Search based on alternative pipe systems

Several different pipe systems can be specified to find different pump solutions to the same task. The different pipe systems are referred to as Cases. 1. Follow the instructions in section Search based on required flow and a specified pipe system on page 18 to specify the first pipe system and search for suitable pumps. 2. Click the # icon in the Case Manager Toolbar. A new Main window with a second case is opened. This case will be a copy of the active case. 3. Repeat the procedure to specify a second pipe system and search for suitable pumps. The search criteria are common for all cases and do not have to be specified again. Up to 15 different systems can be specified. 4. Repeat steps 2 - 3 to specify several alternative systems. Swap between open windows by using the Case Manager Toolbar. The open window can be arranged as Layered, Cascaded or Tiled in the Windows menu.
Search based on slurry calculation

This function selects pumps for slurry applications. It calculates the reduction factors caused by the presence of solids for the head and flow from the pump. Note! For homogeneous, viscous or non-settling slurries this function is not an adequate tool. Also, this slurry function only supports the Colebrook-White method for the calculation of friction losses. Only a small amount of input data from the considered application is required to use this tool. The basic input data are the slurry description, particle size distributions (d50 and d85), SGs of the liquid, solids and mixture, solids concentration by weight and volume, mass fraction of particles < 75m and particle shape (sand or mica). These inputs are used to calculate the intersection between the system and pump curves, both in terms of slurry, to give the new duty point. 1. On the main Flyps screen, select Search Tab. 2. From the Tool menu choose Define liquid/slurry or click the icon.
Specify liquid
3. Select a slurry type from stored projects. Four slurries are stored as standards; copper and iron ores, mill scale and sand.
Browse liquid
4. You can define your own slurry by entering a description, particle size distributions (d50 and d85), SGs of the liquid, solids and mixture, solids concentration by weight and volume, mass fraction of particles < 75m and particle shape (sand or mica). See Specify liquid overview 5. Click OK twice to return to Search. 6. In the Tool menu choose File and select Save or click the icon. It is very important to save your new slurry to be able to find it later under Browse. 7. Enter the flow and head for the specific project, select connection, installation, pump type and start search. (Note: If you define the piping system as well, the slurry must be defined first.) 8. Mark one or several pumps.
Main Screen - Search
9. In the Tool menu, choose Duty analysis or click the icon.

Above this, the slurry will be considered homogeneous, viscous or non-settling. Particle shape = Sand for spherical shapes or mica for flat shapes
Search based on energy consumption

This function is used when the lowest total energy consumption is the primary search criteria for a pumping solution. Most flow duration diagrams can be simplified and reduced to a format of max., average and min. values with very accurate results. This flow data is very useful when searching for a pump selection yielding the lowest energy consumption. It can be used to determine the optimum parallel pump solution. The energy consumption is based on a On-Off pumping system. 1. In the Main window, select the Search Tab. 2. In the Tool menu choose Flow duration or click the icon. A window for specifying the flow duration data appears. 3. Enter maximum(peak)-, average- and minimum flow values and enter the duration in percentage for each flow respectively. Click OK.

Pump System Analysis
Overview
FLYPS 2.1 provides a number of facilities to analyze a pump system. These tools are accessed from the Toolbar or the Menu and can only be activated when a pump has been selected. The system curve characteristics must be defined before an analysis can be performed. The system curve can be defined by two specified duty points or by specifying a pipe system. To fully utilize these tools, good pumping knowledge is essential.
Pipe system design

The system curve is the base for all analysis in FLYPS 2.1. A pipe system with two individual pipes (suction piping and/or station piping) per pump and up to three common pipes (force mains) with different dimensions and properties can be specified. A number of user-selectable point losses can be added to each pipe section. Branched systems cannot be analyzed. 1. In the Tool menu, choose Pipe system design or icon in the toolbar. A window for pipe click the system design appears. 2. Select any of the tabs Station Piping 1, Station Piping 2 or ForceMain1 - ForceMain3.
32 Pump System Analysis
3. Enter pipe section length and select Material, Pressure class and Dimension. Values for inside diameters for standard pipes are stored in a table. It is also possible to specify a custom or special pipe by clicking the check box for Standard pipes and entering the inside diameter. 4. Click the spin controls to enter number of pipe fittings for each pipe section. 5. Repeat steps 2 - 4 until the entire system has been defined.
Pipe System Design dialog box
Head loss calculations

Head Loss calculations can be made to determine the required total discharge head (TDH.). FLYPS 2.1 supports two methods of head loss calculations; the Colebrook-White and HazenWilliams equations. Typical values used in these calculations such as roughness / C-factors for different materials and point loss factors can be edited in Setup (See also Set Head loss calculation method and constants on page 64). Single or parallel multi-pump systems can be analyzed. The calculations are based on clean water pumping.
Pump System Analysis 33
1. Design the pipe system (see Pipe system design on page 32). 2. Enter the design flow and the static head.
Head loss calculations
The following is calculated and presented: Total friction loss Total head, (static head and total losses) Liquid velocity for each pipe section (station piping only if the Single (pump) radio button is selected) If the Multi (multiple pump) radio button is selected, different values for the total losses are presented (the flow rate in the station piping will vary depending upon the number of pumps required to meet the total flow). The different values for total head can be used when searching for multiple pump solutions when the number of requested pumps is unspecified.
Duty Analysis
Performance analysis is used to study pump performance curves and duty conditions in a single or a multiple pump system. One or several flow/head-, power-, efficiency- and NPSH curves can be displayed for comparing pump alternatives. Duty conditions, combined and for each individual pump, can be studied in a system with several identical pumps. The duty point is based on the system curve. The data is presented in both diagram and table format. The graphs presenting performance curves and duty conditions can be printed or exported to a WMF-file (Windows Meta File) 1. Specify a system by entering a flow, total head and static head or by designing a pipe system and giving a flow. 2. Select pumps by searching or browsing (See Browse on page 15 or "Search" on page 16) 3. Mark one or several pumps in the pump list and choose Duty analysis in the Tool menu or click the icon in the toolbar. A window for performance analysis appears. The marked pumps are transferred into the analysis window. The window is divided into two tabs; Performance curves and Duty conditions.

Life cycle cost analysis

The following is an excerpt from the Guide to Life Cycle Cost Analysis for Pumping Systems developed by the Hydraulic Institute and EUROPUMP. Pumping systems account for nearly 20% of the worlds electrical energy demand and range from 25-50 % of the energy usage in certain industrial plant operations. Pumping systems are widespread; they provide domestic services, commercial and agricultural services, infrastructure services, and industrial services for food processing, chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical, and mechanical industries. Although pumps are offered to markets as individual machines, they provide a service only when operating as part of a system. The energy and materials consumed in accomplishing this task depend on the design of the pump, the design of the installation, and the way the system is operated. These factors are interdependent. Whats more, they must be carefully matched to each other, and remain so throughout their working lives to ensure the lowest energy consumption and cost. The initial purchase price is a small part of the LCC for high usage pumps. Operating requirements may sometimes override energy cost considerations, but an optimum solution is still possible. A greater understanding of all the components that make up the total cost of ownership will provide an opportunity to dramatically reduce energy, operational, and maintenance cost. Excessive waste and energy usage are important factors
in global environmental pollution. Reducing energy and material usage also benefits the user by reducing costs. Life Cycle Cost (LCC) analysis is a management tool that can help companies minimize waste and maximize energy efficiency for many types of systems, including pumping systems Life cycle cost analysis is used when comparing life cycle costs for different pumping solutions. Future energy costs and miscellaneous annual costs are calculated into a capitalized present day value based on the selected interest rate. The calculation is based on the summation of the cost elements that make up the LCC. LCC = (Cic + Cin + Ce + Co + Cm + Cs + Cd + Cenv) C = cost element ic = initial cost, purchase price (pump, system, pipe, auxiliary services) in = installation and commissioning cost (including training) e = energy costs (predicted cost for system operation, including pump driver, controls, and any auxiliary services) o = operation cost (labor cost of normal system supervision) m = maintenance and repair cost (routine and predicted repairs) s = down time cost (loss of production) d = decommissioning/disposal cost (including restoration of the local environment and disposal of auxiliary services). env = environmental cost (contamination from pumped liquid and auxiliary equipment) Pumping solutions selected in all open Cases can be compared 1. Select pumps by searching (See Search on page 16) 2. Mark one or several pumps in the pump list and choose life cycle cost in the Tool menu or click the icon in the toolbar. A window for economy analysis
appears. The marked pumps are transferred into the analysis window. 3. Enter values for interest rate, energy rate, economic project life and annual operation time. 4. To include pumps selected in all open Cases, select the option Include all open cases. All marked pumps in the inactive Cases are imported for the purpose of performing a life cycle cost analysis. 5. Select the LCC button.
1. Select the Initial Investment and Decommissioning Cost tab. 2. Enter the cost of the pumps, controls, accessories, piping and engineering and design in the appropriate text boxes. This will encompass Cic Total Equipment Cost. The pump cost should be per pump while the balance of the items should be total cost. Costs that are not applicable should be left as 0.00. 3. Continue with installation cost and commissioning cost (including any training), to make up Cin. 4. Enter any decommissioning cost. 5. Select the Annual Costs tab.
1. The annual pump energy cost is calculated and displayed in a grayed out text box. 2. Enter any other annual energy cost for the auxiliary equipment. This will be added to, and displayed as the Total Energy Cost. 3. The next two text boxes are for the pump operating cost and any additional operating costs. 4. They give the Total Cost of Operation.
5. The next two boxes are for the pump maintenance cost and any other maintenance costs. 6. These two boxes are added together and displayed as Total Cost of Maintenance. 7. Next are inputs for down time cost and environmental cost. These are added to the three above totals to give the Total Annual Cost. 8. Select OK to view the bar graphs in the LCC Window.
VFD - Analysis
The VFD analysis tool is used to examine the effects of variable speed pumping with a Variable Frequency Drive (VFD). Two ways of applying VFD controls can be analyzed: One-Pump, One pump is speed regulated and all others run at full speed with On-Off control. All-Pumps, All pumps in the system are speed regulated in parallel. A number of graphs can be displayed to show the effects of VFD use in the specified system. Graphs can be printed or exported to a WMF-file (Windows Meta File) 1. Select pumps by browsing or searching (See Browse on page 15 or "Search" on page 16). 2. Mark one or several pumps in the pump list and choose VFD analysis in the Tool menu or click the icon in the toolbar. A window for VFD analysis appears. The marked pumps are transferred into the analysis window. 3. Click on the pump list to select a pump. 4. Select the type of VFD control: One-pump VFD control or All-pumps VFD control. The two VFD control scenarios that are available are by far the most popular. The first, One-Pump VFD refers to a control scenario where one pump is speed regulated while all other pumps that are running are at full speed. This scheme starts with the speedregulated pump coming on first and increasing in speed until it reaches full speed. At this time another pump would be started and this pump would run at full speed while the second would be speed regulated. This would continue until all pumps were running at full speed. The shut down sequence would be in reverse. The second scenario, AllPumps VFD, refers to a control system in which all pumps are speed regulated together. In such a system all pumps would be run at the same time and the same speed. They would be increased in speed until they all reach full speed.

Flyps will use this value to determine the efficiency of the VFD and in turn calculate the specific energy. The Ideal button selects a typical PWM VFD, but it ignores the effect the VFD can have on a motor related to torque. This effect is taken into account in the next two types. The Frequency ~ Voltage option is the most common PWM VFD type. Here, the voltage remains proportional to the frequency throughout the reduced frequency range. This means the torque capability of the motor remains constant as frequency is reduced, but the attached (centrifugal) load will be reduced more quickly than the linear reduction in frequency. Thus the relative load on the motor becomes less and less as frequency is reduced, and at lower loads the motor will tend to operate less efficiently. The Frequency ~ Voltage2 is the recommended PWM VFD type for centrifugal loads. In this case, as frequency is reduced the voltage is reduced by the square of the reduction in frequency. The motor torque is reduced more quickly than in the above case, roughly in the same proportion as the attached centrifugal load. Thus, the relative load on the motor is almost constant so it operates at about the same high efficiency at lower loads as it did at full load.

Tutorial
Overview
We will explore, step by step, the procedures needed to perform your first pump search and basic system analysis in this section. This guided tour is divided into two parts. The first part is basic and covers a pump search together with a simple system analysis and product data printout. The second part is more advanced and covers different aspects of pump searching together with an extensive system analysis. It is assumed that you are comfortable with working in the Windows environment.
Basic pump search

Task description
Find a suitable pump for a duplex wastewater pump station. The pump should be in a wet pit installation. The design flow for the station is 350 GPM and total head is 29 ft. Available voltage is 460 V with a frequency of 60 Hz. The following parameters should be included in the specification of the pump: Product data Product code Curve code
Tutorial 67
Voltage [V] Rated power [HP] Rated current [A] Starting current [A] Weight [lbs] Available discharge connection sizes Height of pump [ft] Performance Flow [GPM] Head [ft] Deviation from duty point [%] Input power [kW] Overall efficiency [%] Pump efficiency [%] NPSH required [ft] Enclose printouts of a dimensional drawing and performance curve for the specification after retrieving all the data. If you have studied the manual for FLYPS 2.1, try to solve this task by yourself. Otherwise, let the following pages guide you through the pump selection process, and learn how to retrieve performance and product data and how to print outline dimensional drawings and performance curves.
Solution
Pump search The first step in a search is to enter the duty point. Enter flow and head. Static head can be set to zero if it is unknown. The entered value in the input box is total head, i.e. the sum of static head and friction loss. The C-type impeller is typical for wastewater applications (See Appendix Description of Flygt pump types on page 88 for more information). It has a high efficiency and excellent solids handling properties. We are searching for a wet pit pump installation, so be sure that the installation type is set to wet.
68 Tutorial User's Guide FLYPS 2.1
The specification stated that one pump should be able to handle the duty point. This means that the connection should be set to single. Remember to always make sure that proper search criteria are used. Incorrect search criteria may result in an incorrect pump selection. A search interval of 10 % is adequate for low flows. For larger flows, use a narrower interval. The min. / max. value in the multiple pump search section is not accounted for when running a search with a single connection. FM approval is not normally needed for standard wastewater applications. For the rest of the parameters, use the default values. Search for all poles, phases and materials. 1. Select the Search tab 2. Specify duty point. Enter flow. 250 GPM. Static head is unknown. Enter 0 ft. Enter head. 29 ft. 3. Click to choose impeller type C.

Main screen - Pump list
The pump list can be sorted according to different criteria. Sorting can be done with respect to no of pumps, deviation from duty point, specific energy and total energy. The fact that we are searching for a single pump means that it is useless to sort by number of pumps. A duration diagram has to be specified in order to sort on total energy. The relevant parameters left to sort on are deviation from duty point and specific energy. The following performance data can be obtained in the result list: Duty point flow Power consumption (input power) NPSH req. The C 3102 is the least expensive one in the pump list. Lets analyze this pump to determine if the duty point is acceptable. Specifically, we want to determine if the duty point is within the preferred operational range on the pump curve, if NPSH req. is acceptable, if the efficiency is sufficient, etc.

Solution
Pipe system specification The first step is to calculate the losses in the system. This is done in the Design pipe system window. The pipe system is divided into two different kinds of pipes, station piping and force main pipe. The total flow runs through the force main and the flow in the station piping is the flow from each pump. You can specify one or two station pipes for each pump in the system and up to 3 force mains.

Results from pump search. Sorted with respect to total energy.
The solution with the lowest specific energy at the maximum flow does not necessarily have to be the one with the lowest total energy consumption. In systems with normal flow distribution and high losses, multiple pump solutions tend to have lower total energy than solutions with few pumps. This is due to the fact that the losses decrease when fewer pumps are running.
Tutorial 85
Duty point analysis Always remember to check if the duty point(s) are on the preferred part of the curve, not power limited, NPSH required is OK, etc. When running with multiple parallel pumps it is important to check all duty points. Normally when selecting a pump, alternatives with negative difference are discarded. 1. Select the best pump (according to total energy) in the result list. Click on the first pump in the result list. 2. In the Tool menu, choose Duty analysis or click the icon in the toolbar. A window for duty analysis appears. 3. Select the Duty condition Tab. 4.

86 Tutorial
Summary The objective in this tutorial was to optimize for minimum energy consumption. By sorting the pump list with respect to specific energy, we will find a single CP 3201 which can handle the specified duty point. How much energy is saved by selecting the optimum 2xCP 3127 solution instead of the single pump solution? Total energy during 1 year for the 2 pump alternative is 61,600 kwh and for the single pump alternative 74,500 kwh. The energy saved by using 2 pumps instead of one is 74,500 - 61,600 = 12,900 kwh. Whether or not these savings are justifiable can be analyzed with the Life cycle cost tool.

Head loss calculation methods

The loss calculations in FLYPS 2.1 are based on the assumption that the pipes are entirely filled with liquid and that the liquid has the qualities of clean water. Density: 62.4 lb/ft Kinematic viscosity: 1.2 x 10-5 ft/s Description of loss calculation: Htot = Htot = Hs Hf = = Hs + Hf Total head Static head Head losses
The head losses consist of two parts: hf= hfl + hpl where hfl = Friction losses, hpl = Point losses In FLYPS the friction losses can be calculated with two different methods: Colebrook-White
L V2 h fl = f D 2g
is dependent upon the Reynolds number (Re) and the roughness of the pipe.
Re = VD
For turbulent flow (Re > 4000), Colebrook-White's formula is:

1 2.5 = 2 log10 + 3.7 D Re f f

where; f = Darcy-Weisbach friction factor, = absolute roughness-ft, D = inside diameter of pipe-feet, = kinematic, viscosity-ft2/sec. Hazen-Williams

where L = pipe length, including equivalent length for loss thorugh fittings-ft., C = friction factor for Hazen-Williams, gpm = flow of liquid, d = inside diameter of pipe-inches

Pump search methodology

During a duty point search for a pump, the program searches for the intersection between the system curve, which runs through the requested duty point, and the pump performance curve. This intersection is the duty point for this pump curve. The distance between the requested and actual duty point is calculated and compared with the distance to the requested duty point (see graph below). If this relative distance falls within the given search interval, the curve is regarded as a hit. The search interval is given with both a positive and a negative limit. Performance curves where the requested flow is less than 15% of the curve's maximum flow are not included in the search. This is done so that the program will not suggest pumps where the duty point would be close to the shutoff head.

Relative divergence between actual and requested duty points is calculated as follows: Rel. div. = D2 / D1

Cd Decommissioning/Disposal Cost (Cd) Decommissioning cost includes the restoration of the local environment and the disposal of pumps piping and auxiliary equipment. In the vast majority of cases, the cost of disposing of a pumping system will vary little with different designs. Cenv Environmental Cost, Including Disposal of Parts and Contamination from Pumped Liquid (Cenv) The cost of contaminant disposal during the lifetime of the pumping system varies significantly depending on the nature of the pumped product. Certain choices can significantly reduce the amount of contamination, but usually at an increased investment cost. Examples of environmental contamination can include cooling water and packing box leakage disposal, hazardous pumped product flare-off, used lubricant disposal, contaminated used parts, such as seals. Costs for environmental inspection should also be included. Cs Downtime and Loss of Production Cost (Cs) The cost of unexpected downtime and lost production is a very significant item in the total LCC and can rival the energy costs and replacement parts costs in its impact. The value of lost production can dwarf all other elements. Despite the design or target life of a pump and its components, there will be occasions when an unexpected failure occurs. In those cases
User's Guide FLYPS 2.1 Glossary 95
where the cost of lost production is unacceptably high, a spare pump may be installed in parallel to reduce the risk. If a spare pump is used, the initial cost will be greater but the cost of unscheduled maintenance will include only the cost of the repair. Cm Maintenance and Repair Cost (Cm) Obtaining optimum working life from a pump requires regular and efficient servicing. The manufacturer will advise the user about the frequency and the extent of this routine maintenance. Its cost depends on the time and frequency of service and the cost of materials. The design can influence these costs through the materials of construction and components chosen and the ease of access to the parts to be serviced. Co Operation Cost(Co) Operation costs are labor costs related to the operation of a pumping system. These vary widely depending on the complexity and duty of the system. For example, a hazardous duty pump may require daily checks for hazardous emissions, operational reliability, and performance within accepted parameters. On the other hand, a fully automated nonhazardous system may require very limited supervision. Regular observation of the functioning of a pumping system can alert operators to potential losses in system performance. Performance indicators include changes in vibration, shock pulse signature, temperature, noise, power consumption, flow rates, and pressure. Ce Energy Cost (Ce) Energy consumption is often one of the larger cost elements and may dominate the LCC especially if pumps run more than 2000 hours per year. Energy consumption is calculated first by gathering the data on the pattern of the system output. If output is steady, or essentially so, the calculation is simple. If output varies over time, then a time-based usage pattern needs to be established.
