understand the machine behavior to deliver such fluids. 3D numerical flow simulation and analysis for different viscous fluids at different rotational speeds of a centrifugal impeller have been reported in this paper. Reynolds-averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) equations were solved and the performance analysis was made. Standard two equation k-ε model was used for the turbulence closure of steady incompressible flow. An inlet recirculation and reverse flow in impeller passage was observed at low impeller speeds. It was also found that the higher viscosity fluids have higher recirculation which hinders the impeller performance.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"International Journal of Fluid Machinery and Systems","attachmentId":89277679,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/84157367/International_Journal_of_Fluid_Machinery_and_Systems","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/84157367/International_Journal_of_Fluid_Machinery_and_Systems"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="5" data-entity-id="32357940" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/32357940/Centrifugal_Pumps_HBK_and_Working_Guide_to_Pump_and_Pumping_Stations_Calculations_and_Simulations_2009_by_E_S_Menon_Book_review_">Centrifugal Pumps HBK & "Working Guide to Pump and Pumping Stations: Calculations and Simulations, 2009," by E.

It provides an introduction to the basic theory of pumps and how pumps are applied to practical situations using examples of simulations, without extensive mathematical analysis. Basic concepts Types of pumps used in the industry; the properties of liquids; the performance curve; and the Bernoullis equation. It then looks at the factors that affect pump performance and the various methods of calculating pressure loss in piping systems. This is followed by discussions of pump system head curves; applications and economics of centrifugal pumps and pipeline systems; and pump simulation using the software PUMPCALC. In most cases, the theory is explained and followed by solved example problems in both U.S. Customary System (English) and SI (metric) units. Additional practice problems are provided in each chapter as further exercise. This book was designed to be a working guide for engineers and technicians dealing with centrifugal pumps in the water, petroleum, oil, chemical, and process industries. _______________________________________________________ Extra Pump Manufacturer selection and application data needed, Vine Customer Review December 2010, by Didaskalex Pumps & Piping Systems Pump performance is intrinsic to the system it serves and the fluid handled. Selecting pumps for a specific service starts with the pump class: positive displacement, or centrifugal, and the suitable pump type to handle system's fluid characteristics. The designer calculates the pump's displacement rate, delivery pressure, and system piping sizing and configuration. Optimal design of the system has to consider best set of fluid properties for overall system. Considering heating of a viscous fluid for an appreciable reduction of pump HP, by installing a heater can reduce total cost and enhance operating economics. Reducing total energy consumption, Ca. 90 percent of the total cost of pump operation is a major design goal. System operation efficiency, and economics, and its performance for the specific application, verifies the type of pump selected, for the range of system operating conditions. By carefully tailoring design specifications to service conditions, designers can optimize pump selection to minimize head losses while delivering the volumetric rate at corresponding system pressure. Manufacturer Selection Map (MSM) ANSI/ HI (Hydraulic Institute, Pump Standards authority) provides a guide to informed decisions for engineers to specify/ select pumps, or design Pumping Systems and optimize their performance. A pump design calculation is the key to a selection from an available range of manufacturer pumps, whose performance curves are available to designers. Without MSM, pump hydraulic design cannot materialize into an actual selected pump. Based on the system diagrams, design formulae and H-Q curves available at this working guide, the 'reader' can proceed to MSM. In practice available pump selection is defined by a family of characteristic curves based on pump's actual tests results. Application analysis (Ch. 8), and selection considerations supplement the pump hydraulic calculations. Manufacturers publish Pump performance maps showing differential head and capacity ranges, for a family of centrifugal pumps to help the selection. Further, for a specific pump the performance of different available impeller size, and the corresponding NPSH required, pump efficiency and horsepower. Pump Working Guide The author(s) limited their working guide to pump/ system hydraulic design calculations and a brief simulation, limited to centrifugal pumps only. Although the book delivered what is promised, I believe from experience, that inclusion of sample manufacturers selection maps helps better clarification of practical centrifugal pump performance for different impeller sizes and parallel/ series applications. Pump auxiliaries as vortex breakers, inlet filters, inlet/outlet valve sizing, discharge pressure control and methods to suppress cavitation and vibration needed to be elaborated. _______________________________________________________ Table of Contents 1 Introduction 2 Pump Performance 3 Liquid Properties versus Pump Performance 4 Pressure Loss through Piping Systems 5 System Head Curves 6 Pump Performance at Different Impeller Sizes and Speeds 7 NPSH and Pump Cavitation 8 Pump Applications and Economics 9 Pump Simulation Using PUMPCALC Software Appendices A Summary of Formulas B Units and Conversion Factors C Properties of Water — USCS Units D Properties of Common Liquids E Properties of Circular Pipes — USCS Units F Properties of Circular Pipes — SI Units G Head Loss in Water Pipes — USCS Units H Darcy Friction Factors I Least Squares Method References Index</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Centrifugal Pumps HBK \u0026 \"Working Guide to Pump and Pumping Stations: Calculations and Simulations, 2009,\" by E.

A Microsoft Excel TM computer program for carrying out and easing the sizing calculations is described.</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"in Centrifugal Pump Selection","attachmentId":82084542,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/73643416/in_Centrifugal_Pump_Selection","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/73643416/in_Centrifugal_Pump_Selection"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="7" data-entity-id="69884578" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/69884578/Performance_prediction_of_Centrifugal_Pumps_with_variations_of_blade_number">Performance prediction of Centrifugal Pumps with variations of blade number</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="33905656" href="https://independent.academia.edu/BishopDebbarma">Bishop Debbarma</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">2013</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">Centrifugal pumps are used extensively for hydraulic transportation of liquids over short to medium distance through pipelines where the requirements of head and discharge are moderate. At present, the influence of blade number on inner flow field and the characteristics of centrifugal pump have not been understood completely. The use of numerical analysis tools allow us to obtain data in inaccessible positions for the experimentations. In this paper, a two dimensional numerical study of steady, static pressure distribution and incompressible flow characteristics inside the passage with different numbers of blades of centrifugal pump impeller has been carried out. The investigation focuses mainly on the efficiency of the pump. Centrifugal pumps with impeller blades 5, 6 and 7 have been modeled and its efficiency at 3000 rpm is evaluated by FLUENT 6.3 software. The numerical analysis displays that with the increase of blade number, the head and static pressure of the model increases,...</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Performance prediction of Centrifugal Pumps with variations of blade number","attachmentId":79810307,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/69884578/Performance_prediction_of_Centrifugal_Pumps_with_variations_of_blade_number","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/69884578/Performance_prediction_of_Centrifugal_Pumps_with_variations_of_blade_number"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="8" data-entity-id="62709109" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/62709109/Centrifugal_Pump_Performance_Under_Stable_and_Unstable_Oil_Water_Emulsions_Flow">Centrifugal Pump Performance Under Stable and Unstable Oil-Water Emulsions Flow</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="68347850" href="https://independent.academia.edu/SadekKassab">Sadek Kassab</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">Proceedings of the 20TH …, 2008</p><div class="ds-related-work--ctas"><button class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-swp-download-button" data-signup-modal="{"location":"wsj-grid-card-download-pdf-modal","work_title":"Centrifugal Pump Performance Under Stable and Unstable Oil-Water Emulsions Flow","attachmentId":75384539,"attachmentType":"pdf","work_url":"https://www.academia.edu/62709109/Centrifugal_Pump_Performance_Under_Stable_and_Unstable_Oil_Water_Emulsions_Flow","alternativeTracking":true}"><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">download</span><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">Download free PDF</span></button><a class="ds2-5-text-link ds2-5-text-link--inline js-wsj-grid-card-view-pdf" href="https://www.academia.edu/62709109/Centrifugal_Pump_Performance_Under_Stable_and_Unstable_Oil_Water_Emulsions_Flow"><span class="ds2-5-text-link__content">View PDF</span><span class="material-symbols-outlined" style="font-size: 18px" translate="no">chevron_right</span></a></div></div><div class="ds-related-work--container js-wsj-grid-card" data-collection-position="9" data-entity-id="73175652" data-sort-order="default"><a class="ds-related-work--title js-wsj-grid-card-title ds2-5-body-md ds2-5-body-link" href="https://www.academia.edu/73175652/Optimal_Method_of_Selecting_Pumping_Systems_for_Viscous_Fluids">Optimal Method of Selecting Pumping Systems for Viscous Fluids</a><div class="ds-related-work--metadata"><a class="js-wsj-grid-card-author ds2-5-body-sm ds2-5-body-link" data-author-id="99284946" href="https://independent.academia.edu/abdelkrimladouani">abdelkrim ladouani</a></div><p class="ds-related-work--metadata ds2-5-body-xs">2004</p><p class="ds-related-work--abstract ds2-5-body-sm">The optimal selection of pumping systems for viscous fluids is very important in order to reduce the running costs. In this paper, a selecting method based on laboratory investigations on the performance of centrifugal pumps when handling viscous fluids and on diagrams of performance correction factors; is suggested. The ratio of specific speeds of water and the considered viscous mediums is nearly equal to the unity, and the obtained diagrams of performance correction factors versus the Reynolds number allow a clear and a rapid selection of pumps. From the specific speed required by the system and based on these results, the optimal pump is selected, and the optimal diameter of the network pipes is deduced. If the rate flow is very different from the required by the system, a new pump is adapted by the calculation of its new rotational speed. If the diameter of the system pipe is imposed, a nearly pump must be selected and adapted by varying its rotational speed.
