CENTRIFUGAL PUMP APPARATUS

DESCRIPTION:

This apparatus for a comprehensive range of investigations into the performance and characteristics of a single centrifugal pump, or two identical pumps in a series or parallel configuration. The characteristics for investigate are head verses flow, efficiency verses flow, and power verses flow. This set also should demonstrate of  a cavitation’s.

 

SPECIFICATION:

• A compact, mobile and fully self-contained centrifugal pump test set, with clearly and effectively enables to assess the characteristics of a centrifugal pump.
• A integral reservoir for re circulate water. This will keeps water consumption to a minimum.
• An A.C  motor  mounted in bearings drives the pump. The pump  draws water from the integral reservoir.
• Instrumentation and control modules conveniently mount in the upper section of the equipment frame.
• A venture to measure a flow rate.
• Valve for inlet and delivery can be adjust to provide different operating conditions

 

EXPERIMENTAL DETAILS:

Including research, demonstration, and for the next comprehensive centrifugal pump:

Head for the flow and efficiency of the centrifugal pump for flow performance

• Characteristics typically
• Performance characteristics of the non-dimensional
• Venture tube for measuring flow using
• Cavitation Demonstration

 

RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS:

Following characteristics can be studied at different Speeds.

• Discharge V/S Head.
• Discharge V/S Input to pump.
• Discharge V/S Pump efficiency.
• Calculate the output of the pump, given the discharge and the total head.
• Calculate the input
• Calculate the efficiency.
