HI Releases Rotodynamic Pump Guideline

Sept. 3, 2015
The Hydraulic Institute publishes the Hydraulic Institute Guideline for Rotodynamic Pump Efficiency Prediction HI 20.3–2015.

The Hydraulic Institute (HI) publishes the Hydraulic Institute Guideline for Rotodynamic Pump Efficiency Prediction HI 20.3–2015. The guideline is a tool for users, specifiers and purchasers of pumps to understand what variables, design and selection factors affect the efficiency of rotodynamic pumps.  Users will learn the application-specific design features that affect pump efficiency and how to calculate the normally attainable efficiency and uncertainty band for the following pump types:

·         Slurry, end suction

·         Solids-handling, end suction

·         Submersible sewage, end suction

·         Horizontal multistage & axially split diffuser type

·         ASME B73 chemical process

·         API end suction

·         Large, end suction

·         Double suction, API and other

·         Vertical turbine, mixed and axial flow, single and multistage diffuser type

The efficiencies shown in the guideline are those generally obtained using common manufacturing practices and are based on a survey of pump manufacturers. Only the best efficiency point (BEP) values are addresses in the guideline.
