Pumps

Bearings are mechanical components that reduce friction between moving parts and support loads. They come in various shapes and sizes, and each type has unique features and applications. In this blog post, we’ll discuss the most common types of bearings and their applications to help beginners understand their functions and …

Positive displacement pumps operate on a different principle than centrifugal pumps. Positive displacement pumps physically entrap a quantity of liquid at the suction of the pump and push that quantity out the discharge of the pump. A positive displacement pump is one in which a definite volume of liquid is …

Improper operation of centrifugal pumps can result in damage to the pump and loss of function of the system that the pump is installed in. It is helpful to know what conditions can lead to pump damage to allow better understanding of pump operating procedures and how the procedures aid …

Today we will discuss about (BFWP) boiler feed water pump working principle and operation of a boiler feed water pump. The boiler feed pump function is to supply pressurized feed water to the boilers to maintain the water inventory at various operating loads. Boiler feed water pumps are commonly centrifugal pumps. …

Centrifugal pump Components vary in design and construction from simple pumps with relatively few parts to extremely complicated pumps with hundreds of individual parts. Some of the most common components found in centrifugal pumps are wearing rings, stuffing boxes, packing, and lantern rings. Wearing Rings Centrifugal pumps contain rotating impellers …

Classification of Centrifugal Pump Centrifugal pumps are classified in several ways. Pumps may be classified: • in terms of energy conversions (volute type and diffuser vane ring type); • in terms of fluid flow through the pump (radial, mixed flow and axial flow); • as either single stage or multistage …

Introduction to Centrifugal pumps Centrifugal pumps are the most common type of pumps found in industrial applications. Centrifugal pumps enjoy widespread application partly due to their ability to operate over a wide range of flow rates and pump heads. The centrifugal pump, as the name implies, uses centrifugal force to transfer …
