PUMP
Pump is a machine, which imparts energy to the liquid flowing through it.
This energy can be utilized EITHER to lift water from a lower level to higher level OR to circulate in a closed circuit.

PUMP
A centrifugal pump converts energy of a prime mover (a electric motor or engine ) first into velocity or kinetic energy and then into pressure energy of a fluid being pumped.
The energy changes occur by two main parts of the pump, the impeller and the volute or diffuser.
The impeller is the rotating part that converts driver energy into the kinetic energy.
The volute or diffuser is the stationary part that converts the kinetic energy into pressure energy.
KIRLOSKAR BROTHERS LIMITED, DEWAS
The energy created by the centrifugal force is kinetic energy. The amount of energy given to the liquid is proportional to the velocity at the vane tip of the impeller. The faster the impeller revolves or the bigger the impeller is, then the higher will be the velocity of the liquid at the vane tip and the greater the energy imparted to the liquid.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
KIRLOSKAR BROTHERS LIMITED, DEWAS
This kinetic energy of a liquid coming out of an impeller is harnessed by creating a resistance to the flow. The first resistance is created by the pump volute (casing) that catches the liquid and slows it down. In the discharge nozzle, the liquid further decelerates and its velocity is converted to pressure according to Bernoulli’s principle.
Therefore, the head (pressure in terms of height of liquid) developed is approximately equal to the velocity energy at the periphery of the impeller.
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
KIRLOSKAR BROTHERS LIMITED, DEWAS
The liquid is filled in the pump casing and suction pipe. This process is called “Priming”.
When the impeller rotates, it spins the liquid filled between the vanes outward due to centrifugal action.
As liquid leaves the eye of the impeller, a low-pressure area ( vacuum ) is created at the eye of impeller.
This creates Differential Pressure between water source and impeller eye, causing liquid to flow toward the inlet.

PUMP TERMINOLOGY
Static Suction Lift (hss) : It is the vertical distance from liquid level to pump centre line. It exists when the source of liquid is below the pump centre line and attracts a negative sign.
Static Suction Head (hss) : It is the vertical distance from liquid level to pump centre line. It exists when the source of liquid is above the pump centre line and attracts a positive sign.
Static Delivery Head (hsd) : It is the vertical distance from pump centre line to the highest discharge point.
KIRLOSKAR BROTHERS LIMITED, DEWAS
PUMP TERMINOLOGY
Total Static Head (hst) : It is the vertical distance from liquid level to the highest discharge point. It is an algebraic subtraction of static suction lift / head from static delivery head.
Pump with suction lift : Total Static Head = hsd – ( -hss)
hsd + hss
Pump with suction head : Total Static Head = hsd - hss
Total Head (H) : It is the sum of total static head and frictional head ( required to overcome the resistance to flow in the pipe and fittings ).
Total Suction Lift (Manometric Lift) Hm : It is the sum of total static suction lift and frictional head in suction branch.

The ENTRY LOSS caused by the liquid streamlining past the vanes’ edge into the impeller. This loss has a direct bearing on the capability of the impeller to suck the specified amount of liquid. Loss can be kept low by correct vane shape and finish.
LEAKAGE LOSS across a pressure differential, usually at the wear rings. This loss can be minimized by running the pump with close – but not dangerously close – clearance.

DISC FRICTION is caused by the impeller shrouds rotating in liquid. The loss can be kept low by providing a good machining or casting finish to the impeller walls. Reducing the volume of liquid between impeller and volute walls is also an advantage.
The HYDRAULIC LOSSES in the pump are caused by friction and turbulence in all passages. Losses can be kept low by smooth finish, correct velocity and distribution of flow.

STUFFING BOX LOSSES must be kept low : By cutting out all unnecessary turns of packing By running the gland just right enough for a

In case of mechanical seal, by ensuring that no undue friction horse power is consumed due to unsuitable rubbing faces or too high face loading.

PUMP TERMINOLOGY
NET POSITIVE SUCTION HEAD (NPSH)Related with the suction lift characteristic of the pump. It takes care of the atmospheric pressure at the site and the temperature of pumping liquid which affect the pump performance.
NET POSITIVE SUCTION HEAD AVAILABLE (NPSHA) : Related to pump installation.
NPSHA = Ha - Hvp - hss - hfswhere, Ha = atmospheric pressure in m
Hvp = vapour pressure of pumping liquid in mhss = static suction lift in mhfs = friction losses in suction branch including losses
in foot valve and bends in m
KIRLOSKAR BROTHERS LIMITED, DEWAS
PUMP TERMINOLOGY
NET POSITIVE SUCTION HEAD REQUIRED (NPSHR)Related with pump design. It is the minimum energy required at the pump inlet to exhibit the rated performance as per the characteristic curve.
NPSHR = Ha - Hvp – Hman + Vs2/2gwhere, Ha = atmospheric pressure in m
Hvp = vapour pressure of pumping liquid in mHman = Manometric / Total suction lift in mVs2/2g = Suction velocity head m
At any Operating point NPSHA should be more than NPSHR
In the operating range if NPSHR > NPSHA, the pump will cavitate resulting in lower discharge and efficiency.
KIRLOSKAR BROTHERS LIMITED, DEWAS
When the pressure of the liquid is reduced to equal to or less than 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.
Cavitation results in : Noise. Vibration. Pitting of impeller and Devlivery casing. Reduction in discharge and efficiency.

Specific Gravity Pump develops Same Head (in meters of liquid) independent
of specific gravity but the pressure in kg/cm2 is proportional to the specific gravity.
Pump delivers the same quantity by volume independent of sg but the quantity by weight will be proportional to the sg.
Efficiency is un-effected by the sg. Power is directly proportional to sg. Permissible lift varies with specific gravity. As sg increases,
suction lift decreases. Example : Example : SG = 1 Power = 3.2 kW
SG = 1.1 Power = 3.5 kWSG = 0.9 Power = 2.9 kW

INSTALLATION &
TROUBLE SHOOTING
KIRLOSKAR BROTHERS LIMITED, DEWAS
Installation Location: The pump should be located near to the water source to
minimize the suction lift.
Grouting: After the installation is completed, the foundation bolts should be tightened evenly and grouting may be completed. Sufficient time should be allowed for setting and seasoning of the foundation.
KIRLOSKAR BROTHERS LIMITED, DEWAS
Piping
Pipe size should be as per the flange size to get higher discharge.It is not recommended to reduce the pipe length.
The piping should be airtight. Any leakage in suction pipe may drastically affect the performance of the pump.
The piping should be as short as possible for getting better discharge.
KIRLOSKAR BROTHERS LIMITED, DEWAS
Piping
The horizontal length of the suction pipe should be straight to avoid air trapping in pipe.
A check valve should be installed in the pipe line for delivery pressure more than 20 meters.
KIRLOSKAR BROTHERS LIMITED, DEWAS
ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
Proper earthing connection should be made at the bolts provided for earthing.
Proper size cable should be used between supply and motor terminals to minimize voltage drop.
Nuts at terminal should be tightened properly. No. of joints in cable should be as minimum as possible,
preferably joints should be avoided. Wires and connections should be properly insulated. If
not, it may be lead to fatal shock. Proper backup protection (reputed makes starter, main
switch and fuse) should be used.
