  11. Pipe Routing Exercise • Form groups of two. • Draw a three dimensional routing for pipe from the steam header to the feed tank on both the plan view and the layout view.

  12. Size the Pump • Determine optimum pipe size. • Determine pressure drop through pipe run. 200 ft globe valve check valve 150 ft 100 gpm

  13. Optimum Pipe Diameter The optimum pipe diameter gives the least total cost for annual pumping power and fixed costs. As D , fixed costs , but pumping power costs .

  14. Optimum Optimum Pipe Diameter Total Cost Annualized Capital Cost Pumping Power Cost

  15. Example • Two methods to determine the optimum diameter: Velocity guidelines and Nomograph. • Example: What is the optimum pipe diameter for 100 gpm water.

  16. Using Velocity Guidelines • Velocity = 3-10 ft/s = flow rate/area • Given a flow rate (100 gpm), solve for area. • Area = (/4)D2, solve for optimum D. • Optimum pipe diameter = 2.6-3.6 in. Select standard size, nominal 3 in. pipe.

  17. 3.3 in optimum diameter Nomograph -Convert gpm to cfm  13.4 cfm. -Find cfm on left axis. -Find density (62 lb/ft3) on right axis. -Draw a line between points. -Read optimum diameter from middle axis.

  18. Practice Problem • Find the optimum pipe diameter for 100 ft3 of air at 40 psig/min. • A = (s/50ft)(min/60 s)(100 ft3/min) = 0.033 ft2 • 0.033 ft2 = 3.14d2/4 • d = 2.47 in

  19. Piping Guidelines • Slope to drains. • Add cleanouts (Ts at elbows) frequently. • Add flanges around valves for maintenance. • Use screwed fitting only for 1.5 in or less piping. • Schedule 40 most common.

  20. Calculating the Pressure Drop through a Pipe Run • Use the article Estimating pipeline head loss from Chemical Processing (pg 9-12). • P = (/144)(Z+[v22-v12]/2g+hL) • Typically neglect velocity differences for subsonic velocities. • hL = head loss due to 1) friction in pipe, and 2) valves and fittings. • hL(friction) = c1fLq2/d5

  21. c1 = conversion constant from Table 1 = 0.0311. • f = friction factor from Table 6 = 0.018. • L = length of pipe = 200 ft + 150 ft = 350 ft. • q = flow rate = 100 gpm. • d = actual pipe diameter of 3” nominal from Table 8 = 3.068 in . • hL due to friction = 7.2 ft of liquid head

  22. Loss Due to Fittings • K= 0.5 entrance • K = 1.0 exit • K=f(L/d)=(0.018)(20) flow through tee • K=3[(0.018)(14)] elbows • K=0.018(340) globe • K=0.018(600) check valve Sum K = 19.5

  23. hL due to fittings = c3Ksumq2/d4 = 5.7 ft of liquid head loss due to fittings. • hLsum=7.2 + 5.7 ft of liquid head loss • Using Bernoulli Equation P = (/144)(Z+[v22-v12]/2g+hLsum) P = ( /144)(150+0+12.9)= 70.1 psi due mostly to elevation. Use P to size pump. elevation velocity friction and fittings

  27. Pumps – Moving Liquids • Centrifugal • Positive displacement • Reciprocating: fluid chamber stationary, check valves • Rotary: fluid chamber moves

  28. Centrifugal Pumps

  29. Centrifugal Pump Impeller

  30. Positive Displacement: Reciprocating • Piston: up to 50 atm • Plunger: up to 1,500 atm • Diaphragm: up to 100 atm, ideal for corrosive fluids • Efficiency 40-50% for small pumps, 70-90% for large pumps

  31. Positive Displacement: Reciprocating (plunger)

  32. Positive Displacement: Rotary • Gear, lobe, screw, cam, vane • For viscous fluids up to 200 atm • Very close tolerances

  33. Positive Displacement: Rotary

  34. Comparisons: Centrifugal • larger flow rates • not self priming • discharge dependent of downstream pressure drop • down stream discharge can be closed without damage • uniform pressure without pulsation • direct motor drive • less maintenance • wide variety of fluids

  35. Comparisons: Positive Displacement • smaller flow rates • higher pressures • self priming • discharge flow rate independent of pressure – utilized for metering of fluids • down stream discharge cannot be closed without damage – bypass with relief valve required • pulsating flow • gear box required (lower speeds) • higher maintenance

  36. Advantages simple and cheap uniform pressure, without shock or pulsation direct coupling to motor discharge line may be closed can handle liquid with large amounts of solids no close metal-to-metal fits no valves involved in pump operation maintenance costs are lower Disadvantages cannot be operated at high discharge pressures must be primed maximum efficiency holds for a narrow range of operating conditions cannot handle viscous fluids efficiently Centrifugal Pumps

  37. Moving Gases • Compression ratio = Pout/Pin • Fans: large volumes, small discharge pressure • Blowers: compression ratio 3-4, usually not cooled • Compressors: compression ratio >10, usually cooled. • Centrifugal (often multistage) • Positive displacement

  38. Fan Impellers

  39. Two-lobe Blower

  40. Reciprocating Compressor

  41. Centrifugal Pump Symbols

  42. Pump Curves For a given pump • The pressure produced at a given flow rate increases with increasing impeller diameter. • Low flow rates at high head, high flow rates at high head. • Head is sensitive to flow rate at high flow rates. • Head insensitive to flow rate at lower flow rates.

  43. Pump Curve- used to determine which pump to purchase.- provided by the manufacturer.

  44. Low flow at high head Pressure increases with diameter Head sensitive to flow at high flow rates Pump Curve

  45. NPSH and Cavitation • NPSH = Net Positive Suction Head • Frictional losses at the entrance to the pump cause the liquid pressure to drop upon entering the pump. • If the the feed is saturated, a reduction in pressure will result in vaporization of the liquid. • Vaporization = bubbles, large volume changes, damage to the pump (noise and corrosion).

  46. Pressure Profile in the Pump

  47. NPSH • To install a pump, the actual NPSH must be equal to or greater than the required NPSH, which is supplied by the manufacturer. • Typically, NPSH required for small pumps is 2-4 psi, and for large pumps is 22 psi. • To calculate actual NPSH… NPSHactual= Pinlet-P* (vapor pressure) Pinlet = P(top of tank, atmospheric) + gh - 2fLeqV2/D

  48. What if NPSHactual < NPSHrequired? INCREASE NPSHactual • cool liquid at pump inlet (T decreases, P* decreases) • increase static head (height of liquid in feed tank) • increase feed diameter (reduces velocity, reduces frictional losses) (standard practice)
