    HEAT EXCHANGER SYSTEM CURVE

    Perhaps I missed this class while in college ... I understand that the actual pumping capacity (and head) is the result of intersection between pump curve and system curve. there is a pump supplying cold water for a typical heat exchanger process (cooling). By the ampere meter reading, we can...

    Pipeline vs Truck

    Hello, I wonder if someone ever calculate the comparation of power consumption between the thick mud transportation by pipeline and by truck. If necessary The capacity is say it 300 m3/hr height 250 m and length 2000 m. But for dump truck, it should be much longer because dump trucks have to...

    Fitting distance from Pump

    I read from a pump manual that we should be avoid any fittings, including bends, compensators, valves in the area of 5 X DN suction and 5 X DN discharge. I guess if before suction, the fitting will make the flow less smooth and can make cavitation. But what is the purpose of this 5 x DN? Thanks...

    Thermal Expansion Computation

    Dear Sir, How do we compute the thermal expansion of pump? Can we assume it as a solid body, so using the thermal coefficient of pump casing? Anyone have experience of this, please your help. Cheers, Muwardi

    Selfpriming Pump

    Dear all, Can you give solution for this requirement : To Empty the liquid from the drum to the vessel. After the drum is empty, the liquid from discharge hose must be drained by rotating the pump reversely, to make all hose line is empty from liquid. (can star impeller pump rotates reversely?)...

    Plastic pump vs plastic liner pump

    Dear all, WE have to pump H2SO4 95%, and we need the non metal pump to do so. There are two brand, submit their offer. The teflon lining pump and full non metal pump. The price is also different. Do you have any experience which one is better. Or in other word, which application is better than...

    Unpumpables

    Hi there, What is the definition of Unpumpable? I mean, what is the limitation of a fluid to be determined as "unpumpable". A piston pump like Putzmeister can pump the solid. Or in the Hidrostal brochure they said that they can pump fresh fish. What can be pumped, what can not be? Do...
