Pumps and Pumping by Ion I. Ionel Pdf

This book addresses itself to two major problems: the increasing demand for water and the increasing limitations on energy use. Within the general framework of problems regarding pumps and pumping installations, attention is focussed on variable-speed pumps. The book considers all aspects of pumps and pumping systems theory. The first four chapters cover the theory of pump operation and control, and with the phenomenon of cavitation. The next three chapters treat the computations and operation of a pumping system in both continuous and discontinuous flow conditions, as well as the computation methods and control of water hammer by means of automatic hydraulic valves. Chapters 8 to 13 deal with the theory and structure of automatically controlled pumps, and with the speed regulation systems of the electric motors driving the pumps. The last chapter analyses optimal schemes for fixed- and variable-speed pump installations for various typical applications and gives associated operation diagrams. Throughout the book, numerous tables and diagrams support the written text.

Working Guide to Pump and Pumping Stations by E. Shashi Menon Pdf

Working Guide to Pumps and Pumping Stations: Calculations and Simulations discusses the application of pumps and pumping stations used in pipelines that transport liquids. It provides an introduction to the basic theory of pumps and how pumps are applied to practical situations using examples of simulations, without extensive mathematical analysis. The book begins with basic concepts such as the types of pumps used in the industry; the properties of liquids; the performance curve; and the Bernoullis equation. It then looks at the factors that affect pump performance and the various methods of calculating pressure loss in piping systems. This is followed by discussions of pump system head curves; applications and economics of centrifugal pumps and pipeline systems; and pump simulation using the software PUMPCALC. In most cases, the theory is explained and followed by solved example problems in both U.S. Customary System (English) and SI (metric) units. Additional practice problems are provided in each chapter as further exercise. This book was designed to be a working guide for engineers and technicians dealing with centrifugal pumps in the water, petroleum, oil, chemical, and process industries. Calculations for their selection, sizing and power output Case studies based on the author’s 35 years of field experience Covers all types of pumps Simplified models and simulations

Fire Fighting Pumping Systems at Industrial Facilities by Dennis P. Nolan Pdf

Written from the perspective of industrial users, this is the only book that describes how to install an effective firewater pumping system in a pragmatic and budget-conscious way rather than with purely the regulatory framework in mind. Based on the wide-ranging industrial experience of the author, this book is also the only one that deals with the particular risks and requirements of off-shore facilities. This book takes the reader beyond the prescriptive requirements of the fire code (NFPA, UL) and considers how to make the best choice of design for the budget available as well as how to ensure the other components of the pumping system and supporting services are optimized. The only alternative to guides written by regulatory enforcement bodies, this book is uniquely practical and objective – demonstrating how and why the standards need to be met Covers a wide range of industries, including those with exceptional requirements such as off-shore petroleum facilities and chemical plants Written by someone who has been responsible for the safety of large numbers of workers and billions of dollars worth of equipment, for those in similarly responsible positions
