Design Eccentricity for Slurry Pump?
Design Eccentricity for Slurry Pump?
(OP)
I am designing footings for a slurry pump. I want to find the load due to impeller eccentricity using the equation
Fo=m.e.w^2 where
m=impeller mass, e=eccentricity, w=angular speed in radians/sec
Pump Wt~ 8800kg, Speed ~550rpm = 57.6 rads/sec
Does anyone know typical values for "e" or where I can find them?

RE: Design Eccentricity for Slurry Pump?
Failing that, less than 0.1 ", more than 0.001"
This assumes a very short overhang, obviously.
