WHAT ARE PUMPS?
Pumps are machines that are used to increase the total energy level
of liquid stream
CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS
PUMPS ARE USED FOR
Moving large volumes of liquid from/to storage
tanks or into pipeline
Moving process fluid and circulating cooling water
Providing water for fire fighting…etc.

CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS
CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS OPERATING PRINCIPAL
The two main components of a
centrifugal pump are the impeller and
the volute.
The impeller produces liquid velocity
and the volute forces the liquid to
discharge from the pump converting
velocity to pressure.

Leakage along pump shaft cane be
minimized by Packing and Mechanical Seal.
Packing is used to minimize leakage along
the shaft by filling the stuffing box but it
can’t prevent leakage by 100%.
Packing on shaft sleeve

Mechanical Seal is used when NO
leakage is required specially in hazard
cases mechanical seal shall be used.

CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS BEARING LUBRICATION
Proper Bearing lubrication is
important to prevent overheat, rust and
corrosion
OIL RING LUBRICATION
CONSTANT LEVEL OILER
Heat generation is a problem in
centrifugal pump particularly in
pumps moving high temperature
fluids, excessive heat is most
damaging at bearing locations,
water jackets are used here.

CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS PERFORMANCE CURVES
Vapor Pressure
Pressure
Vapor pressure is the pressure required to keep
a liquid in the liquid state.
VAPOR PRESSURE, CAPITATION & NPSH
Cavitation occurs when a fluid's operational
pressure drops below it's vapor pressure
causing gas pockets and bubbles to form and
collapse.
NPSH stands for Net Positive Suction Head, and reflects the energy left
in a fluid when the fluid is captured by the impeller and flung out to the
casing. There are two expressions for NPSH: NPSHAvailable and
NPSHRequired
NPSHAvailable is a function of the system in which the pump operates.
NPSHRequired is a function of the pump design.
NPSHavail = hs - hvpa + hst - hfs

POSITIVE DISPLACEMENT PUMPS
Positive displacement pumps are used for:-
POSITIVE DISPLACEMENT PUMPS
Low volume applications.
High pressures are required to move fluids.
POSITIVE DISPLACEMENT PUMPS OPERATING PRINCIPAL
A positive displacement pump has an
expanding cavity on the suction side of the
pump and a decreasing cavity on the
discharge side.
Liquid is allowed to flow into the pump as the
cavity on the suction side expands and the
liquid is forced out of the discharge as the
cavity collapses.
RECIPROCATING PUMPS
Reciprocating pumps types are :-
Piston Pumps
Plunger Pumps
Diaphragm Pumps
Diaphragm pump Piston pump
Plunger pump
Safety relief valve
Pulsation dampener
Chemical injection pumps
Internal gear pumps
External gear pump
External gear pump - Fluid is carried
between gear teeth and is expelled by the
meshing of the gears which cooperate to
provide continuous sealing between the pump
inlet and outlet.
Internal gear pump - The outer gear
(rotor) drives the inner or idler gear on a
stationary pin. The gears create voids as
they come out of mesh and liquid flows into
the cavities. As the gears come back into
mesh, the volume is reduced and the liquid is
forced.
Rotary Pumps
Screw pump
Archimedes Screw
Progressive cavity pump
Screw pumps
Screw pumps carry fluid in the spaces
between the screw threads. The fluid is
displaced axially as the screws mesh.
Single screw pumps - are commonly called
progressive cavity pumps. They have a rotor
with external threads and a stator with
internal threads. The rotor threads are
eccentric to the axis of rotation.
Multiple screw pumps - have multiple
external screw threads. These pumps may
be timed or un-timed
Axial piston pump
Lobe pump
Radial piston pump
Lobe pumps
Fluid is carried between rotor lobes which
cooperate to provide continuous sealing
between the pump inlet and outlet.
Piston pumps
Axial piston pump - depends on
beveled “wobble” plate or equivalent
off-center linkage system to
reciprocating pistons.
Radial piston pump – depends on
eccentric stator (or rotor) to give
reciprocating action.
