Thurston of Cornell University authored a 1961 American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) paper titled “Design of Suction Piping and Deaerator Storage Capacity to Protect Feed Pumps.” ...

Once a design is determined to have an adequate ... The water in the BFW pump suction line has a static head exerted on it by the level in the DA storage tank, preventing it from flashing immediately.

KSB GIW is leveraging its world-class foundry capabilities to meet the market demand for larger mill duty pumps.

Measurement of pump suction pressure and temperature ... concept behind this method is that if a pump is operating at design performance, field test data for pump speed, head, and flow will ...

It’s a design error; it needs to be like 10-20 ft. higher above the pump suction to provide more NPSH for startup.” “Let’s try opening the discharge valve a fraction of a turn, starting ...

This situation is not a problem if the design intent was based on a closed-loop cooling tower. Results: As noted above, when NPSH criteria is not met, the pump suction pressure will either be ...

Description: Armstrong Fluid Technology has introduced three larger sizes of Design Envelope End Suction Pumps, with permanent magnet motors up to 50hp that deliver energy savings and eliminate the ...
