A Brief introduction to centrifugal pump
Mechanism:
P.E Rotation of the impeller
imparts energy to the
liquid causing it to exit the
P.E impeller’s vane at a
K.E greater velocity than it
P.E possessed when entered.

Performance Parameter of Pump
• Head: The quantity used to express the energy
content of the liquid per unit weight of the liquid.
Head is expressed in m of liquid.
• Capacity/Flow: Discharge delivered by the pump in
a unit time. It is expressed in m³/h or Lps or gpm.
• Hydraulic power: Theoretical power delivered to the
liquid by pump. [Mass flow(kg/s)*g (9.81m/s²)*H(m)]
Watt
• BHP: Power delivered to the Pump shaft. [Hydraulic
Power/Pump efficiency]
• Pump Efficiency: The ratio of energy delivered by
the pump to the energy supplied to the pump
shaft.
[Hydraulic power/BHP]
• NPSH: Net positive suction head. [m]

SOME TERMS ASSOCIATED WITH
CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS
• IMPELLER • CAVITATION
• VANES • MINIMUM RECYLE
• SHROUDS • THRUST BALANCE
• VOLUTE
• MECHENICAL
SEALS
• NPSH
• PRIMING
16
NPSH [Net positive suction head]
• NPSH: The value by which the pressure in the pump suction
exceeds the liquid vapour pressure. It is expressed as head of
liquid. NPSH is an analysis of energy condition on the
suction side of the pump to determine if the liquid will
vaporize at lowest pressure point in the pump.
• The value of NPSH needed at pump suction to avoid
cavitation in the pump is known as NPSHR.
• NPSHR is a characteristic of pump design. As the liquid
passes from the pump suction to the eye of impeller the
velocity increases and pressure decreases. There are
also pressure loss due to shock and turbulence as liquid
strike the impeller.
• A lower speed pump requires lower NPSH.
• A double suction pump requires 2/3rd as much NPSH as
compared to similar rated single suction pump.
• NPSH required increases with increase in flow.

• A SEAL IS BASICALLY A DEVICE FOR
CLOSING / SEALING A GAP OR MAKING A
JOINT FLUID TIGHT.
• Seals broadly classified into two
categories
• Static seal
• Dynamic seal
• Sealing device must be flexible to overcome
axial & radial displacement. Some
inaccuracies resulting from machining,
malfunctioning & assembly produce radial
displacement. Differential thermal expansion
causes axial displacement

Mechanical seal
FUNDEMENTAL OBJECTIVE OF MECHANICAL
SEAL OPERATION IS THE DEVELOPMENT
AND MAINTENANCE OF LIQUID FILM
BETWEEN SEAL FACES. THIS MICROSOPIC
FILM OF THE LIQUID ACTS AS A CUSHION
FOR THE SEAL FACES TO RIDE ON,THUS

Mechanical seal
MECHANICAL SEAL COMPRISES OF ROTATING AND
STATIONARY ELEMENT IN RUBBING CONTACT TO
FORM A SEALING FACE WITH MINIMAL LEAKAGE
PATH. THE FUNCTION OF A MECHANICAL SEAL IS
TO PREVENT LEAKAGE BETWEEN A ROTATING
SHAFT AND THE HOUSING
1. ALL MECH SEALS CONTAIN FOUR BASIC
ELEMENTS:
2. A ROTATING SEAL RING
3. A STATIONARY SEAL RING
4. A SPRING LOADING SECTION FOR MAINTAINING
SEAL FACE CONTACT.

System Characteristic
• The objective of the pump is to transfer or circulate
the liquid.
• A pressure is needed to make the liquid flow at
required rate and overcome head losses in the
system. Losses are of two type- 1. Static 2. Friction
• Static head is simply difference of height of supply
and destination reservoir.

Flow
System Characteristic-frictional head
• Friction head is the friction loss due to flow of liquid through
pipe, valves, fitting, equipments.
• Frictional losses are proportional to square of the flow rate.
• For given flow rate friction loss can be reduced by increasing
diameter of pipe, using improved fitting etc..
• A close loop circulating system without a surface open to
atmospheric pressure, would exhibit only frictional losses and
would have a system resistance curve as below.

Pump operating point
• The operating point will always be the intersection
point of System curve and Head-flow curve.

Pump Operating Point
• If the actual system curve is different in reality as
compared to calculated, the pump will operate at a flow
and head different to expected.
• An error in system curve calculation may lead to
selection of a centrifugal pump which will have efficiency
less than expected.
• Ideally, the operating point should correspond to the
flow rate at the pump’s Best Efficiency Point (BEP).
• In many applications, some margin in the pump capacity
may be needed to accommodate transient changes.
• However, it is generally desirable to limit over-sizing to
no more than 15-20%.
• Adding too much safety margin may lead to inefficient
pump selection in actual operation.

Power Requirement for Pump [Mgh]
You can use any of the following formulas to
make your calculations (for water only):
Hydraulic Head (ft) X Capacity (gpm)
=
Power (kW) 5308
Hydraulic = Head (meter) X Capacity (m³/h)
Power (kW)
360
Hydraulic Head (meter) X Capacity (lps)
=
Power (kW) 100
For fluids other than water multiply with sp. Gravity of fluid to
calculated power 43

TORQUE CONVERTER
• THE HYDRODYNAMIC TORQUE CONVERTER IS
PROVIDED FOR STEPLESS SPEED/TORQUE
TRANSMISSION BETWEEN MOTOR AND DRIVEN
MACHINE. THE PUMP IMPELLER ABSORBS THE
MECHANICAL ENERGY OF MOTOR, CONVERT IT TO

TURBINE WHEEL CONVERT IT BACK TO
MECHANICAL ENERGY.
