Velocity pump discharge
Velocity pump discharge
(OP)
I am reviewing submersible pumps specifications.
Is it right to check the velocity at the end of the pipe discharge using the design flow rate? (Or this is already cover by the pump manufacturer).
I got a case where the velocity is 5 m/s in a 6'' pump discharge before going into a 10'' (pipe diameter inside the pumping station and rising main).

Checking whether the pump will do what you want it to do is more important than this.
