Basics in Process Design

Pump and pipe systems

Chemical Engineering Design,

Towler, Sinnott, 2013

Block flow diagrams

Calculate flows from mass and

energy balances

Rough sizing of equipment for

– storage

– preprocessing

– reaction

– separation,

– heat exchange

– transport

Instrumentation

Cost estimates

Today

Pumps

Pump curves

Pump and system

curves – Work point

Flow control

Recalculation of pump

curves

Example

Questions?

Positive displacement pumps

– pistonpump, membranepump, screwpump,

sliding vane pump, excenterscrew pump,

hosepump, loberotorpump, cogwheelpump

Rotating hydrodynamic pumps

– centrifugal pump (radial pump), axial pump

(propellerpump)

Other pumps

– mammothpump, ejectorpump

Pump characteristic curves

Centrifugal pumps

Pressure increase in a pump

at different flows at a certain speed

Changes in

speed or fluid

properties

changes the

curve

Pump and system curves

Work point

Combination of pump curve and

system curve gives work point

Recalculation of pump curves
