Introduction
Simply stated, a pump is a machine used to
move liquid through a piping system and to
raise the pressure of the liquid. A pump can be
further defined as a machine that uses several
energy transformations to increase the pressure
of a liquid.
There are actually three distinct reasons for
raising the pressure of a liquid with a pump:
1. Static elevation A liquids pressure must be
increased to raise the liquid from one elevation
to a higher elevation. This might be necessary,
for example, to move liquid from one floor of a
building to a higher floor.

2. Friction. It is necessary to increase the
pressure of a liquid to move the liquid through
a piping system and overcome frictional losses.
Liquid moving through a system of pipes,
valves, and fittings experiences frictional losses
along the way.
3. Pressure. In some systems it is necessary to
increase the pressure of the liquid for process
reasons. In addition to moving the liquid over
changes in elevation and through a piping
system, the pressure of a liquid must often be
increased to move the liquid into a pressurized
vessel, such as a boiler or fractionating tower,
or into a pressurized pipeline.

Pressure and Head
It is important to understand the relationship
between pressure and head. Pressure is
measured in psi (pounds per square inch) or
kilopascal (kPa), bar, or kilograms per square
centimeter (kg/cm
2
), while the equivalent units
for head are meters (m) or feet(ft).

Classification of Pumps
There are many ways to classify pumps:
according to their function, their conditions of
service, materials of construction, etc. The
pump industry trade association, the Hydraulic
Institute, has classified pumps as follows:
1. Kinetic: In a kinetic pump, energy is
continuously added to the liquid to increase its
velocity. When the liquid velocity is
subsequently reduced, this produces a pressure
increase. Although there are several special
types of pumps that fall into this classification,
for the most part this classification consists of
centrifugal pumps.
5
Spring 1390
Centrifugal pumps, involve a collection of
blades, buckets, flow channels, or passages
arranged around an axis of rotation to form a
rotor. Rotation of the rotor produces dynamic
effects that either add energy to the fluid or
remove energy from the fluid. centrifugal
pumps are classified as axial-flow, mixed-flow,
or radial-flow machines depending on the
predominant direction of the fluid motion
relative to the rotors axis as the fluid passes
the blades
6
Spring 1390
Positive Displacement In a positive
displacement pump, energy is periodically
added to the liquid by the direct application of a
force to one or more movable volumes of liquid.
This causes an increase in pressure up to the
value required to move the liquid through ports
in the discharge line. The important points here
are that the energy addition is periodic (i.e., not
continuous) and that there is a direct
application of force to the liquid. Typical
examples shown include the common tire pump
used to fill bicycle tires, the human heart, and
the gear pump.
7
Spring 1390
The following are some key application criteria
that would lead to the selection of a P.D. pump
over a centrifugal pump:
a) High viscosity
b) Self-priming
c) High pressure
d) Low flow
e) High efficiency
f) Low velocity
g) Low shear
h) Fragile solids handling capability
i) Accurate, repeatable flow measurement
j) Constant flow/variable system pressure
k) Two-phase flow

Cavitation in Turbomachines
Cavitation refers to conditions at certain
locations within the turbomachine where the
local pressure drops to the vapor pressure of
the liquid, and as a result, vapor filled cavities
are formed. As the cavities are transported
through the turbomachine into regions of
greater pressure,
they will collapse rapidly,
generating extremely high
localized pressures. Signs of
cavitation in turbopumps
include noise, vibration, and
lowering of the head-
discharge and efficiency
curves.
10
Spring 1390
On the suction side of a pump, low pressures
are commonly encountered, with the possibility
of cavitation occurring within the pump. The
requiered head at the pump inlet to keep the
liquid from cavitating or boiling is called Net
Possitive Suction Head (NPSH).
Consider the shown operating pump. Location 1
is on the liquid surface on the suction side, and
location 2 is the point of minimum pressure
within the pump.

A centrifugal pump is to be placed above a
large, open water tank, as shown, and is to
pump water at a rate of 0.5 cfs. At this flowrate
the required net positive suction head, is 15 ft,
as specified by the pump manufacturer. If the
water temperature is and atmospheric pressure
is 14.7 psi, determine the maximum height,
that the pump can be located above the water
surface without cavitation. Assume that the
major head loss between the tank and the
pump inlet is due to filter at the pipe inlet
having a minor loss coefficient k=20. Other
losses can be neglected. The pipe on the suction
side of the pump has a diameter of 4 in.

is
no more than a meter or so, and the net pump
head is essentially equal to the change in

The power delivered to the fluid simply equals
the specific weight times the discharge times
the net head change This is traditionally
called the water horsepower. The power
required to drive the pump is the brake
horsepower where is the shaft

The efficiency is basically composed of three
parts: volumetric, hydraulic, and mechanical.
1. The volumetric efficiency is where Q
L

is the loss of fluid due to leakage in the
impeller-casing clearances
2. The hydraulic efficiency where h
f
has
three parts: (1) shock loss at the eye due to
imperfect match between inlet flow and the
blade entrances, (2) friction losses in the blade
passages, and (3) circulation loss due to
imperfect match at the exit side of the blades.

Water is to be pumped from one large, open
tank to a second large, open tank as shown.
The pipe diameter throughout is 6 in. and the
total length of the pipe between the pipe
entrance and exit is 200 ft. Minor loss
coefficients for the entrance, exit, and the elbow
are shown on the figure, and the friction factor
for the pipe can be assumed constant and equal
to 0.02. A certain centrifugal pump having the
given performance characteristics is suggested
as a good pump for this flow system. With this
pump, what would be the flowrate between the
tanks? Do you think this pump would be a good
choice?(Munson, 2009)

Dimensionless Parameters and
Similarity Laws
As we studied earlier, we know that the
principal, dependent pump variables are the
actual head rise h
a
, shaft power
shaft
, and
efficiency . We expect that these variables will
depend on the geometrical configuration, which
can be represented by some characteristic
diameter D, other pertinent lengths L, and
surface roughness , In addition, the other
important variables are flowrate Q, the pump
shaft rotational speed , fluid viscosity , and
fluid density .
31
Spring 1390

When the pump flow involves high Reynolds
numbers experience has shown that the effect
of the Reynolds number can be neglected. For
simplicity, the relative roughness, can also be
neglected in pumps since the highly irregular
shape of the pump chamber is usually the
dominant geometric factor rather than the
surface roughness. Thus, with these
2

(all pertinent dimensions, scaled by a common

diameter pump having the shown performance
characteristics while operating at 1000 rpm. For
peak efficiency, predict the discharge, actual
head rise, and shaft horsepower for this smaller
pump. The working fluid is water at 60 F
(Munson, 2009).
