaped casing surrounding the
impeller.

This casing section collects the liquid discharged by the impeller and converts
velocity energy to pressure energy.

A centrifugal pump volute increases in area from its initial point until it
encompasses the full 360 around the impeller and then flares out to the final
discharge opening.

In propeller and other pumps in which axial-flow impellers are used, it is not
practical to use a volute casing; instead, the impeller is enclosed in a pipe-like
casing.
A pump in which the head is developed by
a single impeller is called a single-
stage pump.
Often the total head to be developed
requires the use of two or more
impellers operating in series,or multi-
stage, each taking its suction from the
discharge of the preceding impeller.

AXIAL THRUST

Axial Thrust in Single-Stage Pumps with Closed


Impellers

The pressures generated by a centrifugal pump exert


forces on both stationary and rotating parts.

Axial hydraulic thrust on an impeller is the sum of


the unbalanced forces acting in the axial
direction.

As reliable large-capacity thrust bearings are now


readily available, axial thrust in single-stage pumps
remains a problem only in larger units.

MECHANICAL SEALS
The conventional stuffing box design and
composition packing are impractical to use for sealing
a rotating shaft for many conditions of service.

In the ordinary stuffing box, the sealing between


the moving shaft or shaft sleeve and the stationary
portion of the box is accomplished by means of rings
of packing forced between the two surfaces and held
tightly in place by a stuffing box gland.

The leakage around the shaft is controlled merely by


tightening up or loosening the gland studs.
The actual sealing surfaces consist of the axial
rotating surfaces of the shaft or shaft sleeve and the
stationary packing.

Attempts to reduce or eliminate all leakage from a


conventional stuffing box increase the gland
pressure.

The packing, being semi-plastic, forms more closely


to the shaft and tends to cut down the leakage.

After a certain point, however, the leakage


continues no matter how tightly the gland studs are
brought up.
The frictional horsepower increases rapidly
at this point, the heat generated cannot be
properly dissipated, and the stuffing box fails to
function.

Even before this condition is reached, the shaft


sleeves may be severely worn and scored,
so that it becomes impossible to pack the
stuffing box satisfactorily.

These undesirable characteristics of using


packing as the sealing medium between
rotating surfaces if the leakage is to be held to
an absolute minimum under severe pressure
The condition, in turn, automatically eliminates
use of the axial surfaces as the sealing
surfaces, for a non-plastic packing is the only
material that can always be made to form about
the shaft and compensate for the wear.

Another factor that makes stuffing boxes


unsatisfactory for certain applications is the
relatively small lubricating value of many
liquids frequently handled by centrifugal pumps,
such as propane or butane.
These liquids actually dissolve the
lubricants normally used to impregnate the
packing.

Seal oil must therefore be introduced into the


lantern gland or a packed box to lubricate
the packing and give it reasonable life.

With these facts in mind, designers have


attempted to produce an entirely different type
of seal with wearing surfaces other than
the axial surfaces of the shaft and packing.
The mechanical seal, is a later development
than regular stuffing boxes but has found
general acceptance in those pumping
applications in which the shortcomings of
packed stuffing boxes have proved excessive.

Fields in which the packed boxes gave good


service, however, have shown little tendency
to replace them with mechanical seals.

The most common method of sealing


centrifugal pumps today uses the mechanical
seal (Fig.).
The three basic parts of a mechanical seal are as
follows:

Primary seal components:


These consist of an axially adjustable sealing ring
and an axially fixed mating ring against which it slides,
forming a seal. Depending on the seal
configuration, either the sealing or the mating ring
may be the rotating or stationary element.

Secondary seals:
These consist of O-rings or other suitable gasket
materials.

Hardware:
This consists mainly of the spring(s) and a retainer,
normally made of a series 300 stainless steel.
