3 .0 Introduction UM is designed to provide a simplified structured methodology for sizing centrifugal pumps installed in conventional piping systems handling non-compressible fluids. The design volumetric flow, suction and discharge pipe material specifications and pipe diameters are selected by the designer based on the process conditions, fluids to be handled and economic velocities. ipe material is specified and absolute roughness is selected. The friction factor is determined by refering to the ipe Friction Chart, Figure 3.7 in Coulson and Richardson, Volume (). The look up value is entered manually. The equivalent length of fittings and valves are entered allowing the suction and discharge pipe pressure drops to be determined. The pump head required is calculated to which a design safety factor may be applied..0 Data Entry Rules Refer Appendix I for UM Report Format Data input cells are blue. Cells with comments are highlighted by the red triangle. age 3 of 7

4 4.0 Model Calculations The following basic calculations are used in UM: The cross sectional area, A(m ), of circular pipe with an internal diameter, d(m), is given by: A d 4 For a specified volumetric flowrate, Q(m 3 /s), the fluid velocity, u(m/s) in a pipe is given by: Q u A The dimensionless Reynolds Number, Re, predicts the flow regime conditions for a flowing fluid of density,(kg/m 3 ), and viscosity, (kg/m.s), is defined by: d u Re For a pipe with absolute roughness, (mm), the relative roughness, r is defined by: r d mm The dimensionless friction factor,, is defined by Re u There are two dimensionless friction factors considered, namely, the Moody, f, and the Fanning, f, which are related as follows: f f 8 The friction loss per metre, f(n/m.m), is calculated from: u f 4 d The friction loss, f(n/m ), in the suction pipe, L(m), including valves and fittings with a total equivalent length of LE is given by: u f 4 L L d E age 4 of 7

5 4.0 Model Calculations (Cont.) The entry loss at the pump, fp(n/m ), is taken into consideration and is given by: 0.5 d f u f The suction pressure, s(n/m ), at a pump inlet with an inlet equipment pressure, 0(N/m ), and static head, z(m), is determined from: S 0 g z The suction pipe head loss, hf(m), due to friction is defined as follows: f f f hf g The net positive suction head(absolute), NSHa(m), available at the pump suction has to be adjusted for fluid vapour pressure and is derived from the following relationship: NSH a 0 g v f z h where g = gravitational acceleration (m/s ) hf = suction pipe friction head loss (m) z = height of liquid above pump inlet (m) 0 = pressure above liquid at pump suction (N/m ) v = vapour pressure of liquid at pump suction conditions (N/m ) f Notes: Fluid viscosity,, units are Ns/m = kg/m.s =.0 E03 c N/m = a =.0 E-05 bar mm wc = 9.8 ka Crane 40M uses Moody friction factor f which equals 8 Subscripts suction discharge age 5 of 7
