Introduction

  • Turbomachines add or extract energy from a fluid

stream.

  • In

this course, we are mainly concerned with performance and system modeling.

  • We will examine those which add energy to the fluid
  • stream. These includes:

– Pumps – Fans – Compressors

Example 4-1 (Problem 4-1)

  • A piping system requires a pump to be selected to

deliver at least 75 (GPM) of flow at 400 (ft) of head. The pump is to operate on a 60 (Hz) fixed nominal speed of 3500 (RPM). Select a pump using Fig. 4-2 and determine the nominal impeller size, operating efficiency, and NPSHR for the desired characteristics.

Example 4-3 (Problem 4-5)

  • Consider the closed loop pumping system sketched below. If the total

length of the piping is 60 (m), with the diameter of 5 (cm), and a roughness of 0.0001 (m), what is the resultant flow in the system if the pump has the following characteristic: and the filter has the following pressure loss: We also know:

Kv=6.0

Pumps performance (Series)

  • Pumps are combined in series to increase pumping

head when discharge is satisfactory.

– We add head “H” at constant flow rate “Q”:

Pumps performance (Parallel)

  • Pumps are combined in parallel when pumping head

is adequate but discharge is not.

– We add flow rate “Q” at constant head “H”:

Example 4-5 (Example 4-3 cont.)

  • A continuation of problem 4-5. If the desired discharge

were m=25 (kg/s) and the pump was normally run at 1750 (RPM), can the desired discharge be achieved with two pumps in series or two pumps in parallel?

Cavitation in Pumps

  • Cavitation is the formation and collapse of bubbles in the impeller

housing of a pump.

  • It can lead to erosion pitting of the impeller leading to a loss of

pump performance.

  • We ensure cavitation does not occur by insuring that Net Positive

Suction Head (NPSH) available (A) exceeds that required by the pump (R).

  • NPSHA is a design parameter, while NPSHR is a characteristic of

the pump.

Cavitation in Pumps (cont.)

  • NPSHA is defined as follow:

– The head losses up to the pump inlet are what are included, nothing else! – This leads to a number

  • f

analysis problems such as: finding vertical placement (Zi), horizontal placement (Li), intake diameter (Di), or minor loss factor (K).

Example 4-6

  • A particular pump is required to pump 24000 (GPM) of water

whose free surface is at atmospheric pressure. If the losses leading up to the inlet at this flow rate are 6 (ft) of head, where should the pump be placed with respect to the free surface to avoid cavitation if the NPSHR=40 (ft)? The vapor pressure of water is 0.26 (psi) and the ρg value is 62.4 (lb/ft3).

Fans and Fan Performance

  • Fan Performance

– Fan performance and scaling is much the same as is for pumps – Major difference is that for many fans, total pressure is used in the performance curve as the inlet and outlet areas are

  • ften not equal.

– Thus, we define:
