Problem Solving - Centrifugal Pumps
www.stuartjohnsonco.comIt is critical that the net positive suction head available (NPSHa) in the system is greater than the net positive suction head required (NPSHr) by the pump. The value of NPSHa in the system is dependent upon the characteristic of the fluid being pumped, inlet piping, the location of the suction vessel, and the pressure applied to the fluid in ...
Bearings in centrifugal pumps - SKF
www.skf.comis the head at the pump inlet (suction) needed for the pump to satisfac-torily draw the fluid into the impeller. If the available head at the pump inlet, called net Positive Suction Head available (NPSH a), is less than the pump’s NPSH r, cavitation will occur and performance will be reduced. Cavitation is the phenomenon that oc-

www.fristam.deNPSH is the abbreviation for Net Positive Suction Head Besides the flow rate Q and the pump head H, the NPSH value is one of the most important characteristic parameter of a centrifugal pump. The NPSH value of the pump depends on the design and speed of the pump. The higher the speed of the pump, the higher the NPSH value will be.
Understanding Centrifugal Pump Curves
www.mgnewell.comrequired for a flow of 140 gpm with 40 ft head, the end of curve horsepower requires a 2.5 hp motor be used. NPSHr Curve The 3rd part of the pump curve is the Net Positive Suction Head Required (NPSHr) curve. The NPSHr curve provides information about the suction characteristics of the pump at different flows.

www.metropumps.comJun 08, 2011 · 5. Fixed throttle operation. Pumps throttled at a constant head and flow indicate excessive capacity. 6. Noisy pumps or valves. A noisy pump generally indicates cavitation from heavy throttling or insufficient net positive suction head available (NPSHa). Noisy control valves or bypass valves usually mean a higher pressure drop with a ...
