Pump And Formula for calculations - Need Help Please

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on calculating pump and hydraulic system requirements, emphasizing the importance of understanding system specifications such as flow rate and head loss. It is established that pumps generate flow rather than pressure, with the piping system creating pressure through resistance. Key resources mentioned include a pressure drop calculator at http://www.xs4all.nl/%7Ekostermw/dP/ and informative websites like www.mcnallyinstitute.com and www.pumpworld.com. For further assistance, www.lightmypump.com offers tutorials and calculator applets.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of hydraulic systems and their components
  • Knowledge of pump curves and flow rate calculations
  • Familiarity with head loss in piping systems
  • Basic skills in using online calculators for pressure drop
NEXT STEPS
  • Research pump selection criteria based on flow rate and head loss
  • Learn how to interpret pump curves for optimal performance
  • Explore advanced hydraulic modeling techniques
  • Investigate the use of software tools for hydraulic system design
USEFUL FOR

Engineers, hydraulic system designers, and anyone involved in pump selection and hydraulic calculations will benefit from this discussion.

You will get the pump pressure from the pump curve and knowing the flow. If you are looking for required head or pressure, then it will totally depend on the system and the required flow.
 
You have to start with your system. You have to know what your piping system will provide in terms of head loss. Your piping and flow rate will dictate the pump selection. Pumps do not produce pressure, they produce flow. Your piping system creates the pressure as a result of resistance to the flow.
