Pump Technology

P123 Pump class, type, feature and use

Classified by American Petroleum InstituteAPI 610.

P122 Pump shutoff operation Shutoff operation must be avoided.
P121 Relationship between pump performance curve and its operating point Whether the discharge valve is open or shut, the route that reaches the operating point by starting the pump is different.
P120 Relationship between pump total head and discharge pressure The discharge pressure of a pump is not the same as the value in which the total head shown in the performance curve of the pump is converted into pressure.
P119 Vent before a horizontal pump starts The pump must pull out all the air in the pump before it starts.
P118 Pump suction strainer Though a pump suction strainer is installed just before pump suction, it is not always necessary
P117 Pump design standard International standard and domestic standarad
P116 Performance of impeller cut Performance when impeller cut is changed as the file.
P115 Pump type Pump types are by API 610 (ISO 13709).
P114 Patent application number on centrifugal pumps It is a result of investigating the patent application numbers of domestic pump companies.
--- Heat countermeasures to bearings on high temperature pumps It is open to the public by patent proposal No. 2008-14224 in Japan.
P113 Example of improving efficiency and total head It is an example of reducing the clearance between wearing and impeller.
--- Design of low Ns impeller It is open to the public by patent proposal No. 2007-239674.
P111 Trend of JIS (Pumps) Three design standards had already issued.
P109 Range that can be driven Within the range of NPSH3<NPSHA, the pump can be driven.
P108 NPSH3 curve The tendency of NPSH3 changes by Ns.
P107 NPSHA NPSHA can be assumed by the calculation.
P106 Relationship between NPSH3 and NPSHA NPSH3 is an inherent value to the pump. NPSHA is decided by piping etc. around the pump.
P105 Relationship between various losses and Ns The leakage loss and the disc friction loss change by Ns among four factors.
P104 Factor to decide efficiency In general, loss evaluates separately for four factors.
P103 Expected pump efficiency Efficiency decreases so that the smaller Ns is, the smaller the size of the pump is.
P102 Characteristics of performance curve Performance characteristics of a pump change by Ns.
P101 Specific speed Ns It becomes rough ideas of the the characteristic, efficiency, and easiness of manufacturing a pump.
