Parameters for the Selection of Pump
Some of the parameters that decide the selection of pump are:
•
Pressure and capacity of liquid being handled
•Speed of rotation and power requirement
•
Properties such as viscosity" corrosiveness etc of fluid
•Availability of space for positioning of pump

Centrifugal Pumps
Centrifugal Pump
can be defined as a mechanical device used to transfer liquid• $onverts the energy provided by a prime mover" such as an electric motor"
Working of Centrifugal Pump
$entrifugal pumps wor%s on principle of centrifugal force.
• It has a rotating impeller also %nown as a blade that is immersed in the
liquid.
• &iquid enters the pump near the a#is of the impeller and the rotating
impeller sweeps the liquid out toward the ends of the impeller blades at high pressure

Components of Pump
Impeller is classified into three types depending upon impeller vanes
• For#ar" $anes: -anes are in the direction of motion of impeller • %ack#ar" $anes: -anes are opposite to the direction of motion of
impeller
• &a"ial $anes: -anes are straight
Components of Centrifugal Pump
'. Casing
is a stationary part of the pump that receives the fluid being pump by the impeller$asing generally are two types:
•. $olute Casing:
It is used for a higher head. A volute is a curved funnel increasing in area to the discharge port.
•. Circular Casing:
It is used for low head and high capacity. It has stationary diffusion vanes surrounding the impeller periphery that convert velocity energy to
pressure energy. Volute
Suction Impeller

provides energy to the impeller. It can be electric motor "steam engine or gasoline engine.Pump Configuration
Pump may be connected in series or parallel.
1. Series Pump
Pump is said to be connected in series if the discharge of one pump is connected to the suction side of a second pump.
Pump Configuration
'. Parallel Pump
wo or more pumps are connected to a common discharge line" and share the same suction conditions
