Head Formula
Head Formula
(OP)
Hello,
Head* (1,1)^2 = max head
I realize 1.1 is about the frequency. But I could not get totally
what for is above formula used?
Thank you

RE: Head Formula
where does frequency come into it?

I am asking that anybody knows like this formula;
Head* (1,1)^2 = max head
RE: Head Formula
I think you're looking at affinity law here relating to the speed of a centrifugal pump.
This law states that the head varies as a square of the speed. Therefore for a pump with a head h1 at 50 htz, all other things being the same, the head at 55 htz is h1 x (55/50)^2 or h1 x (1.1)^2.
Flow is proportional to speed and power proportional to speed^3.
Just search "affinity law pumps".
You use it to calculate the change in head when you change speed, e.g. on when using a VFD.
