PUMPS AND PUMPING
Part II
Pump Power
N = Q ρ gH , [W]
Like any other driven machine, a pump consumes more power than it
gives off. The ratio of the actual power developed by the pump to the
power supplied by the pump (shaft power) gives the efficiency of the
pump:

Equation of moments
The torque acting on the pump shaft is equal to the increase in the angular
momentum of the fluid in the impeller per second:

For a centrifugal pump to deliver a high head the peripheral velocity must
be great and, secondly, the vector v2u must be large enough, i. e., sufficient
whirl should be imparted to the fluid. The former is achieved by increasing
the speed of rotation and impeller diameter, the latter is attained by
providing a sufficient number of vanes of suitable size and shape.

1. Angle β2 < 90°. In this case cot β2 is positive and the head Ht ∞ decreases
with the discharge increasing.
2. Angle β2 = 90°, cot β2 = 0 and Ht ∞ does not depend on the discharge and is
equal to u2/2g .
3. Angle β2 >90°, cot β2 is negative and the head Ht ∞ increases with the
discharge.

Ideal pump head equals the increase in pressure and velocity head (specific
pressure energy and specific kinetic energy) in the impeller.

The more the vane angle β2 the less the degree of reaction and (for real pump ) the
less is efficiency due to the loss in the volute casing.

It follows from the characteristic that for
centrifugal pump at Q=0 the pressure is
not too high, so there are no need in relief
valve.

Similarity of Pumps
Theoretical considerations are giving only qualitative results. The more realistic results is
possible to get by making pump model tests, especially in designing a new pump. From
the test results the pump similarity rules are used for calculating parameters of the pump
under construction. The theory of similarity is based on the rules of hydraulic modeling.
Geometric similitude – measures and shape of the model and pump should be in scale.
Kinematic similitude – velocities should be in scale.

Dynamic Similitude
Ratio of frictional, inertial forces, gravity forces, and inertial forces in the model
and pump should be the same.

Different roughness of the pump and model impellers will cause difference in efficiency.

The rate of pump flow where the operating conditions are equal is therefore proportional
to its speed, the heads behave as the square of its speeds, the required motor power
output changes with the cube of its speed. In case the pump speed is increased in 2
times, the flow rate is increasing 2 times, head 4 times and necessary power 8 times.
The hydraulic efficiencies are equal, the pump efficiencies reduce slightly with speed.
