INTRODUCCIN
Este documento tiene como propsito guiarle en la seleccin de bombas de desplazamiento
positivo, un tema prctico e interesante que resulta ser de gran importancia para los
Ingenieros Mecnicos. Hemos insertado los catlogos de los fabricantes junto con otra
informacin necesaria y hemos complementado con problemas resueltos para que el estudio
de este material sea lo ms agradable posible.
Las bombas de desplazamiento positivo tienen como principio fundamental recoger paquetes
de fluido del puerto de succin, sellarlos y llevarlos al puerto de descarga a una presin que
puede ser tan alta como las caractersticas de construccin de la bomba lo permitan. La
principal clasificacin de las bombas de desplazamiento positivo depende del movimiento de
los miembros que producen la presin. Por un lado, estn las bombas reciprocantes que
aprovechan el movimiento alternativo de un pistn o un mbolo para desplazar el fluido. Por
otro lado, estn las bombas rotatorias, dentro de las que se incluyen elementos como aspas o
paletas, camisas flexibles (peristlticas), cavidades progresivas, 2 3 tornillos, engranajes
internos o externos, lbulos, entre otros.
Hemos incluido las siguientes bombas:

CAVIDADES PROGRESIVAS
(o Bombas Helicoidales de Rotor Excntrico)
En 1930, Ren Moineau, un pionero de la aviacin, mientras inventaba un compressor para
motores de reaccin, descubri que este principio tambin podra trabajar como un sistema
de bombeo. La Universidad de Pars le otorg un doctorado para su tesis en el nuevo
capsulismo. Su disertacin estableci el campo de trabajo para las Bombas de Cavidades
Progresivas. En 1932, Moineau asociado con Robert Bienaim del Grupo Gvelot, fundaron
PCM Pompes, la cual est extendida hoy a nivel mundial. (Visite PCM Pompes en
http://www.pcm-pump.com/)
Las bombas de cavidades progresivas estn compuestas
de dos piezas longitudinales en forma de hlice las cuales
se conocen como estator y rotor. El rotor es la pieza
interna, metlica, que est conformada por una sola
hlice. El Estator es la parte externa y est constituida
por una camisa de acero revestida internamente por una
goma o elastmero moldeado en forma de hlice que
engrana con la hlice del rotor.

El estator y el rotor son excntricos. El movimiento del rotor es combinado uno rotacional
sobre su propio eje y otro rotacional en direccin opuesta alrededor del eje del estator. La
geometra del conjunto es tal que forma una serie de cavidades idnticas y separadas entre s.
Cuando el rotor gira en el interior del estator, estas cavidades se desplazan axialmente desde
el fondo del estator hasta la descarga, de manera que se tiene un desplazamiento positivo en
cavidades progresivas.
Estas bombas pueden aplicarse para el bombeo de lquidos tan ligeros como el agua a lquidos
tan pesados como mieles, glucosa, etc. Son idneas para el bombeo de lquidos con slidos en
suspensin y lquidos de baja tensin superficial pues no agitan el producto. Su campo de
empleo se encuentra en aquellas aplicaciones donde la viscosidad del fluido bombeado hace
imposible el uso de bombas centrfugas, sin embargo, sus caractersticas de auto aspiracin
(Autocebantes), caudal uniforme y sin pulsaciones, alto poder de succin, elevada presin de
descarga, su capacidad para bombear productos slidos, su resistencia a la abrasin y otras
cualidades la han hecho interesante para otros campos de aplicaciones en los que se utilizan
bombas centrfugas o de otros tipos.
El catlogo de seleccin que usaremos para este tipo de
bombas es el de la empresa Moyno, que se puede descargar
desde la pgna www.moyno.com

ENGRANAJES INTERNOS
Medialuna
Los engranajes internos son excepcionalmente verstiles. Aunque a menudo son usadas en
lquidos ligeros como solventes y combustibles, sobresalen en la eficiencia de bombeo de
asfaltos, chocolates y adhesivos. El rango til de viscosidad de una bomba de engranajes
internos est entre 1 cP y 1.000.000 cP.
Adems de su amplio rango de viscosidad, tambin tienen un
amplio rango de temperatura, manejando lquidos hasta 400C.
Esto se debe a la distancia de contacto entre los dos engranajes,
la cual puede ser ajustada para acomodarse a altas temperaturas,
maximizando la eficiencia en el manejo de fluidos de altas
viscosidades y disminuyendo el desgaste.
La bomba de engranajes internos es no pulsante, autocebante y
puede trabajar en seco por cortos periodos de tiempo. Tambin
es birotacional, por lo que la misma bomba puede ser usada para
cargar y descargar recipientes. Dado que las bombas de engranajes internos tienen slo dos
partes mviles, son seguras, sencillas de operar y de mantener.

Cmo funcionan?
1. El lquido entra al puerto de succin entre el rotor (engranaje exterior grande) y los
dientes del engranaje interior pequeo. Las flechas indican la direccin de la bomba y
del lquido.
2. El lquido viaja a travs de la bomba entre los dientes del engranaje dentro del
engranaje. El perfil creciente divide el lquido y acta como un sello entre los puertos
de succin y de descarga.
3. El cabezal de la bomba est casi inundado justo antes de forzar el lquido en el puerto
de descarga.
4. Los dientes del rotor y el engranaje exterior aseguran un sello completamente
equidistante de los puertos de succin y descarga. Este sello obliga al lquido a salir
por el puerto de descarga.

Las bombas de medialuna que seleccionaremos son de la empresa


Viking Pump, Inc., una empresa de IDEX Corporation. Puede visitarla
en www.vikingpump.com.

LBULOS
Las bombas de lbulos son rotativas de engranajes
externos, que cambian un poco su configuracin con los
engranajes externos convencionales, dado que slo tienen
dos o tres dientes (lbulos) que son ms anchos y ms
redondeados. Su accionamiento es independiente y se
hace fuera de la cmara de bombeo.
El principio de funcionamiento se basa en un engranaje
conductor y uno conducido que transportan el fluido por
las cmaras formadas entre la carcasa y el engranaje,
viajando de la zona de menor presin al puerto de
descarga. Los sellos de cada paquete de fluido se logran en
la unin de los dos engranajes y de cada uno de ellos con la
carcasa.

Las bombas de lbulos ofrecen una mayor capacidad volumtrica (Cantidad de lquido
bombeado en cada revolucin) cuando se comparan con bombas de otro tipo. Tienen el
inconveniente de ser ms costosas, pero son adecuadas para trabajo con fluidos sensibles al
efecto del esfuerzo tangencial (cizalle). Son excelentes para el manejo de fluidos con gases o
partculas atrapadas y su uso en la industria alimenticia es bastante extendido.
Las bombas de lbulos que seleccionaremos en ste
documento son de la marca Q-Pumps, la cual puede
visitar en www.q-pumps.com

PALETAS
Como se muestra en la figura, las bombas de paletas usan un rotor con paletas deslizantes, las
cuales arrastran el lquido entre las aspas, desde el puerto de succin hasta el de descarga. En
cada paleta actan tres fuerzas: (1) La fuerza centrfuga de la rotacin del rotor, (2) La
reaccin de la carcasa en el punto de contacto y (3) La presin del fluido que entra a travs de
las ranuras y acta en la parte inferior de las paletas. Cada revolucin de una bomba de
paletas desplaza una cantidad de volumen constante, la variacin de la presin slo tiene un
efecto mnimo sobre el caudal. Dentro de sus ventajas se encuentra una alta eficiencia
volumtrica y por lo tanto, una disminucin de la energa consumida por la bomba. Adems se
usan en aplicaciones muy variadas, desde la industria alimenticia (para las que se construyen
de acero inoxidable), hasta el manejo de compuestos orgnicos voltiles, fluidos abrasivos y
de alta viscosidad.

Las bombas que seleccionaremos son Blackmer, una empresa de la


Divisin Dover Corp. (www.blackmer.com)

TORNILLOS
Estas bombas pueden ser de dos o tres tornillos.
La rotacin del eje hace que
paquetes de fluido de volumen
constante se desplacen en direccin
axial, desde la entrada hasta la
salida. Cada ciclo del tornillo
proporciona una etapa de presin.
Las trayectorias opuestas del flujo
ofrecen un balance hidrulico axial
completo. Los engranajes de tiempo mantienen la holgura entre las hlices de bombeo, de tal
modo que no se toque unos a otros y que, por consiguiente, puedan bombear agua y fluidos
ligeros, as como tambin petrleo crudo pesado, siendo adems muy tolerantes a la
presencia del gas en el petrleo.
Se recomienda el uso de bombas de tornillos para sistemas que requieran corte mnimo de
fluidos, bombeo de petrleo crudo que no contenga mucho gas, fluidos con concentraciones
de arena de hasta un 5% y operaciones que requieran funcionamiento en seco de corta
duracin.
Las bombas que seleccionaremos de tipo Tornillo, sern del
fabricante IMO, una subsidiaria de Colfax Corporation. Vistela en
www.imo-pump.com

Sobre bombas reciprocantes nos extenderemos haciendo uso del captulo homlogo del libro
Bombas Seleccin, uso y Mantenimiento de Kenneth. Esperamos que este catlogo les sea
muy til y que les gue en el proceso de aprendizaje de la asignatura.

cavidades progresivas

BOMBAS DE CAVIDADES PROGRESIVAS

Principio de Funcionamiento
Una bomba de cavidades progresivas es una bomba de desplazamiento positivo. Esto significa que
un volumen muy preciso es desplazado en cada revolucin. Ocasionalmente es referida como una
bomba de tornillo. El rotor, de una simple hlice, gira excntricamente en el estator, que posee
una doble hlice. Esta combinacin de simple/doble hlice crea cavidades que obligan a desplazar
al lquido hacia la descarga, cada vez que el rotor gira. Esta es la razn por la cual su diseo es ms
comnmente conocido como cavidad progresiva.

Capacidades y Caractersticas
Las bombas de cavidades progresivas ofrecen ms capacidades y caractersticas que cualquier otro
tipo de bomba de desplazamiento positivo. A continuacin se sealan stas:
- Altas presiones de descarga, hasta 1500 psi.
- Atlas capacidades de caudal, hasta 2400 gpm.
- Capacidad de manejo de lquidos viscosos, hasta 1.000.000 cP
- Capacidad de manejo de lquidos abrasivos
- Flujo no pulsatorio
- Bajo NPSH requerido
- El flujo es directamente proporcional a la velocidad
- La presin de descarga es independiente de la velocidad
- No posee vlvulas internas
- Operacin muy silenciosa
- Es reversible
- No emulsiona ni maltrata a los fluidos a operar
- Capacidad de transporte de slidos de hasta 2.8
- Gran capacidad de succin negativa, hasta 28 pies (9 m)

- El flujo es slo ligeramente afectado por cambios de presin
NOTA IMORTANTE:

Se recomienda tener en mente todas estas caractersticas, y revisarlas


peridicamente

Cmo seleccionar una bomba Moyno?


Para seleccionar una bomba Moyno se deben tener en cuenta los siguientes nueve pasos:
PASO 1:
PASO 2:
PASO 3:
PASO 4:
PASO 5:
PASO 6:
PASO 7:
PASO 8:
PASO 9:

Obtener los datos de la aplicacin.


Determinar el modelo bsico de la bomba.
Escoger los materiales apropiados de construccin.
Determinar el menor tamao de la bomba en funcin del tamao de partcula.
Ajustar el tamao de la bomba en funcin de la viscosidad y la abrasin.
Determinar el nmero de etapas de la bomba.
Determinar la velocidad de la bomba.
Determinar el tamao de la caja de rodamientos.
Determinar la potencia requerida.

El proceso de seleccin de una bomba Moyno es un poco ms complejo que el de otras bombas,
como por ejemplo las centrfugas, neumticas de diafragma, etc. Sin embargo, una apropiada
utilizacin de estos nueve pasos, asegurar una seleccin adecuada de la bomba ms correcta.
PASO 1:
OBTENER TODOS LOS DATOS DE LA APLICACIN
El primer y ms importante paso es conseguir todos los datos disponibles de la aplicacin
solicitada. Debemos conseguir las caractersticas del lquido a bombear, as como las condiciones
de servicio requeridas, que se detallan a continuacin:
Caractersticas del fluido a bombear
-

Nombre del lquido


Gravedad especfica
Viscosidad (cP, cSt, SSU)
Grado de abrasin
Grado de acidez (pH)
Tamao de partculas slidas.
% de slidos en suspensin
Temperatura.

Condiciones de servicio requeridas


- Caudal o capacidad (gpm, lt/hr, m3/s)
- Presin de succin (psi, bar, Kg/cm2)
- Presin de descarga
- Presin diferencial
- Presin de vaporizacin
- NPSH disponible (pies, m)
- Nmero de horas de operacin
diarias
- Tipo de servicio (intermitente o
permanente)
- Materiales de construccin exigidos.

PASO 2:
DETERMINAR LA SERIE BSICA DE LA BOMBA
Este paso se refiere a la seleccin de la configuracin ms apropiada de la serie de bomba
dependiendo de la aplicacin especfica. Esta primera seleccin es importante porque el nmero
de etapas, capacidades y materiales de fabricacin disponibles sern afectados por el modelo
escogido. Podremos seleccionar entre las siguientes series:
- Serie 2000
- Serie 1000
- Serie 500
- Serie Sanitaria
- Serie L

En la seleccin del modelo bsico tambin se incluye la determinacin del tipo de succin, que
podr ser:
- Succin estndar (usado para lquidos que fluyen libremente)
- Succin con tolva y gusano alimentador ( usado para lquidos que no fluyen libremente)
Existe una opcin en algunos modelos: Con arrastrador adicional (para materiales semi-secos)
PASO 3:
ESCOGER LOS MATERIALES DE CONSTRUCCIN
Los materiales de construccin afectan a la seleccin de la bomba, debido a que los materiales
disponibles tienen diferentes propiedades. Por ejemplo, sus propiedades fsicas los pueden hacer
resistentes a la abrasin y sus propiedades qumicas los pueden hacer resistentes a la corrosin.
Cuando manejamos lquidos para consumo humano, se hace necesario emplear materiales
sanitarios aprobados por la FDA (Food and Drug Administration, del gobierno americano).
La mejor recomendacin sobre los materiales de construccin a seleccionar en la bomba debe
venir del propio usuario.
La Tabla No. 1 nos muestra los materiales de construccin estndar usados en las bombas
Moyno, y su codificacin correspondiente. La Tabla No. 1A y No. 2 nos indican algunas

PASO 5:

AJUSTAR EL TAMAO DE LA BOMBA EN FUNCIN DE LA VISCOSIDAD Y LA


ABRASIN
En este paso determinaremos el tamao del elemento de bombeo ms apropiado dependiendo de
la viscosidad y del grado de abrasin del fluido.
Abrasin: La abrasin produce desgaste en las bombas. La mejor forma para minimizar el desgaste
y prolongar la vida til de una bomba Moyno es seleccionar la bomba ms grande posible que
opere a la menor velocidad, aunque ello no siempre sea la solucin ms econmica.
El grado de abrasin est determinado mayormente por las siguientes caractersticas:
- El tamao mximo de las partculas.
- La forma de los slidos.
- La dureza de los slidos.
- El porcentaje de concentracin de los slidos

+ Por encima de la viscosidad especificada, la eficiencia volumtrica ser menor que 100% a las mximas RPM mostradas.

Esta tabla fue compilada de la curva Moyno PEC 449 usando una eficiencia volumtrica mnima del 50%. Para una
determinacin ms precisa de la velocidad y eficiencia, por favor consulte la curva.

El grado de abrasin de un lquido se puede clasificar de la siguiente forma:


- No abrasivo (agua, polmeros, aceites, lubricantes)
- Ligero (lechada de cal, aguas residuales, mieles)
- Mediano (lodos de caliza, chocolate, jugo de maracuy)
- Pesado (lodos de perforacin, barbotina, cachaza)
Viscosidad: Es una propiedad que tienen los lquidos que genera una resistencia al flujo. La ms
comn de sus unidades es el Centipoise, como viscosidad absoluta; y el Centistoke, como
viscosidad cinemtica (cSt = cP / G.E.). Mientras ms viscoso es un lquido, se deber operar la
bomba a menores velocidades, con el propsito de permitir fluir al lquido dentro de la bomba.
Podemos clasificar a los fluidos de la siguiente forma:
1. Fluidos Newtonianos: Que mantienen su viscosidad con la agitacin.
2. Fluidos No-Newtonianos: Que no mantienen su viscosidad con la agitacin.
a. Dependientes del tiempo: La viscosidad es afectada en un tiempo determinado de
agitacin.
i. Tixotrpicos: La viscosidad disminuye al aumentar la agitacin del lquido
en un tiempo determinado
ii. Reopcticos: La viscosidad aumenta al aumentar la agitacin en un tiempo
determinado
b. Independientes del tiempo, la viscosidad no es afectada con el tiempo en que el
fluido es agitado.
i. Seudoplsticos: La viscosidad disminuye cuando aumenta la agitacin
ii. Dilatantes: La viscosidad aumenta cuando aumenta la agitacin
iii. Plsticos: La viscosidad disminuye cuando aumenta la agitacin, pero slo
despus que un esfuerzo inicial es sobrepasado.
La tabla No. 4 nos muestra la velocidad mxima recomendada y el mximo caudal disponible para
cada tamao de bomba, en funcin del grado de abrasin del lquido.
La tabla No. 5 nos muestra la mxima velocidad recomendada y el mximo caudal disponible para
cada tamao de bomba en funcin de la viscosidad del lquido.
Con la curva PEC-449 determinamos la eficiencia volumtrica y ajustamos la velocidad.
PASO 6:
DETERMINAR EL NMERO DE ETAPAS
Para determinar el nmero de etapas de un rotor se debe dividir la presin de descarga con la
mxima presin recomendada por etapa para lquidos abrasivos, como se muestra en la Tabla No.
6.
PASO 7:
DETERMINAR LA VELOCIDAD DE LA BOMBA
Ahora que es conocida la serie y tamao de la bomba, as como el nmero de etapas, podremos
determinar la velocidad de las curvas de performance. Despus de localizar la curva de
performance especfica, tomando en cuenta las recomendaciones de las tablas 4 y 5 para lquidos
abrasivos y viscosos, nos ubicamos verticalmente con la presin demandada hasta interceptar con
el caudal requerido. Esa interseccin ser el punto de operacin. Imaginariamente debemos ubicar
la curva de velocidad que pasa por nuestro punto de operacin, siendo sta la velocidad terica.

En caso que el Lquido sea viscoso, debemos acudir a la curva PEC 499 a fin de ajustar la velocidad
por eficiencia volumtrica y encontrar la velocidad real. Caso contrario, la velocidad terica ser la
real.

SELECCIN DE LA CAJA DE RODAMIENTOS
Con el propsito de determinar la potencia requerida para todos los modelos, excepto para la
Serie 1000, se debe escoger la caja de rodamientos apropiada en funcin del tamao de
rotor/estator escogido. La Tabla No. 7 nos muestra el tamao de la caja de rodamientos en
funcin de la presin de operacin, la cual debe ser usada para efectuar una seleccin primaria.
Luego de obtener la potencia requerida por la bomba (paso 9), se debe revisar si la caja de
rodamientos seleccionada es satisfactoria. Ver tabla No. 8.

PASO 9:
DETERMINAR LA POTENCIA REQUERIDA
La potencia total solicitada por la bomba Moyno puede ser determinada de la curva de
performance y de la potencia adicional requerida, que se encuentra en la pgina de atrs de cada
curva de performance. El proceso para determinar la potencia total se detalla a continuacin:
a) Ubicar la potencia requerida por el estator/rotor, de acurdo a la velocidad ajustada, en el
lado derecho de la curva de performance. A esta potencia se le debe sumar la potencia de
la caja de rodamientos, ubicada en la parte superior de la curva de performance. Luego se
debe comparar sta con la potencia mnima recomendada, ubicada en la parte superior de
la curva, y tomar la mayor de ambas.
b) Si estamos frente a una aplicacin de lquidos calientes se deben usar los factores
multiplicadores a la potencia mnima recomendada, que se hallan en la parte inferior de la
pgina posterior de la curva de performance. Para estatores de nitrilo, caucho natural y de
EPDM se recomienda usar rotores de dimetro reducido cuando la temperatura es
superior a 70 C, y de 110 C para estatores de Viton.
c) Si estamos en presencia de lquidos viscosos o abrasivos se deben usar las tablas ubicadas
en la parte posterior de las curvas de performance, y adicionar este valor de potencia al
valor obtenido en el paso A. En caso que el fluido sea abrasivo y viscoso, se debe adicionar
el mayor de los dos valores (No se deben adicionar ambos!)
El valor de potencia obtenido en el paso C, ser la potencia total requerida por la bomba Moyno
que hemos seleccionado.

CORRECCIONES DE LA POTENCIA
Las curvas performance que ofrece Moyno tienen en la parte posterior los aditivos que
se deben tener en cuenta a la hora de calcular la potencia del motor, debido a la
temperatura del fluido, su abrasividad y su viscosidad. En este compendio, las
correcciones de abrasividad y temperatura fueron agrupadas en una tabla al final de las
curvas de cada serie con el fin de disminuir el volumen del mismo. As por ejemplo, el
modelo C de la serie 1000 que tiene la siguiente informacin en la parte posterior,

PUMP SELECTION

MOYNO 500 PUMPS


The tables presented on these pages are designed to
guide you in selecting the proper 500 pump to solve
your fluid handling problem. Detailed specifications are
available from your Distributor.

abrasives, you need a pump with maximum pressure


ratings that are twice the operating pressure. For heavy
abrasives, maximum pump pressure capabilities should
be four to six times greater than operating pressure.

Fluid handling system parameters are the


determining factors in choosing the proper pump series
for a particular application. Static heads, line and fitting
losses, fluid viscosity at pumping temperatures and
other system characteristics must be examined to
determine flow rates and pressures required from the
pump. Specifically, you will need to evaluate the
following elements:

Table 1. Pump Speeds for Viscous & Abrasive Fluid

1. Capacity the flow rate desired in gallons per


minute (GPM).

Pump Performance. After determining any RPM


limits due to viscosity and/or abrasion considerations,
Table 2, Pump Performance, may be used to select
the appropriate model for your application. Basic flow
and pressure Capabilities are listed for each model, and
the model number defines the operation characteristics
of the pump. The data in Table 2 is presented in terms
of performance of the pump in water at 1750 RPM. If
your application requires a lower RPM due to viscosity
or abrasion considerations, it would be helpful to
convert your desired flow to an equivalent flow of water
at 1750 RPM as follows:

2. Pressure Differential the difference in suction and


discharge pressure requirements, expressed in pounds
per square inch (PSI).
3. Temperature maximum temperature of the fluid
being pumped in degrees Fahrenheit (F).
4. Viscosity the resistance to flow, expressed in
centipoise (CP). Seconds Saybolt Universal (SSU) units
of measurement can be converted to approximate CP
by using this equation: CP=SSU/5 x Specific Gravity.
5. Abrasion abrasive characteristics of the fluid being
pumped. These should be classified in broad terms in
order to select appropriate pump speed and materials
of construction. Classifications are:
a. None clean and uncontaminated fluid
b. Light contaminated or dirty water
c. Medium clay and gypsum slurries
d. Heavy heavy slurries, emery dust and lapping
compounds
Viscosity. As fluid viscosity increases, pump RPM
must be reduced to prevent decreasing volumetric
efficiency due to cavitation of the fluid. This is a function
of flow velocity through the pump, rather than a total
flow rate from the pump. The flow velocity and
corresponding RPM reduction is the same on all
models of 500 pumps. Table 1 indicates maximum
RPM levels that should be attempted to maintain
volumetric efficiency.
Abrasion. Both pump speed and pressure should be
reduced when handling abrasive fluids to ensure
maximum pump life. Table 1 shows proper RPM for the
broad abrasion classifications. When pumping medium

Note: If fluids with viscosities over 200 cps are being


pumped, increase equivalent by 20% for 200 and
300 series pumps.
Select a pump model from Table 2 that has the flow
and pressure capabilities for your application. Since
performance ranges overlap between the pump models
shown, you may want to examine features and
capabilities of the individual model most suitable for
your application. In most instances, the lowest model
number that meets your performance requirements will
offer the most economical solution to your fluid handling
problems.
Temperature. The primary effects of temperature
occur on the elastomers used in pump construction,
particularly for the stator. Extreme temperatures tend to
destroy the resiliency of the elastomer, resulting in
reduced operating life. The low operating temperature
for the 500 pump is 10F. High temperature limits are
determined by the elastomer selected. Maximum

Chemical Resistance. When pumping fluids


requiring special consideration due to corrosive or other
chemical properties, the materials of construction for
pump housing, rotor and stator must be carefully
selected to ensure compatibility. The Chemical
Resistance Index, Table 4, is provided for use at your
own discretion in evaluating pump materials. This index
is based on the results of laboratory tests, field tests
and reference sources, but because of the many
variables and unknown circumstances associated with
individual applications, we cannot guarantee favorable
results or assume any liability in connection with its use.
When more than one material is shown to be suitable
for an application, these should be weighed with other
considerations, such as cost and availability, to facilitate
selection of the most suitable pump.
Materials of Construction. Table 3 lists materials
available for housing, rotor and stator in each 500 pump
series. This provides a ready reference to determine if
materials used in the series selected will meet
performance requirements.
Standard Models are coded light gray in the Table.
This is our standard line, suitable for most typical
applications. These pumps are produced in volume,
with stock availability at factory and distributor levels.

They are assigned a Standard Model Number, and


are constructed from uniform materials, e.g. pumps with
NBR stators will also have NBR joint covers (if
applicable), NBR elastomer parts in the seal; and
316SS housings, rotors, shafts, seals, etc.
Retrofit Options are coded dark gray, and are
available in kit form. These options provide the
necessary flexibility to satisfy most other applications at
a reasonable cost. If these options do not meet your
specifications, your Distributor has full engineering
support from the factory to provide a design that meets
your particular needs.
Chemical Resistance Index. Chemical resistance is
categorized numerically in Table 4 for all materials used
in constructing pump components. Characteristics of
materials shown are as follows:
Aluminum. Silicon alloy with excellent corrosion
resistance.
Table 3. Materials of Construction

Page 3
NBR. A copolymer of butadine and acrylonitrile
with excellent resistance to petroleum, mineral and
vegetable oils.
Cast Iron. Sand cast grey iron, suitable for most
non-corrosive fluids, ASTM A25.
EPDM. An elastomer of ethylene propylene
copolymer and terpolymer. Generally resistant to
animal and vegetable oils, ozone, strong and
oxidizing chemicals.
FPM. A fully saturated elastomer of fluorinated
polymer. Generally resistant to all aliphatic, aromatic
and halogenated hydrocarbons, acids, animal and
vegetable oils.
Nylon Resin. An engineered thermoplastic having
a broad range of outstanding properties, including
high and low temperature toughness, resistance to
abrasion, impact, solvents, oils and gasoline.
Material used is glass-filled *ZyteI.
Phenolic. A thermoset phenolic which offers excellent
chemical resistance.
Numerical Symbols used in Table 4 are:
1 Satisfactory.
2 May be suitable, depending on temperature and
concentration. Slight swelling of rubber parts may
occur, causing a change in performance.
3 Unsuitable.
Pump Selection Summarized
Follow these basic steps to select the pump most
suitable for your particular application.
1. Determine operating RPM for volumetric efficiency,
considering viscosity (see Table 1).
2. Determine operating RPM limits for pump life,
considering abrasion (see Table 1).

3. Convert to an equivalent flow of water at 1750 RPM


for use with Table 2 as follows.
Equivalent flow of
water at 1750 RPM

Desired flow x 1750


Maximum RPM (from table 1)

Note: If fluids with viscosities over 200 cps are being pumped,
increase equivalent by 20% for 200 and 300 series pumps.

4. Determine pump pressure capability required by


considering system operating pressure and the effects
of abrasion as necessary.
5. Select pump model which meet the calculated
equivalent flow and pressure determined from Table 2.
6. Using Tables 3 and 4 and operating limits shown in
the paragraph on Temperature, evaluate pump model
selected for your specific fluid handling application.
7. Determination of model number, options and
horsepower requirements are made from pump

EJEMPLO DE SELECCIN
Se requiere seleccionar una bomba Moyno para ser utilizada en un proceso de embotellado de
una salsa de 1344 cP con una gravedad especfica de 1.065. La capacidad de cada botella es de
4.75 litros y el tiempo de llenado es de 3 segundos. Si la tubera tiene una longitud equivalente de
10 pies en la succin y 100 pies en la descarga, determine:
a) Los dimetros de las tuberas de succin y descarga
b) La velocidad de la bomba
c) La potencia consumida
La instalacin es como se muestra en la figura:

(Nota: Si el tanque est por encima de la bomba, es decir, la bomba est
inundada, se llama aspiracin, de lo contrario, se llama succin.)
Altura de descarga:
30 pies
Presin de vaporizacin: No hay un valor exacto para la salsa, entonces asumimos que es muy
parecido a la presin de vaporizacin del agua a temperatura ambiente, es
decir, 3.5 [KPa]

Altura de aspiracin:

PASO 2:
DETERMINAR LA SERIE BSICA DE LA BOMBA
La bomba se utilizar en un proceso alimenticio, por lo que requiere ser de la serie Sanitaria. El
tanque inferior sirve para la fabricacin de la salsa y el superior es para el embotellamiento.

PASO 3:
ESCOGER LOS MATERIALES DE CONSTRUCCIN
Los materiales de construccin usados para las bombas sanitarias son los siguientes:

Nota: La nomenclatura usada en las bombas sanitarias que se lee en la parte superior derecha de
las curvas performance es la siguiente:
Primera letra:
F Bomba Sanitaria
CF Bomba sanitaria con opcin CIP (Clean in place)
Segunda letra:
Tipo de Bomba: Standard, Close Coupled, Open Throat, etc.
PASO 4:
DETERMINAR EL MENOR TAMAO DEL ELEMENTO DE BOMBEO
La gran diferencia entre serie 1000 (las cuales estn relacionadas con la serie Sanitary Pumps) y
2000 (las cuales estn relacionadas con la serie Sanitary High Pressure Pumps) es la capacidad
volumtrica de cada una. Si usted mira las curvas performance de la serie 2000, son bombas
grandes, que manejan hasta 4500 gpm. La serie 1000 es de bombas ms pequeas. Vamos a la
tabla 3, la cual muestra el tamao mximo de las partculas que pueden pasar por un modelo
determinado de bomba. Para la serie 1000 tenemos:

Como la salsa no tiene partculas en suspensin, nos sirve el elemento A. Pero hay que comprobar
las especificaciones de caudal. La tabla 5 (Para fluidos viscosos) nos muestra ste aspecto:

Con 1344 [cP], para el modelo A se puede enviar mximo 3.6 [gpm] (Iterando). Por lo tanto, hay
que descartarlo.
Modelo B
Mx. GPM: 6.8
Descartado
Modelo C
Mx. GPM: 13.7
Descartado
Modelo D
Mx. GPM: 28.0
OK
Para identificar un modelo de la Serie 1000 en el catlogo hay que tener en cuenta lo siguiente:
1. La primera letra designa el tipo de bomba as:
A Standard
B Close Coupled
C Open Throat
D High Abrasion, Standard
E High Abrasion, Close Coupled
2. La segunda posicin indica el nmero de etapas de la bomba, generalmente 1, 2 4.
3. La tercera posicin es una letra desde la A hasta la K que inica el modelo de la bomba y
est relacionado con su capacidad volumtrica as:
A 0.38 [gal/100 rev]
F 12.0 [gal/100 rev]
B 0.75 [gal/100 rev]
G 22.0 [gal/100 rev]
C 1.5 [gal/100 rev]
H 36.0 [gal/100 rev]
D 3.0 [gal/100 rev]
J 48.0 [gal/100 rev]
E 6.0 [gal/100 rev]
K 62.0 [gal/100 rev]
4. Las tres siguientes posiciones definen los materiales de construccin. La primera identifica
el material de la cmara de succin, la segunda indica el material usado en las partes
rotativas (partes metlicas en contacto con el material bombeado) y la tercera indica el
material del estator (no del tubo donde se inserta el estator, el cual siempre es de acero).
5. Otros caracteres que pueden seguir al cdigo de pedido de una bomba Moyno de la Serie
1000 pueden consultarse en el manual de servicio.
PASO 5:

AJUSTAR EL TAMAO DE LA BOMBA EN FUNCIN DE LA VISCOSIDAD Y LA


ABRASIN.

El grado de abrasin de la salsa es nulo. Sin embargo, su viscosidad es considerable. Cuando


calculemos la velocidad de rotacin de la bomba, la tendremos muy en cuenta.

PASO 6:

DETERMINAR EL NMERO DE ETAPAS

Necesitamos saber la presin diferencial que tiene que levantar la bomba. Para ello es necesario
saber las prdidas por tubera. Pero para saber las prdidas, necesitamos saber los dimetros de
succin y descarga.
Un buen criterio para elegir el dimetro de succin de una bomba es la altura neta de aspiracin
requerida y podemos buscar la curva performance de la bomba en la serie Sanitaria, elemento D.

1340 RPM

Determinacin del dimetro de Succin.


Asumimos (y luego verificaremos) que la velocidad de rotacin de la bomba es de 1000 rpm. As, el
NPSH requerido es de 5.65 [ft de agua]. (5.65/1.065 = 5.305 [ft de salsa])

NPSH disponible 5.305[ ft ] = 1.617[m]


NPSH d =

+
Hf

3.28[ ft m]

= 9.82 H f
Entonces,

9.82 H f 1.617
H f 9.82 1.617
H f 8.2[m ]
Como asegurarnos que la prdida en la succin sea menor de 8.2 [m de salsa]. Vamos a las tablas
de prdidas que se adjuntan a ste manual. Primero hay que convertir la viscosidad de cP a SSU
(Para una explicacin ms amplia, vase el libro Flujo de Fluidos de Crane, seccin B4):

cSt =

cP 1344
=
= 1261.97cSt
SG 1.065
SSU = Factor cSt

El factor del que se habla depende de la temperatura. A 38C, el factor es de 4.6347. As, nuestra
viscosidad de 1344 cP es 5848.85 SSU.
Entonces vamos a una tabla de prdidas de presin para tuberas de acero. Viking, por ejemplo,
ofrece una tabla de esta naturaleza y en este compendio se puede encontrar en los anexos. Para
25 gpm tenemos: (Los valores de prdida estn en psi por cada pie de tubera)

Nuestra prdida no debe ser superior a 8.2 [m de salsa]. Convirtiendo a psi tenemos:

H f = 8.2[m salsa] 9810 N m3 1.065


H f = 85.67[KPa] = 12.42[ psi]
Y como en la succin se tienen 10 pies de tubera, la mxima prdida que pudiera presentarse
antes de que ocurra la cavitacin sera de 1.242 [psi/pie]. Como se ve, el dimetro de 1 y el de

1 no sirven, porque ofrecen unas prdidas mayores a la mxima. Tomamos el inmediatamente


siguiente, es decir, la tubera de 2 que tiene una prdida de 0.49 [psi/pie].

psi
10[ pies ] = 4.9[ psi ]
pie

Con tal valor, las prdidas en la succin sern de 0.49

Para el dimetro de la tubera de descarga vamos a tomar uno en el que la presin diferencial no
supere el tope mximo admitido para una etapa, ya que pasarnos de ese lmite exigir al menos
dos etapas y ser una bomba mucho ms costosa.

Como nuestro fluido no es abrasivo ni corrosivo, la mxima presin recomendada por etapa es de

La presin diferencial sera:

p = pest + H f

La presin debida a la columna esttica sera:

pest = ( agua SG ) h

= 62.424 3 1.065 28.5[ pie]

pest = 1889.14 lb pie 2 = 13.1[ psi ]

La presin diferencial mxima sera:

87[ psi ] pest + H f suc + H f desc


13.12 + 4.9 + H f desc
H f desc 68.98[ psi ]
Como la tubera de descarga tiene 100 [pies], la prdida mxima admisible en la descarga sera de
0.69 [psi/pie]. Segn la tabla, ya no nos servira una tubera de 1 ni la de 1 . Entonces
pasamos a una tubera de 2, la cual tiene una prdida de 0.49 [psi/pie].
As, la prdida de presin en la tubera de descarga sera de 49 [psi] y la presin diferencial sera:

p = pest + H f suc + H f desc


= 13.12 + 4.9 + 49
p = 67.02[ psi ]

PASO 7:
DETERMINAR LA VELOCIDAD DE LA BOMBA
Para determinar la velocidad de la bomba, usamos la Tabla No.5 ya que tenemos un fluido viscoso
y buscamos el elemento D para 1344 cP.

En una grfica, se vera lo siguiente:

Interpolando, el mximo flujo a 1500 [rpm] para un fluido de 1344 cP es de 27.99 [gpm].
Pero en nuestro caso, el flujo es de 25 [gpm]. Entonces las revoluciones pueden ser menores. Por
ser una bomba de desplazamiento positivo (Velocidad de rotacin proporcional al caudal),

Entonces:

25
N = 1500
= 1340[rpm]
27.99

Nota: Con esta velocidad recalculamos el NPSHd = 9.61 [ft-agua] = 9.02 [ft-salsa] = 2.75 [m]
Entonces las prdidas

H f 9.82 H f
H f 7.07[m ]

10.71[ psi ]

En 10 [pies] de tubera, podramos tener como mximo 1.071 [psi/pie].


Hemos elegido una tubera de 2 que nos asegura una prdida de 0.49 [psi/pie]: OK
Nota: Si se hubiera podido pasar a 1 , lgicamente lo hubiramos hecho. Aqu no se
pudo porque 1 tiene una prdida de 1.27 > 1.07 [psi/pie].
PASO 8:
SELECCIN DE LA CAJA DE RODAMIENTOS
No aplica para la serie 1000.
PASO 9:
DETERMINACIN DE LA POTENCIA REQUERIDA

Correccin de la potencia debido a la viscosidad:
Nos dirigimos al final de la Serie Sanitaria y encontraremos una tabla para corregir la potencia

En elemento D, interpolando para 1344 cP se deben sumar 0.0478 [HP/100 rpm]

HP
1340[rpm ] = 0.641[HP ]
100rpm

Entonces la correccin por viscosidad es de: 0.0478

Pot = 2.05 + 0.641 = 2.691[HP]


Nota: Tener en cuenta la correccin si es un fluido abrasivo. Se debe tomar como correccin el
mayor valor entre la correccin por viscosidad y por abrasividad (no se suman).

Para la potencia consumida debe sumarse la potencia de acople (performance Superior derecha)

Para 1340 [rpm] se debe sumar una potencia de 0.536 [HP]. Por lo tanto, la potencia de consumo
es de

Pot = 2.691 + 0.536

Pot = 3.23[HP ]

VIKING ROTARY PUMPS

POSITIVE DISPLACEMENT PRINCIPLE AND HOW IT WORKS


Vikings simple gear-within-a-gear principle has only two moving parts. It
is the secret of dependable, efficient operation of all positive displacement
Viking Rotary Pumps. The positive displacement of liquid is accomplished
by the complete filling of the spaces between the teeth of the rotor and idler
gears. The only limiting factor to peak performance in a Viking Pump, as with
all rotary pumps, is that the liquid pumped must be comparatively clean.

1
The colored portion at left indicates the liquid as it
enters the suction port area of the casing and the area
between the rotor teeth and corresponding concave
area between the idler teeth. The two black arrows
indicate the pump rotation and progress of the liquid.

Notice the progress of the liquid through the pump and


between the teeth of the gear-within-a-gear principle.
Also, note how the crescent shape on the head divides
the liquid and acts as a seal between the suction and
discharge ports.

With every revolution of the pump shaft, a definite amount of liquid enters
the pump through the suction port. This liquid fills the spaces between the
teeth of the rotor and the idler. The crescent on the pump head splits the
flow of liquid as it is moved smoothly toward the discharge port. The idler
gear, which carries the liquid between its teeth and the inside surface of the
crescent, rotates on the pin supported by the pump head. The rotor gear,
which carries the liquid between its teeth, travels between the casing and the
outside surface of the crescent and is connected to the pump shaft. The four
schematic drawings at right give a graphic illustration of flow characteristics
through the pump.

This illustration shows the pump in a nearly flooded


condition just previous to the liquid being forced into
the discharge port area. Notice how the gear design of
the idler and rotor form locked pockets for the liquid so
as to guarantee absolute volume control.

4
This view shows the pump in a completely flooded
condition and in the process of discharging the liquid
through the discharge port. The rotor and idler teeth
mesh, forming a seal equidistant between the
discharge and suction ports, forcing liquid out the
discharge port.

ROTARY PUMP FUNDAMENTALS
INTRODUCTION
Before discussing terms used in pumping, first let us
consider how a pump lifts liquids (See Figure 1). Any
liquid at rest in an open container at sea level is subject
to atmospheric (absolute) pressure of approximately
14.7 pounds per square inch (psi) which is the same as
0 psi gage pressure. When a pump, located above the
liquid level and having a pipe connected to the suction
port and extending down into the liquid, is started, the
air in the suction line between the liquid and the pump
is removed by the pump. This reduces the pressure
inside the pump to a point below atmospheric pressure.
The atmospheric pressure on the liquid outside the
pipe, being greater than the absolute pressure inside
the pipe, causes the liquid to rise inside the pipe. If the
pump would remove all of the air from the suction line,
the liquid inside the pipe could rise to a height of 34
feet (equal to 14.7 psi) for a liquid with a specific gravity
of 1.00. In actual practice, this height will be less than
34 feet due to the frictional resistance encountered
by the liquid traveling through the pipe and the vapor
pressure of the liquid at the pumping temperature (to
be discussed later). Pressures below atmospheric are
spoken of as vacuum and referred to in units of inches
of mercury (in. Hg.)

HEAD
Units of Measuring Head For rotary pumps, the
common unit of measurement is pound per square inch
(psi). For a suction lift, the value is referred to as inches
of mercury (in. Hg.). Vertical distance in feet often enters

into the figuring of head, so the following conversions


are given:
psi = .49 x in. Hg.
= Head in feet x specific gravity
2.31
in. Hg. = 2.04 x psi
= Head in feet x specific gravity x .88
Head in feet =
=

psi x 2.31
Specific Gravity
in. Hg.
Specific Gravity x .88

Head in feet in the above conversions means head in


feet of the liquid pumped. Specific gravity is the weight
of any volume of a liquid divided by the weight of an
equal volume of water.
Static Suction Lift is the vertical distance in feet
(expressed in psi) between the liquid level of the source
of supply and the centerline of the pump when the pump
is located above the liquid level of the source of supply.
See Figure 2, (A).
Static Suction Head is the vertical distance in feet
(expressed in psi) between the liquid level of the source
of supply and the centerline of the pump when the pump
is located below the liquid level of the source of supply.
See Figure 2, (B).
Friction Head is the pressure (expressed in psi)
required to overcome frictional resistance of a piping
system to a liquid flowing through it. See Figure 2, (D).
Velocity Head is the energy of the liquid (expressed
in psi) due to its rate of flow through the pipe. It can
usually be ignored because of its small value compared
to the total head value.
Total Suction Lift is the total pressure below
atmospheric (expressed in in. Hg. or psi) at the suction
port when the pump is in operation and equals:
1. Static suction lift plus the frictional head or
2. Frictional head minus the static suction head (if
frictional head is greater than static suction head)
See Figure 3.
Total Suction Head is the total pressure above
atmospheric (expressed in psi) at the suction port when
the pump is in operation and is equal to the static suction
head minus frictional head.
Static Discharge Head is the vertical distance in feet
(expressed in psi) between the centerline of the pump
and the point of free delivery of the liquid. See Figure 2,
(A), (B), and (C).
Total Discharge Head is the sum of the frictional
head in the discharge line (discharge frictional head)
and the static discharge head. See Figure 3.

Total Static Head is the sum of the static suction lift


and the static discharge head or the difference between
the static discharge head and the static suction head.
See Figure 2, (A), (B) and (C).
Total Dynamic Head is the sum of the total discharge
head and total suction lift or the difference between the
total discharge head and total suction head. See Figure 3.
Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) is the pressure
in feet of liquid absolute measured at the pump suction
port, less the vapor pressure. For additional discussion
on NPSH, see Application Data Sheet AD-19.

As mentioned before, when cavitation occurs in the


handling of any liquid, capacity is reduced and the
pump may be expected to be noisy and vibrate. With
cavitation, the higher the discharge pressure, the more
noisy the pump will be.

VAPOR PRESSURE*

Vapor Pressure and Units All liquids will boil or


vaporize with the proper combination of temperature
and pressure. As the pressure is reduced, boiling will
occur at a lower temperature. For example, water boils
at atmospheric pressure at sea level (14.7 psi) at 212F.
At an elevation of 10,000 feet the atmospheric pressure
is reduced to 10.0 psi and water will boil at 193F. As
boiling takes place, vapor is given off by the liquid.
For most common liquids at room temperature, boiling
occurs at pressures below atmospheric pressure. As
the pressure on liquids in the suction line is decreased
(vacuum increased), a pressure is reached at which
the liquid boils. This pressure is known as the vapor
pressure of the liquid. If the pressure in the suction line
is further decreased (vacuum increased), both vapor
and liquid will enter the pump and the capacity of the
pump will be reduced. In addition, the vapor bubbles in
the pump, when entering the pressure or discharge side
of the pump, will be collapsed by the pressure resulting
in noise and vibration. The rapid formation of vapor in
the suction line and suction port along with their sudden
collapse is called cavitation.
For liquids which evaporate readily, such as gasoline,
cavitation may occur with only a few inches mercury
vacuum while for liquids which do not evaporate readily,
such as lubricating oils, cavitation may not occur until a
vacuum of 18 inches mercury or higher is reached.
Effect on Pump and Installation The theoretical
height to which a liquid can be lifted at any temperature
is the difference between atmospheric pressure and
the vapor pressure of the liquid at that temperature,
when both values of pressure are expressed in feet of the
liquid.
The suction lift practical for actual pumping installations
is considerably below the theoretical value given above.
Figure 4 has been prepared to show the theoretical
suction lift of water and the maximum recommended for
water at various temperatures. As elevations above sea
level increase, atmospheric pressure decreases and
the maximum suction lifts permitted are reduced.

VISCOSITY

Viscosity and Units Viscosity may be defined as


the resistance of a fluid to flow. In the United States the
most widely used instrument for measuring viscosity is
the Saybolt Universal viscosimeter. In this instrument,
adopted by the American Society for Testing Materials,
the time required for a given quantity of fluid to flow
through a capillary tube is measured. This time, in
seconds, gives a result in terms of Seconds Saybolt
Universal (SSU). For high viscosities, a Saybolt Furol
viscosimeter is used that gives a result in terms of
Seconds Saybolt Furol (SSF). SSF x 10 = SSU.
Conversions from other viscosity units to SSU are
shown in Figure 6 on the following page.
Effect on Pump Installation The viscosity of the
liquid is a very important factor in the selection of a pump.
It is the determining factor in frictional head, motor size
required and speed reduction necessary. Frequently,
for high viscosity liquids, it is more economical to use
a large pump operating at a reduced speed since the
original higher total installation cost is more than offset
by reduced maintenance and subsequent longer life of
the unit. Figure 5 shows the percentage of rated speed
used for pumping liquids of various viscosities.
Compared to other types of pumps, the rotary pump is
best able to handle high viscosity liquids. The following
tabulation shows the approximate maximum viscosity
liquids that can be handled with various type pumps:
Centrifugal................................................. 3,000 SSU
Reciprocating............................................ 5,000 SSU
Rotary................................................. 2,000,000 SSU
The theoretical maximum allowable static suction lift is
equal to 14.7 psi minus the frictional head. If the frictional
head is high, an increase in suction piping size and port
size will reduce the frictional head and allow a greater
static suction lift. On high viscosity liquids, the reduction
of pump speed will also reduce frictional head and allow
a greater static suction lift.

Under some conditions, with high viscosity liquids, it


may be better to relocate the pump to obtain a static
suction head rather than to have a static suction lift.
This relocation will help guarantee filling of the tooth
spaces of the idler and rotor during the time they are
exposed to the suction port and result in improved pump
performance.
For additional discussion on Viscosity and its effect on
Pump Selection, see Application Data Sheet AD-3.

CAPACITY

Capacity Units The capacity is measured in terms of


US gallons per minute or gpm.

HORSEPOWER AND
EFFICIENCY

Horsepower and Units The work required to drive


the pump or the power input is designated as brake
horsepower or Pin. Power output or Pout may be computed by the formula:
Pout =

gals. per min. x total dynamic head in psi


1715

Friction in the pump is the main loss of power so that


the power output is always less than the power input.
Pump efficiency is defined as power output divided by
power input or:
Pout
Pin
gals. per min. x total dynamic head in psi
Pin =

SELECTING THE CORRECT VIKING PUMP IN 10 EASY STEPS

FOREWORD
The purpose of this section Selecting the Correct
Viking Pump in 10 Easy Steps is to provide a means of
systematically arriving at the proper final pump selection
with a minimum of effort. Reference to the terms defined
in the Introduction will aid in understanding this section.
Consult the factory when in doubt on any point in the
selection of a pump.
To aid in following the explanation, an example
problem is given below. The example problem will be
followed through each of the Ten Easy Steps and the
selection of the proper pump for the application will be
given.
Example: (See FIG. 7)
A canning factory desires to add syrup to a cooking
kettle at the rate of 448 pounds of syrup per minute.
The syrup must be taken from a basement storage tank
and delivered to the cooking kettle located on the third
floor. The basement temperature will reach a minimum
of 60F. at which temperature the syrup will have a
viscosity of 3,000 SSU. The specific gravity of the syrup
at 60F. is 1.36. For a liquid of this viscosity, the pump
would usually be located in the basement below the
storage tank, however, space limitations prevent this
and the pump must be located on the first floor. The
desired piping arrangement and dimensions are shown
on Figure 7. Select the proper size pipe and pump unit
for this application.

STEP 1
Determine the Capacity Required in Gallons Per Minute

Since desired capacity is not always known in terms


of gallons per minute, a few common conversions are
listed below:
US gpm = .7 x barrels per hour (bph)
= .0292 x bbls. per day (bpd)
pounds per hour
=
specific gravity x 500
= 1.2 x Imperial GPM
One barrel is considered to contain 42 US or 35
Imperial Gallons. For other volumetric conversions, see
Page 22.
Example:
The capacity required in gallons per minute is given
by the formula:
pounds per hour
US GPM =
specific gravity x 500
US GPM =

448 x 60
1.36 x 500

US GPM = 40

STEP 2
Determine the Liquid Viscosity at the
Pumping Temperature (Lowest)

Viscosities of some common liquids are listed in


Figure 8 to aid in the viscosity determination of the
liquid pumped. For conversion to SSU from other units
of viscosity measurement, refer to Figure 6.
If it is impossible to determine the liquid viscosity, a
sample of the material may be sent to Viking Pump,
Inc., Cedar Falls, Iowa, where an accurate viscosity
determination will be made in the laboratory. A minimum
of one pint of liquid is needed for this purpose. In
submitting a sample, always specify the temperature at
which the liquid will be pumped.
Example:
The viscosity, in SSU, of the syrup is given.
SSU = 3,000

STEP 3

FIG. 7 - Installation for Example Problem

Select the Pump Size


When the capacity required in gpm and the viscosity
in SSU at the pumping temperature are known, the
proper size pump can be selected from Figure 9.
Note: Figure 9 is presented as an illustrative example,
only.

Viscosity, SSU . ........................................................... 3,000
Capacity, GPM .................................................................. 40
Basic Pump Size . ...............................................................K

STEP 4
Select the Type and Class of Pump
After the pump size has been determined, the choice
of a type of pump will depend on several factors.
To serve the needs of all industries and pump users,
Viking pumps are grouped by types to serve the numerous needs of the users. These pump types, together
with pressure limitations are to be found in the catalog.
As the name implies, General Purpose pumps are
used for normal duty operation and where pressures are
not excessive. For continuous duty at higher pressures,
the Heavy-Duty pump fulfills the job.
The liquid handled is often instrumental in the selection
of a type of pump. Milk should be handled by a Sanitary
pump, propane by an LP Gas pump, etc.

VIKING ENGINEERING DATA


SELECTING THE CORRECT VIKING PUMP IN 10 EASY STEPS
For clean liquids of low to medium viscosities at low
to medium temperatures, the mechanical seal pumps
are desirable. Packed pumps with special packing are
usually recommended for applications involving high
temperatures, high viscosities. Pumps with special
wear resistant features are available for handling liquids
containing abrasive particles.
Insurance Underwriters or city or state law requirements may determine the choice of an Underwriters
Approved pump when handling flammable liquids.
Example:
Two types of pumps could be selected, the General
Purpose or the Heavy-Duty. For long life and continuous
duty, the Heavy-Duty pump would be the choice. The
final decision, in this case, need not be made until the
total discharge head is calculated.

STEP 5
Determine the Size of the Suction Piping
The use of ample size suction piping is a prime
requirement of a good installation. This is especially
true for viscous liquids, previously discussed under the
heading Viscosity.
When considering the suction side of a pump installation, reference is often made to Net Positive
Suction Head (NPSH) which was defined in the fundamentals section.
NPSH is the energy that forces liquid into the pump.
Determining the Net Positive Suction Head Available
(NPSHa) on an existing pumping system involves
measuring the absolute pressure at the suction port
by means of a gage and subtracting the liquids vapor
pressure at the pumping temperature. To calculate
NPSHa for an existing or proposed installation, determine the absolute pressure above the source of
liquid, add the suction head or subtract the suction lift,
subtract the piping friction losses and the liquids vapor
pressure. Remember all measurements and calculations
are expressed in feet of liquid pumped.
For a given pump with specific operating conditions a
minimum value of NPSH is required to assure desirable
full flow operation. This is referred to as the Net Positive
Suction Head Required (NPSHr) for the pump and can
be determined only by closely controlled testing.
If the NPSHa on a proposed installation does not
exceed the NPSHr, the pump may operate in a starved
condition or will cavitate, as discussed previously.
The effects of such a condition may vary from a slight
reduction in expected capacity to serious vibration,
extremely noisy operation and/or abnormal wear.
Many Viking pumps are called upon to operate with
marginal suction conditions and do so successfully.
Frequently it is possible to obtain pumps with oversize
ports to aid in reducing NPSHr.

Section

510

Page

510.11

Issue

Determining NPSHr values for Viking pumps, over the


wide range of speeds and viscosities they are used for, is
a large undertaking and a great deal of NPSHr data has
been and continues to be, accumulated. However, the
following discussion is intended as a general guideline
and refers to allowable vacuum gage readings in in.
Hg. which is in keeping with rotary pump application
traditions.
Since many pump application problems are related to
the suction side of the pump, it is always good to practice
to pay particular attention to this portion of the proposed
installation. Feel free to contact your Viking distributor,
Viking sales representative or the factory for answers to
questions you may have regarding this matter.
For ideal pumping conditions, the total suction lift
should never exceed 15 in. Hg. when pumping nonvolatile liquids (See Vapor Pressure). For volatile
liquids, the total suction lift should never exceed 10
in. Hg., becoming less as the vapor pressure of the
liquid increases.
Considering non-volatile liquids, the static suction lift,
in psi, must first be subtracted from the allowable 15 in.
Hg. (7.4 PSI)* to obtain the allowable PSI friction head
for the suction line (A).
Referring to Figure 10, determine if the flow of liquid
in the suction piping will be laminar or turbulent by
following the capacity line horizontally and the viscosity
line vertically until they intersect.
For laminar flow, disregard friction losses for fittings
and valves. Divide the allowable PSI friction head for
suction line (A) by the total length of suction pipe to
obtain the maximum allowable loss in PSI per foot
of suction pipe for laminar flow (B). From Figure 10,
select the pipe size having a per foot friction loss less
than the maximum allowable loss per foot of suction
pipe for laminar flow (B).
For turbulent flow, assume the suction port size as the
proper size suction pipe and determine the equivalent
lengths of straight pipe for the valves and fittings from
Figure 11. Add these values to the length of straight
suction pipe to obtain the total equivalent length of
straight suction pipe (C). Divide the allowable PSI
friction head for suction line (A) by the total equivalent
length of straight suction pipe (C) to obtain the

maximum allowable PSI loss per foot of suction pipe


for turbulent flow (D). If the maximum allowable PSI
loss per foot of suction pipe for turbulent flow (D) is

greater than the value given in Figure 10, the correct


size suction pipe has been selected. If the maximum

allowable PSI loss per foot of suction pipe for turbulent


flow (D) is less than the value given in Figure 10, repeat

the above process for the next larger pipe size until the

maximum allowable PSI loss per foot of suction pipe


for turbulent flow (D) becomes greater than the value

given in Figure 10 for the pipe size checked.

FIG. 11

Example:
Since sugar syrup may be considered non-volatile, a
total suction lift of 15 in. Hg. (7.4 PSI) may be used.
Considering a minimum amount of syrup in the storage
tank, the static suction lift is eight feet of syrup. This
equals 8 x 1.36 or 4.7 PSI. The allowable PSI friction head
2.31

is then 7.4 PSI 4.7 PSI, or 2.7 PSI. Referring to figure


10, for 40 GPM and 3,000 SSU, the flow is indicated to
be laminar and no losses need to be taken into account
for the valves and fittings. The allowable friction head
(A) divided by the total length of suction pipe is equal to
2.7
or .225 PSI per foot of suction pipe (B), the maximum
12

allowable loss per foot of suction pipe. From figure 10,


for 40 GPM and 3,000 SSU, the pipe size having a per
foot friction loss less than .225 PSI is 3 inch which has
a loss of .111 PSI per foot of pipe (Loss equals .082
times the specific gravity of the syrup 1.36 or .111 PSI
per foot).
K size pumps are furnished as standard with casings
featuring 2 inch tapped ports so it will be necessary to
use a 3 inch x 2 inch reducing coupling at the pump
suction port with the remainder of the piping being 3
inch size.
Having determined the size of the suction pipe, the
total suction lift may be determined by adding the static
suction lift and friction head or:
Static suction lift........................................... 4.7 PSI
Friction head (.111 PSI per foot x 12 feet).... 1.33 PSI
Total suction lift . .......................................... 6.03 PSI
This value is less than the allowable 7.4 PSI Total
Suction lift illustrating that the selection of 3 inch suction
pipe is correct.
The total suction lift will be used later to help determine
the horsepower required to drive this pump.
*

For a static suction head (pump below the liquid source) the value of the
static suction head should be added to the 15 in. Hg. or 7.4 PSI allowable.

STEP 6

Determine the Size of the Discharge Piping


The method of selection of the proper size discharge
pipe is much the same as the method used in the
selection of the proper size suction pipe. In the choice of
the suction pipe size, the maximum allowable vacuum
(15 in. Hg. or 7.4 PSI for non-volatile liquids) is used as
the basis of calculations. For the discharge pipe, the
maximum allowable discharge pressure value for the
type of pump selected (See Step 4) is used as the basis
of calculations.
The static discharge head, in PSI, is first subtracted
from the maximum allowable discharge pressure to
obtain the allowable PSI friction head for the discharge
line (E).

Since the suction and discharge pipe may be of


different size, it is again necessary to determine if the
flow will be laminar or turbulent in the discharge piping.
Proceed as in Step 5, using first a pipe size equal to the
discharge port size.
For laminar flow, disregard losses for fittings and
valves. Divide the allowable PSI friction head for
discharge line (E) by the total length of discharge pipe
to obtain the maximum allowable PSI loss per foot of
discharge pipe for laminar flow (F). If the calculated
maximum allowable loss (F) is less than the value
given in Figure 10 for the discharge port size, check
larger pipe sizes until the pressure loss value given is
less than (F).
For turbulent flow, using a pipe size equal to the
discharge port size, determine the equivalent lengths
of straight pipe for the valves and fittings from Figure
11. Add these values to the length of straight discharge
pipe to obtain the total equivalent length of straight
discharge pipe (G). Divide the allowable PSI friction
head for discharge line (E) by the total equivalent
length of straight discharge pipe (G) to obtain the
maximum allowable PSI loss per foot of discharge pipe

* For liquids with a specific gravity other than 1.00, multiply the value from the above table
by the specific gravity of the liquid. For old pipe, add 20% to the above values.
Figures to right of dark line are laminar flow. Figures to left of dark line are turbulent flow.

To convert the above values to kPa (kilopascals) per metre of pipe, multiply by 22.6.
To convert the above values to kg per cm per metre of pipe, multiply by 0.23.

SELECTING THE CORRECT VIKING PUMP IN 10 EASY STEPS
for turbulent flow (H). If the maximum allowable PSI
loss per foot of discharge pipe for turbulent flow (H)

is greater than the value given in Figure 10, the proper


size pipe has been selected. If the maximum allowable

PSI loss per foot of discharge pipe for turbulent flow


(H) is less than the value in Figure 10, select the pipe

size for which the value given in Figure 10 is less than


(H).
Example:
In step 4 a heavy duty pump was tentatively selected.
This pump has a maximum allowable total dynamic
head of 200 PSI for viscous liquids. The static discharge
head, in PSI, equals 45 x 1.36 or 26.4 PSI. The maxi2.31
mum total discharge head equals total dynamic head
less the total suction lift, 200 PSI 6.03 PSI or 193.97
PSI. The maximum allowable PSI discharge line friction
loss is then 193.7 26.4 or 167.57 PSI. Assuming the
discharge pipe size to be the same as the pump port
size (2 inch for K pumps), for a first trial, and referring
to figure 10, a flow of 40 GPM and 3,000 SSU is found
to be laminar and no losses need to be considered for
valves and fittings. The allowable PSI friction head (E)
divided by the total length of discharge pipe is equal to
167.57
or 1.3 PSI per foot of discharge pipe (F).
128
Again referring to figure 10, we find that the pressure
per foot of 2 inch pipe is .544 PSI (.4 times the specific
gravity, 1.36 equals .544 PSI per foot). Since this value
is substantially below the 1.3 PSI loss per foot allowable,
consideration may be given to more economical 1 inch
pipe with a PSI friction loss per foot of 1.49 (1.1 times
specific gravity 1.36 equals 1.49 PSI per foot). Since
this value of pressure drop per foot of pipe is higher
than the allowable 1.3 PSI, selection of 2 inch pipe for
the discharge line appears to be proper.
The total discharge head for 2 inch pipe is equal to the
static discharge head plus the friction head or:
Static discharge head....................................26.4 PSI
Friction head (.544 PSI per foot x 128 feet)....69.5 PSI
Total discharge head.....................................95.9 PSI
Note here that if a general purpose pump had been
selected in step 4 instead of a heavy-duty, the total
dynamic head, which equals the total discharge head
plus the total suction lift or 95.9 + 6.03 = 101.93 PSI,
would have slightly exceeded the maximum allowable
total head for general purpose pumps. NOTE: for a
2 inch discharge line, the total discharge head would
equal 128 x .19 x 1.36 + 26.4 or 59.4 PSI and the total
dynamic head would have been 59.4 + 6.03 PSI or
65.43 PSI.
Selection of the more expensive 2 inch discharge
line would permit consideration of a more economical
general purpose pump and perhaps the use of a drive
with less horsepower resulting from the reduced total
dynamic head. The use of a 2 inch discharge line

would require a 2 x 2 increaser in the pump discharge


port. Horsepower requirements will be discussed in
step 7.

STEP 7
Determine the Horsepower* Required
To determine brake horsepower (Pin) required by a
pump per the formula on Page 510.5, it is necessary to
know the capacity in GPM, the total dynamic head in
PSI and the pump efficiency. The capacity and head or
differential pressure are determined by the application.
The pump or mechanical efficiency cannot be calculated
until after the brake horsepower has been determined
by laboratory tests. Since it is necessary to test a pump
before the mechanical efficiency can be determined,
it is more logical to present the actual horsepower
data in the form of performance curves rather than to
provide mechanical efficiency values which then require
additional calculations.
Viking catalogs a series of performance curves based
on extensive tests of all pump models. These curves
plot brake horsepower and pump capacity against
pump speed at several pressures and for up to 8
different viscosities ranging from 38 SSU (No. 2 Fuel
Oil) through 250,000 SSU. Horsepower for viscosities
between those shown on the performance curves can
be taken from the nearest higher viscosity curve or can
be determined by averaging the values from the curves
with viscosities immediately above and below that of the
application. The performance curves are printed on buffcolored paper and are grouped in back of the individual
General Catalog sections.
For those occasions when it is desirable to calculate
the mechanical efficiency of a pump for a specific
application, use the following formula which appears on
many of the General Catalog performance curve pages:
(Diff. Press., PSI)(Cap., GPM)(100)
M.E. in % =
(Horsepower, BHP)(1715)
There are times when it is convenient to be able to
quickly arrive at a ballpark figure for horsepower. For
an application involving viscosities in the range of 100
to 2500 SSU and pressures above 50 PSI, this can be
done by multiplying the differential pressure in PSI by the
capacity in GPM and dividing by 1000. It can be seen by
looking at the formula on Page 510.5 that if an efficiency
of approximately 58% is used, the value below the line
comes out to be 1000 (1715 x 0.58). This formula for
estimating horsepower is strictly a convenience for use
on a limited number of applications; for exact values it is
necessary to refer to the General Catalog performance
curves.
For some applications it is desirable to be able to
determine the torque** requirements of the pump; this is
* See definitions on Page 510.5.
** Torque is a turning or twisting force; applying a 10 pound force perpendicular to the
end of a 12 inch long crank or wrench results in a torque or twisting force of 120 inch

SELECTING THE CORRECT VIKING PUMP IN 10 EASY STEPS

particularly true when selecting variable speed drive


equipment. With the pump speed and horsepower
known, torque in inch pounds can be determined from
HP x 63,000
the formula:
T (#s) =
RPM
To illustrate, a 1 horsepower motor operating at 1750
RPM delivers a torque of 36 inch pounds 1 x 63,000
1750
With constant pressure and viscosity, the torque requirements of a Viking pump increase only slightly with
speed.
An important consideration to keep in mind when
figuring horsepower is the fact that almost all Viking
pumps are cataloged complete with a safety relief valve.
Viking safety relief valves, be they internal, returnto-tank or in-line, are to be used only for protection
against excessive pressure buildup caused by a closed
discharge line or from unexpectedly high viscosity.
The Viking safety relief valve is strictly a safety device
which relieves excess pressure and thus prevents
damage to the pump, the piping system, the drive
equipment or the motor. The safety relief valve should
not be used as a pressure or flow control device.
The Viking safety relief valve is of the adjustable
spring-loaded poppet type. The pump builds up pressure
under the poppet until it starts to lift from the valve seat
(this is the cracking point or pressure at which there is
first flow through the valve). As the pressure buildup
continues, the poppet lifts further from the seat until all
of the liquid is flowing or bypassing through the valve
no liquid is going into the discharge line. This pressure
in Viking terminology - is the safety relief valve setting;
more frequently referred to as the valve setting. The
pressure spread between the cracking point and the
complete bypass pressure or valve setting is a function
of the setting, of the flow through the valve and of the
liquid viscosity.*
The safety relief valve is not expected to function
during normal operation of the pump. Therefore, it is
generally not necessary to consider the valve setting
pressure when making horsepower determinations. The
additional horsepower required to develop the pressure
to open the safety relief valve since it is required very
infrequently and only for very short periods of time
can normally be provided by the drive furnished with
the pump. If there are extenuating circumstances, such
as frequent safety relief valve operation, an unusually
viscous liquid, a very low operating pressure, a valve
being used at the upper end of its capacity range or specs
that spell out that the motor should not be overloaded at
the relief valve setting, then, of course, they should be
taken into account when determining horsepower.
Example:
A liquid viscosity of 3,000 SSU at the lowest pumping
temperature was given as part of the application information with the problem (also see Step 2); the pump

size (K) was determined in Step 3; the total dynamic


head of 101.93 (102) PSI was determined in Step 6 and
to provide the best possible service life consider the
124 heavy-duty series pump. With this information in
hand, the horsepower required can be determined from
Figure 12 or from performance curve #110-20 in the
General Catalog for the K124 pump handling 2500 SSU
liquid. Since the 3,000 SSU is a maximum figure and
not the normal operating viscosity and since the actual
horsepower difference between a pump handling 3,000
SSU and 2500 SSU is very slight, there is no hesitation
in using the performance data based on 2500 SSU.
If there was a possibility that the viscosity could go
significantly higher or if the normal viscosity was 3,000
SSU, then the conservative approach would be to use
the horsepower from the performance curve for 7500
SSU. The 2500 SSU curve, see Figure 12, shows that the
K124 operating at a pump speed of 420 RPM* will deliver
about 42 GPM and at 100 PSI discharge** will require
approximately 4.6 brake horsepower. A 5 HP motor
would be used. The mechanical efficiency of thepump
* The 420 RPM speed was selected since this is the nearest AGMA gear head motor
speed that will give at least 40 GPM. Viking reducer and V-belt drives have been
standardized on the AGMA speeds.
** All performance curves in the General Catalog are based on an indicated vacuum
in inches of mercury. The pressure lines shown on the curves are for discharge port
gage readings. The actual total dynamic head or differential across the pump is the
sum of the vacuum and discharge pressure. For the curve in Figure 12, the vacuum
(15 Hg) can be expressed as 7.35 PSIG. This, when combined with the 100 PSI,
gives a total dynamic head across the pump of 107.35 (107) PSI. This is greater than
the 102 PSI in the example and is thus conservative; therefore, it is logical to use the
100 PSI pressure line to determine the horsepower.

SELECTING THE CORRECT VIKING PUMP IN 10 EASY STEPS
would be determined as follows using the formula
discussed earlier:
PSI (102) x GPM (42) x 100
M.E. % =
BHP (4.6) x 1715
M.E. = 54%
In Step 6 when a 2 diameter discharge line was
considered instead of a 2 line, the total dynamic head
was determined to be 65.43 (65) PSI. From Figure 12
the horsepower is shown to be 3.5; a 5 HP motor would
still be required.
From the above discussion it can be seen that the use
of larger pipe, while involving a greater initial expense,
would require considerably less electrical energy over
the operating life of the pump. Also, since the pump
would be operating at a lower total dynamic head or
differential pressure, it would have a longer service life
with less maintenance. Another consideration, which
is well to keep in mind, is that with the larger pipe it
would be relatively easy to increase the flow rate or
to increase the viscosity of the liquid pumped without
extensive changes to the system.
In summary, the use of generously-sized suction and
discharge lines is highly recommended as a means of
lowering the overall cost per gallon of liquid pumped.

STEP 8
Select the Materials of Construction
A choice of the proper materials of construction of
a pump for handling a specific liquid is important and
often quite complicated. In the selection of materials
of construction, factors that must be considered, other
than consideration of the liquid itself, are temperature,
contamination, concentration of the liquid, etc. Each
of these variables may play a vital role in a choice of
materials of construction.
Section 520 of the Viking catalog includes a comprehensive listing of a wide variety of liquids that are
handled by Viking pumps, including information about
the liquids, recommendations about material of construction selection as well as pump types and special
pump features that have been found desirable for the
specific liquid. In addition, the catalog contains information about materials of construction and features that
are available on specific pump models or pump model
series. You are directed to these sources for answers
to questions you may have regarding selection of pump
materials of construction.
Recommendations given in Section 520 are to be appraised as general since the variables mentioned above
may alter the choice of materials. All of the recommendations, however, have been successfully used in
actual installations.
The final choice is usually left up to the customer since
selection of materials with the most rapid corrosion rate
will normally result in low first cost and high maintenance
cost or eventual pump replacement. Conversely,

Section

510

Page

510.19

Issue

selection of materials with low corrosion rates will


normally result in high first cost and low maintenance
cost. In addition, the contamination of the customers
product or process when using materials with rapid
corrosion rates may be objectionable and may dictate
the use of materials with lower rates of corrosion.
When new liquids are encountered, the materials
presently used in handling or storing the liquid may be a
guide to the proper materials of pump construction.
Corrosion tests on possible materials of construction
can be made for any liquid in the Viking chemical
laboratory but these tests are very expensive and due to
liquid aeration etc., the tests are not entirely conclusive.
However, without any previous knowledge of proper
materials of construction, these facilities should then be
utilized. A minimum of one pint of liquid is required for a
corrosion test.
Many liquids that are pumped or can be pumped are
not listed. When not familiar with a liquid, the selection of
the proper materials of construction should be a factory
choice since a vast amount of proper material data has
been collected over a period of years of successful
pump operation.
Example: a pump of Standard Construction should be considered for this application.

STEP 9
Consider the Temperature of the Liquid Pumped
Although rotary pumps can successfully handle liquids
up to viscosities of 2,000,000 SSU, the liquids are often
heated prior to pumping for reasons such as 1) higher
allowable speeds for greater capacities 2) desirability
of a specific temperature of liquid in a heat transfer
process and 3) lower power requirements. Conversely,
pumps are often required to handle low temperature
liquids, particularly in refrigeration or air conditioning
equipment. In either case, special consideration must
be given to pump construction at extreme temperature
conditions.
Extreme sub-zero temperatures cause reduction
of strength and brittleness in some metals. For these
reasons, the factory should always be consulted on all
low temperature installations.
Temperature ranges within which standard pumps with
no modifications may be used are listed throughout the
Viking catalog in specification charts. These temperature
ranges may vary with the size and pump model.
Temperatures in excess of those listed in specification
charts require varying amounts of extra clearances
applied to the internal parts of the pump to avoid scoring,
galling, and other mechanical failures.
For temperatures above 300F. special gaskets and
packing materials are required.
Bronze bushings with proper operating clearances
are suitable for operation up to 450F.

SELECTING THE CORRECT VIKING PUMP IN 10 EASY STEPS

Carbon graphite bushings are recommended for use


with high temperature, low viscosity liquids such as
heat transfer oils. Because of the low expansion rate of
the carbon graphite, there is an operating temperature
above which it is necessary to use special interference
fits at assembly. This temperature varies depending on
pump size. See Engineering Service Bulletin ESB-3 for
specifics.
Special idler pin materials are recommended for
operation above 450F.
Viking Cast Iron parts have been found satisfactory
for operation up to 650F.
For operation above 650F. or when required by
various safety codes and specifications, Viking pumps
are available with steel externals to resist thermal shock
or comply with such codes or specifications.
Steel relief valve springs are considered suitable for
operation up to 350F. For temperatures above 350F.
stainless steel or other special spring materials are
recommended.
The heating or cooling of liquids that are being
pumped is often accomplished by circulating steam or
hot or cold liquids through external jackets provided as
standard features or options on many Viking pumps.
Consult the specific section of the general catalog for
further information regarding the availability of jacketing
features on the pump you are interested in using.
Provisions can be made for the operation of mechanical
seals at temperatures in excess of those listed in the
catalog specification charts. This may involve special
materials, different seal configurations, different seal
locations on the pump or special provisions for cooling
the seal to an acceptable operating temperature. For
additional discussion on Temperature considerations,
see Application Data Sheet AD-5.

speed of 420 RPM and that can transmit 5 horsepower.
Of the several drive arrangements listed above that
could be used with this unit D, R, P and V
the Viking Reducer or R type is the most popular and
would be the first choice for the example. The model
number of the unit would be K125R.

Example:
Since the operating temperature is below 200F., no
special consideration need to given to temperature.

STEP 10
Select the Mounting and Drive Arrangement
When a pump is to become a component part of
another piece of equipment, the unmounted pump is
usually the selection made.
Adaptation to an existing drive, desirability of quietness
of operation, operation without undue maintenance and
speed desired are but a few of the factors that may enter
into the choice of a mounting arrangement.
The drive arrangements available with Viking pumps
are listed below.

EJEMPLO DE SELECCIN

Vamos ahora a hacer el mismo ejercicio de seleccin que hicimos para las bombas Moyno,
seleccionando ahora una bomba de la empresa Vinking Pump, Inc. Usaremos el Software que
ofrece la empresa en su pgina web:
http://vikingpump.com/en/Index.html
Ingrese a la pgina web y seleccione el men RESOURCES y luego ENGINEERING TOOLS. La
primera herramienta es el Pump Selector (http://www.vikingpump.com/pumpselector/)
Despus de aceptar la licencia, encontrar el selector:
1. Seleccione Pump selection.
2. Coloque su localizacin. En nuestro caso, Other.
3. En nuestro caso, el material de Construccin debe ser Acero Inoxidable (Caractersticas
Sanitarias): 316 Stainless Steel
4. Elegimos un Sello Mecnico: Mechanical Seal
5. Sin enchaquetamiento (No check a Jacketing).
6. No hay requerimientos especiales en cuanto a normativas que se deban cumplir.
7. Viscosidad de 5849 [SSU]
8. Presin diferencial de 67.02 [psi]
9. Temperatura de 25 C
10. Gravedad Especfica de 1.065
11. Flujo de 25 [GPM]
Resultados:

El criterio de seleccin que tomaremos es el siguiente:


Q p
1. Eficiencia: Sabemos que Pot =
. Como todas estas bombas estn trabajando con

un caudal de 25 [gpm] y levantan una cabeza de 67.02 [psi], ser ms eficiente quien
consuma menor potencia. En nuestro caso, la RL40257. Pero hay un segundo criterio
importante.
2. Velocidad de giro: Como se sabe, los motores sincrnicos giran a 3600, 1800, 1200 y 900
[rpm]. Tendramos dos opciones:
a. Acoplar directamente la bomba HL4197 que gira a 1347 [rpm] a un motor de 1200
[rpm], lo que representa una prdida de flujo de 2.73 [gpm]* Si sta prdida no es
significativa para el sistema, se puede optar por sta opcin, porque evita el costo
adicional de un moto-reductor y adems facilita el montaje. El consumo de
potencia sera de 3.38 [HP], con lo que podramos seleccionar un motor de 4 [HP]
(Si se consigue, porque generalmente estn de 3 y de 5 HP)
b. Por el otro lado, podemos conseguir un motor de 1800 [rpm] con un motoreductor de 15:1 para poder usar la bomba de mejor eficiencia, es decir, la
RL40257 que gira a 115 [rpm]. El consumo de potencia se incrementara por la
prdida en el moto-reductor. Hay muchos fabricantes de moto-reductores, en
nuestro caso buscamos a SEW Eurodrive, quien ofrece muy buena informacin.

Encontramos un moto-reductor que nos lleva hasta 113 [rpm] y es de la serie MC3R.

* Prdida de Flujo: Por la proporcionalidad entre el flujo y las revoluciones de la bomba se tiene
que:

Q = Q

n
1200
= 25
= 22.27[gpm ]

n
1347

La eficiencia del moto-reductor se puede encontrar en los datos del fabricante:

Por lo tanto, nuestra eficiencia es de 0.955 y la potencia del motor debe ser de

Pot =

1.74[HP ]
= 1.82[HP ]
0.955

Conclusin:
Hay que hacer un estudio econmico de las alternativas, analizando los costos de inversin y de
operacin. Despus de ello podemos elegir la bomba correcta.
Inversin
Costo de Operacin

Opcin 1: HL4197
Motor de 4 [HP]
+ Costo de la Bomba
Consumo de 3.38 [HP]

Opcin 2: RL40257
Motor de 2 [HP] + Moto-reductor.
+ Costo de la Bomba
Consumo de 1.82 [HP]

Si nuestro anlisis arrojara la RL40257 (o cualquier otra) podemos observar la grfica de Potencia
Vs Velocidad de giro en el punto de funcionamiento:

Y tambin podemos ver el punto de funcionamiento en la grfica de Caudal Vs RPM

Bomba Rotativa de Lbulos


SELECCIN DE BOMBAS ROTATIVAS DE LOBULOS
Seleccin de bombas utilizando las graficas para agua:
Paso 1 Velocidad, rpm
Comience desde eje en el extremo izquierdo (Flujo LPM) a la capacidad requerida, trace una lnea
totalmente horizontal hasta cruzar con la lnea slida de flujo-velocidad (de color rojo) a la diferencial de
presin (en bares). En esta interseccin, trace una lnea vertical hacia abajo para determinar la velocidad
de la bomba en rpm.

Paso 2 Potencia, kW
Comience nuevamente por el extremo izquierdo (Flujo LPM) a la capacidad requerida, trace una lnea
horizontal a lo largo hasta cruzar con las lneas punteadas de flujo-potencia absorbida (de color verde) a
la diferencial de presin. En esta interseccin trace una lnea vertical hacia arriba para determinar la
potencia absorbida.

Bomba Rotativa de Lbulos


Ejemplo: flujo requerido de 50 LPM de H2O con una viscosidad de 1 cP contra una presin diferencial de
3 bar, utilice una bomba de lbulos ZL-220:

Paso 1 Velocidad
Localice los 50 LPM en el eje del flujo del lado izquierdo, trace una lnea horizontal a todo lo largo hasta
cruzar la lnea de diferencial de presin correspondiente a 3 bar, esta va paralela entre las lneas de 2 y 4
bar. Trace una lnea vertical hacia abajo en el punto de la interseccin para determinar la velocidad cuyo
valor se puede leer como 320 rpm.

Paso 2 Potencia
Comience con los 50 LPM desde el eje del flujo, trace una lnea horizontal hasta cortar con las lnea
punteada de 3 bar (lnea de flujo-potencia absorbida de color verde) la cual se ubica entre las lneas de 2
y 4 bar. En esta interseccin trace una lnea vertical hacia arriba para determinar la potencia absorbida
en el eje superior, la cual se puede leer como 0.75 kW.

Seleccin de bombas para lquidos viscosos:


Paso 1 Velocidad, rpm
Cuando manejemos otros fluidos diferentes al agua, con viscosidades mayores, utilice las curvas de
correccin de viscosidad en la parte superior derecha de las graficas.

Caso 1: Si la viscosidad es de 1 cP y la presin diferencial de 12 bar, entonces seleccione la velocidad


utilizando la lnea de presin de 12 bar.

Caso 2: Si la viscosidad es de 300 cP y la presin diferencial de 6 bar, entonces seleccione la velocidad


utilizando la lnea de presin de 0 bar.

Caso 3: Si la viscosidad es de 20 cP y la presin diferencial de 8 bar, entonces seleccione la velocidad


utilizando la lnea de presin de 2 bar.

Podemos apreciar en la grafica correspondiente a la bomba ZL-220/34/12 que, cuando se excede la


viscosidad de 300 cP, el Slip en la bomba es casi despreciable, por lo tanto se debe utilizar la lnea de
presin de 0.0 bar para cualquier presin diferencial.

Bomba Rotativa de Lbulos


Paso 2 Potencia, kW
Para calcular la potencia total que necesitamos para mover el fluido en el caso de viscosidades diferentes
a la del agua, es necesario determinar el factor de correccin de viscosidad V, para lo cual podemos
utilizar la siguiente tabla y posteriormente la siguiente formula.
Factor de viscosidad V

COMPARACIN DE LAS BOMBAS


MOYNO, VIKING Y Q-PUMPS

Vamos a usar el mismo ejemplo que hemos venido usando a lo largo de ste compendio.
Se requiere seleccionar una bomba de desplazamiento positivo para ser utilizada en un proceso de
embotellado de una salsa de 1344 cP con una gravedad especfica de 1.065. La capacidad de cada
botella es de 4.75 litros y el tiempo de llenado es de 3 segundos. Si la tubera tiene una longitud
equivalente de 10 pies en la succin y 100 pies en la descarga, determine:
a) Los dimetros de las tuberas de succin y descarga
b) La velocidad de la bomba
c) La potencia consumida
La instalacin es como se muestra en la figura:

Ya sabemos que el caudal del sistema es de 25 [gpm]


Hay que tener en cuenta que la tubera de impulsin que estamos utilizando de 2 podra ser
reducida a 1 disminuyendo costos. Veremos en qu influye este cambio. Para Moyno, por
ejemplo, tendremos que aumentar el nmero de etapas (Ya veremos si a 2 4). Empecemos:
Prdidas:
La tubera de succin no podemos cambiarla, ser de 2. Miremos la tabla para calcular la prdida

Por lo tanto, en 10 [pies] de succin, tendremos una prdida de 49 [psi]


En la descarga, usaremos la tubera de 1 . Como son 100, tendremos una prdida de 127 [psi]
La presin debida a la carga esttica es de 13.1 [psi]
Por lo tanto,

p = H est + H f succ + H f desc


= 13.1 + 49 + 127
p = 189.1[ psi ]

La velocidad de rotacin de la bomba no depende del diferencial de presin, sino del caudal
impulsado. Por lo tanto, la aplicacin no cambiar su velocidad de 1340 [rpm]. Con 189 [psi]
tenemos que usar una bomba de 4 etapas (O pasar a la serie High Pressure Pumps). De la grfica,
para 4 etapas, tenemos un consumo de potencia de 6.4 [HP]. A ese valor, debemos agregarle la
correccin por viscosidad que es de 0.641 y la potencia consumida por los rodamientos que es de
0.536 [HP], entonces

Pot = 6.4 + 0.641 + 0.536 = 7.577[HP]

Pot = 7.577[HP ]

2. Presin diferencial de 189 [psi]
3. Temperatura de 25 C
4. Gravedad Especfica de 1.065
5. Flujo de 25 [GPM]
El resultado de Viking es el siguiente:

Ahora vamos a seleccionar una bomba Q-Pumps:

Con este flujo vamos a la carta de preseleccin:

Para la potencia de las bombas Q-Pumps se aplica la siguiente ecuacin:

Donde

N es la potencia en [KW]

y C es el Flujo en [lt/rev]

La presin diferencial es de

189[ psi ]
= 13.29 [Kgf/cm2]

El factor de Viscosidad lo tomamos de grfica (Entrando con 1344 cP):

Por lo tanto, el factor de viscosidad es de 5.


Velocidad de la Bomba:
Para ello, vamos a la grfica de las bombas de la serie 220 (El flujo es de 25*3.79 [litros/gal] =
94.75[lpm])

Tenemos entonces la bomba girando a 250 [rpm]. Miremos las mximas rpms recomendadas:

Ahora vamos al flujo por revolucin: Para una bomba de la serie 220 tenemos que el flujo por

Blackmer Fluid Processing and Transfer Pumps


The Blackmer Pump Story

Self-adjusting vanes sustain performance

Blackmer was first established in 1903, and has been


manufacturing rotary pumps since that time. In 1965,
Blackmer became a division of the Dover Corporation,
a U.S. Fortune 500 Company and a diversified producer
of capital goods.

The performance of gear pumps will constantly


diminish as wear increases clearances. To compensate
for the reduced performance, you must increase the
pump speed (which further accelerates pump wear) or
tolerate reduced capacity until performance drops to a
totally unacceptable level. The vanes on a Blackmer
pump automatically slide out in their rotor slots to
continuously adjust for wear, as shown in Figure 2.
No more speeding up to compensate for reduced flow,
and no more putting up with poor performance.
Blackmer pumps maintain near-original efficiency
and capacity throughout the life of the vanes.

Today, Blackmer is the worlds leading manufacturer of


rotary vane pumps. The company offers the best combined
characteristics of sustained high level performance; energy
efficiency, trouble-free operation and low maintenance
cost. Blackmer pumps are widely used by the U.S. defense
agencies, and have long been the preferred technology
for transfer, transport and delivery of petroleum products
and liquefied gases. Blackmers unique sliding vane
design is now recognized worldwide for handling
industrial process fluids, Volatile Organic Compounds,
abrasive slurries and viscous liquids.

Vane compensates for wear


by sliding further out of rotor slot

World-class quality ISO 9001 Certified

New
Vane

Blackmers worldwide reputation for superior product


quality begins with extensive research and development,
computer-aided design, and integrated manufacturing
capabilities. Blackmer operates its own modern foundry
and metallurgical laboratory. Computerized machine
tools and statistical process controls (SPC) are used
throughout the manufacturing process to ensure the
highest quality standards.

FIGURE 2. How Blackmers sliding vanes maintain efficiency

Efficiency means energy savings


The high volumetric efficiency and symmetrical bearing
support of Blackmer pumps means they require less
horsepower than other positive displacement pumps.
So, you spend less on motors initially and less on
electricity to operate the pumps once they are installed.
How much less? Typically a Blackmer pump may require
up to 30% less power than other positive displacement
pump types in handling fluids from 30 to 500,000 ssu
(1 to 108,000 cSt).

All Blackmer pumps are produced and tested in


conformance with ISO 9001 certification.

How Blackmer sliding vane pumps achieve


high volumetric efficiency
As shown in Figure 1, Blackmer pumps use a rotor with
sliding vanes, which draw the liquid in behind each vane,
through the inlet port and into the pumping chamber. As
the rotor turns, the liquid is transferred between the vanes
to the outlet where it is discharged. Each vane provides a
positive mechanical and hydraulic push to the liquid.

Symmetrical bearing support and rugged


construction assures reliable performance
Blackmer pumps are available with grease lubricated ball
or roller bearings and mechanical shaft seals. Models are
also available with external gland bearings or internal
self-lubricating sleeve bearings, which have small vacuum
passages in the heads to assure bearing lubrication
and cooling.

Vanes are actuated by three forces: (1) centrifugal force


from the rotors rotation, (2) push rods moving between
opposing pairs of vanes, and (3) liquid pressure entering
through the vane grooves and acting on the rear of the
vanes. Each revolution of a Blackmer pump displaces a
constant volume of fluid. Variance in pressure has minimal
effect. Energy-wasting turbulence and slippage are
minimized and high volumetric efficiency is maintained.

Blackmer mechanically sealed pumps are often the first


choice for demanding applications, such as abrasives,
viscous or thin, non-lubricating fluids. Blackmer
manufactures its own mechanical seals to match the
criteria of the application, and
Blackmer seals are designed as
an integral component of the
pump. This unique design
isolates the pumpage from
the bearings, maintains
seal face alignment and
maximizes seal flushing
for cooling. The result
is optimum seal and
bearing life.

FIGURE 1. How Blackmers sliding vane action works

Vane replacement in minutes, easy


maintenance

Abrasive fluids
Blackmer wear-resistant pump models have specially
hardened and replaceable wear surfaces. Low speed
operation and external bearings that are completely
isolated from the pumpage provide extended life on
tough abrasive service.

Vane replacement, when necessary, is easy. Simply


remove the outer head, slide out the old vanes, insert
the new ones, and reinstall the head. In a matter of
minutes, your pump is back in operation. Routine
inspection is equally as easy.

Sealing options

Several Blackmer pump models are equipped with


replaceable liners and end discs. They protect the pump
casing and offer the economy of simple replacement,
restoring the pump to like-new efficiency, should the
liner ever show significant wear.

A wide selection of Blackmer mechanical seal options are


available for a broad range of application requirements.
Commercial mechanical seals in single or multiple
configurations, shaft packing, lip seals or triple lip
seals are also available for select pump models.

Self-priming and dry run capability

Seal-less option

Blackmers unique mechanical seal and seal-less designs


allow dry running for priming and line stripping.
The self-adjusting sliding vanes help maintain this
capability for consistent priming.

Blackmer also offers a line of magnetically coupled


pumps that provide zero shaft leakage of expensive,
hazardous or toxic fluids.

Materials of construction

Volatile Organic Compounds

Blackmer pumps are offered in cast iron, ductile iron,


or 316 stainless steel construction.

Blackmer sliding vane pumps have long been the


preferred pump technology for handling Volatile Organic
Compounds (VOCs), and a wide range of thin products.
Since Blackmer pumps are designed with no metal-tometal contact, they are ideal for handling non-lubricating
fluids efficiently.

Technical assistance
The chart below gives recommended pump types for
fluids commonly handled by Blackmer pumps. This is
only a partial list and, in some applications, selecting
the right pump may require more detailed information
than is presented here. Blackmer has a worldwide
stocking distributor network and a staff of Application
Engineers to assist you in specifying the proper pump
for your application. Please log on to our website,
www.blackmer.com, for the name of the nearest
distributor in your area.

High viscosity or shear sensitive fluids


Blackmer pumps are ideal for handling viscous or shear
sensitive fluids. Slow operating speeds, hydraulic vane
actuation and high efficient design minimize shear and
agitation of the liquid.

Heavy-Duty, Ductile Iron Pumps


Blackmer XL, MLX and HXL pump models are
commonly used in refineries, lube oil plants and
general industry for processing, filling and transfer
applications. These models are constructed of ductile
iron that will withstand sudden thermal shock and
stress well beyond the capabilities of cast iron. All
models feature replaceable casing liners and end discs

that allow easy rebuilding of the pumping chamber


to like new condition, without removing the pump
from the piping. The XL, MLX and HXL models are
fitted with Blackmer mechanical seals, and external
grease lubricated ball or spherical roller bearings.

Wear-Resistant, Abrasive Liquid Pumps


Blackmer wear-resistant pumps are specially designed
for handling liquids with suspended abrasive
particles, such as inks, paints, crude oil, waste oils
and solvents. These models are constructed with
specially hardened and replaceable wear surfaces
for extended service life. All models have ductile iron
construction with replaceable liners and end discs
for quick, easy replacement.

The XLW and MLX models are fitted with external


grease lubricated ball or roller bearings, and feature
special Blackmer abrasion-resistant mechanical seals,
which are an integral component of the pump. This
construction minimizes seal face movement, and
completely isolates the bearings from the pumpage.

316 Stainless Steel Pumps


Blackmer SNP and SMVP pump models are typically
used in handling a wide variety of corrosive or caustic
fluids, and liquid foods such as sugars, syrups and
flavor extracts. Both series have 316 stainless steel
construction and self-lubricating carbon sleeve bearings
which allow dry running for priming and line stripping.
All models are fitted with PTFE seal rings,
replaceable end discs and non-metallic vanes that
eliminate galling and provide extended pump life.

2 12 -inch port size. ANSI compatible flanges are standard


on sizes through 2 12 -inches. The SNP3 has an internal
relief valve and weld companion flanges.
For control of fugitive emissions, the SMVP seal-less
series is offered with samarium cobalt magnetic
couplings that assure zero shaft leakage. Blackmer
SMVP pumps provide the Best Available Control
Technology for handling expensive, hazardous or
toxic fluids.

The SNP models are available with PTFE impregnated


shaft packing, lip seals, triple lip seals, lantern rings
or commercial mechanical seals. An optional twoway relief valve is available on all models through

ANSI compatible flanges are standard on all SMVP


pump models.

X = External Bearings.
B = Foot Mounted (1 Inch Pumps Only).
F = C-Face Motor Mounting.
Used for general transfer duty, this pump
line is available in port sizes from 1 inch
to 4 inch, flows from 3 gpm to 510 gpm,
temperatures to 300F, and relief valve
pressures to 125 psi. Only the XF1A &
XF1PA are available for mounting to a CFace motor.

G = Gear Reducer.
X = External Bearings.
This configuration allows for easy base
fabrication in the field as only one
coupling set and guard is required. Used
for general transfer duty, this pump line
is available in four sizes with port sizes
from 2 to 4 inch, flows from 5 to 510
gpm, temperatures to 300F, and relief
valve pressures to 125 psi.

NP
NP(J)
N = Internal Bearings.
P = Shaft Packing.
J = Heating Jacket.
This pump is used where high temperature, high pressure, high viscosity, and/or
shaft sealing requirements dictate a sleeve bearing pump are used. Used for many
different materials and applications, this pump line is available 5 sizes with port
sizes from 1 inch to 4 inch, flows from 3 gpm to 512 gpm, temperatures to
500F and relief valve pressures to 200 psi (the MLN4 could be included in this line
as well). Heating jackets are available if required to protect the pump bearings and
seal from cold start up when used on high viscosity products.

MLN
MLN
M = Modular configuration.
L = Liner.
N = Internal Bearings.
R = Reduced Capacity.
J = Heating Jacket.
This pump was to be the first in the line of true industrial pumps produced by
Blackmer in many years. Currently two configurations are available, the MLX and
MLN. This pump allows reconfiguration in the field from a NP style pump to a XL
using interchangeable hubs that carry the bearing and shaft sealing area. This

This pump is used in industrial process and transfer applications where abrasive
materials are present in the fluid. With replaceable end discs and liner, this pump
can be renewed to like new condition without removing the pump casing from the
piping system. Various hard mechanical seal components are available for shaft
sealing. This pump line is available with port sizes from 1 to 4 inch (MLXW4
pump), temperatures to 300F, flows from 3 gpm to 280 gpm, and relief valve
pressures to 150 psi.

This pump was to be the first in the line of true industrial pumps produced by
Blackmer in many years. Currently two configurations are available, the MLX and
MLN. This pump allows reconfiguration in the field from a NP style pump to a XL
using interchangeable hubs that carry the bearing and shaft sealing area. This
pump has a viscosity range from 30 ssu to 500,000 ssu, flows from 35 gpm to 565
gpm, temperatures to 400F and relief valve pressures to 225 psi. Models from 2 to
8 inch were planned but never pursued. Heating jackets are available if required to
protect the pump bearings and seal from cold start up when used on high viscosity
products.

VACUUM LIMITATIONS
ON BLACKMER PUMPS

Feb. 1971

Intake pressure requirements on centrifugal pumps are determined by the manufacturer and
called Net Positive Suction Head Required (NPSHR). This is compared with the NPSH
Available to determine the suitability of the intake conditions. For several reasons that
procedure does not easily lend itself to use in positive displacement pump applications. What
follows is the system for determining the intake requirements for Blackmer Pumps.
There are five principle factors which affect the maximum vacuum:
1. Pump Speed
2. Altitude above sea level
3. Vapor pressure of the liquid
4. Viscosity
5. Entrained and dissolved air or gas in the liquid
1. The table below shows the maximum desirable vacuum on different sizes of Blackmer
pumps, at different speeds, at an altitude of sea level, and at zero vapor pressure.

2. Subtract from these values 1 inch Hg for every 1,000 feet of elevation.
3. Subtract also the vapor pressure of the liquid at the pumping temperature expressed in
inches Hg.

www.blackmer.com

Vapor pressure expressed in inches Hg. is often not readily available. A frequently used
measure is Reid Vapor Pressure. The scale below can be used as an approximate
conversion of Reid vapor (in PSIA at 100F.) to vapor pressure in inches Hg.
VAPOR PRESSURE

INCHES HG.

REID VAPOR PRESSURE

P.S.I.

Another frequently used measure of vapor pressure is millimeters of mercury. This can be
converted to inches Hg. by dividing by 25.4.
Millimeters of Mercury / 25.4 = Inches Hg.
The graph on page 50/4 shows vapor pressure for several solvents over a broad
temperature range. You will notice that many of the lines have a similar slope. If you have
the vapor pressure of a solvent at only one temperature which is not the pumping
temperature the general slope of the lines on the graph may help you to better estimate
the vapor pressure of that solvent at pumping temperature. An example of how this is done
is shown at the lower right hand corner of the graph.
On page 5 is a graph that can be used to determine the approximate vapor pressure of
automotive gasoline at various temperatures when the Reid vapor pressure is known. For
instance if the gasoline's Reid vapor pressure is 10, the vapor pressure at 70F. liquid
temperature is 13 inches Hg.
For estimating purposes you may assume that automotive gasoline has an average Reid
vapor pressure of 9 PSI in the summer, 11 PSI in the spring and fall, and 13 PSI in the
winter.
4. The selection data tables for each industrial pump show the speed Limitations for all
viscosities. Generally, no other adjustment for viscosity is necessary. However, if you are
handling a highly viscous liquid which is also highly volatile, consult with the factory for a
recommendation.
5. The amount of entrained and dissolved air in the liquid is indeterminate. However, it does
have a definite effect on efficiency and operation of a pump. If the proposed installation is
an underground tank, which is filled periodically by draining liquid from a transport truck, the
falling of the liquid in the space above the liquid level in the tank will cause air to become
mixed with the liquid. Some types of liquid will retain this air in a dissolved condition,
invisible to the eye, for much longer times than others. Fuel oils and lube oils are typical
examples. The critical vacuum for any pump handling furnace oil or diesel oil is often 2 or 3
inches Hg. less than the table shown because of this factor.
Pumps operating right at vacuums shown will cavitate to the extent of about a 10% loss of
rated capacity but will operate at generally satisfactory noise levels. Pumps operating at
less vacuum will operate at capacities proportionately closer to the rated capacity of the
pump. Pumps will deliver liquid at higher vacuums but the capacity falls off very rapidly and
usually the noise level also increases. The 10% figure is only approximate because vapor
pressure is not a true measure of the amount of vapors given off by a liquid at any condition
of vacuum or pressure.
www.blackmer.com
50 page 2 / 6

In addition to the cavitation caused by vacuum, there will be the normal internal slip and
loss of capacity due to differential pressures between intake and discharge.
Actual capacities at higher vacuums CANNOT be estimated with any degree of accuracy.
Many times pumps are required to operate at vacuums higher than shown on this table.
For example, eight-inch pumps mounted on the deck of river barges operate under very
severe conditions. Vacuums often run 4 to 6 inches higher than that shown in the table.
There is usually considerable vibration in pumps mounted on the decks of barges but in
spite of the severe operating conditions, the pumps do a remarkably good job and are fairly
durable. Vanes are replaced in barge pumps much more frequently, however, than when
the same pump is used under better conditions.
When computing an installation of a pump lifting liquid from an underground tank, vacuum
is computed on the basis of pipe friction plus the actual lift from the bottom of the tank to
the center line of the pump. Often this total vacuum at the pump will be equal to or exceed
slightly the figures in the table. This does not mean that you should rule out the installation.
Logically, an underground tank is usually partially filled. Therefore, most of the time the
pump will be operating within the acceptable range. It must be understood, however, that
when the liquid level does drop to the minimum point that the pump may make a little extra
noise and the pumping rate may fall off slightly.

Para fluidos no corrosivos, no abrasivos, lquidos industriales y
productos del petrleo.
- Trabajo Pesado
Comnmente usadas en refineras, plantas de lubricantes y la
industria en general para aplicaciones de proceso, llenado y
transferencia.
- Bombas para fluidos Abrasivos: Especialmente diseadas para manejo de fluidos con
partculas abrasivas en suspensin como tintas, pinturas, crudo,
aceites usados y solventes.
- Bombas de Acero Inoxidable: Son usadas para un amplio rango de fluidos corrosivos o
custicos y lquidos alimenticios como azcares, melazas y
saborizantes.
Entonces usaremos la serie de Acero Inoxidable, dado que nuestro producto es alimenticio. En el
boletn de bombas Blackmer podemos encontrar una tabla de preseleccin para cada una de las
clasificaciones anteriores.

Segn la tabla, el modelo SNP1.25 no satisface las necesidades de caudal, mientras que el SNP 1.5
es suficiente. Revisemos las curvas de desempeo de ste modelo:

Las curvas vienen dadas para ciertas velocidades estndar. As estn hechas porque Blackmer
ofrece el motor acoplado a la bomba.

Casualmente, la bomba girando a 1200 [rpm] satisface el flujo del sistema. Si no hubiera sido as,
tendramos dos opciones:
1. Seleccionar la bomba acoplada con el motor con la velocidad de rotacin mayor y
estrangular el flujo hasta 25 [gpm] (Lo cual se refleja en un aumento de la potencia
consumida por la bomba)
2. Seleccionar la velocidad de rotacin de la bomba adecuada. Para ello se debe iterar entre
los valores hallados anteriormente, buscando el caudal ideal.

compared to other pump designs with similar output flows.
This provides the three-screw pump an inherent advantage in
negative suction pressure applications, allowing the pumping
of higher viscosity fluids at much higher speeds than other
pumping technologies.

Low Horsepower Consumption


The small peripheral diameters of the rotors and low fluid
axial velocities reduce fluid shearing within the pump, resulting
in a reduction of horsepower consumption while operating on

Emtec: Advanced Technology for Long Service Life


Emtec pumps are specifically designed to withstand
the harsh environment of high pressure machine tool
coolant service. Special hardening techniques produce
a surface hardness similar to ceramic in the housing
bores while maintaining elasticity that eliminates the
danger of bore surface fracture. The hardening process
of the rotor set includes PVD* treatment that results
in a surface hardness of 1200HV. The Emtec pump is
fully hydrodynamically balanced which eliminates
thrust loads due to differential pressure. The power

rotors balance piston is extra long which improves the


pumps volumetric efficiency. Flow that crosses the
balance piston serves to cool and lubricate the silicon
carbide mechanical shaft seal faces. In applications
where the DQ version is utilized, the shaft seal is
eliminated to further reduce cost. Flow that passes
across the balance piston is vented from the pump
and into the reservoir. In this design, a labyrinth ring
on the fluid side of the ball bearing prevents coolant
splash from washing out the bearing grease.

Imo Series 8L Pump: Critical fluid-handling applications


110 to 2900 gpm (25 - 660 m3/h), pressure to 2000 psig (138 bar-g)

You need to save energy costs. You need to operate with very high efficiencies. Imo 8L series pumps are designed for pipeline
transport in medium to high pressure service on crude oils, fuel oils and other petroleum products. Pumps consistently operate
with very high efficiencies, typically over 80%. Energy costs are a significant portion of total pipeline operating expenses. Utilizing
8L series pumps from Colfax can appreciably reduce these costs when compared to centrifugal pumps. The 8L series also finds
extensive use in steam/electric power plants as the burner pumps supplying fuel to the boilers. Many systems are equipped to
handle distillate fuel oil, low sulfur and residual oils with standard Imo 8L pumps. This flexibility allows optimum fuel use depending
on price and availability.

EJEMPLO DE SELECCIN

Se requiere seleccionar una bomba de tres tornillos IMO para transporte de 140 [gpm] de Fuel Oil
Medium en la siguiente instalacin:

La diferencia de alturas en los dos niveles es de 15 [m]


La longitud de succin se puede despreciar dado que la bomba opera muy cerca al tanque inferior.
La longitud de la tubera de descarga es de 25 [m] y la vlvula que se muestra es de compuerta. El
dimetro en succin y descarga es de 2
Seleccione la bomba que cumpla los requerimientos del sistema y calcule su velocidad de rotacin
y potencia consumida.

Datos de la Instalacin:
Tenemos la longitud real de la tubera y queremos hallar la longitud total equivalente.
Accesorios:
- Entrada de tubera
- Vlvula de compuerta
- Codos de 45 (2)
- Codos de 90 (2)
- Salida de tubera

Buscamos la longitud equivalente para cada accesorio en una grfica como la que ofrece el libro
de Crane (Flujo de fluidos en Vlvulas, Accesorios y Tuberas).
El factor de friccin para la tubera de 2 es de 0.018. Con este valor podemos calcular la
constante K para cada accesorio.

Entrada de Tubera
Vlvula de Compuerta

K = 0.78
K = 8*0.018 = 0.144

Codos de 45
Codos de 90
Salida de Tubera

K = 16*0.018 = 0.288
K = 30*0.018 = 0.54
K=1

Con los anteriores valores de K vamos al nomograma de longitudes equivalentes. De all podemos
obtener los siguientes datos:
- Entrada de Tubera
Le = 2.8 [m]
- Vlvula de Compuerta
Le = 0.5 [m]
- Codos de 45
Le = 1.0 [m] (Total 2.0 [m])
- Codos de 90
Le = 2.0 [m] (Total 4.0 [m])
- Salida de Tubera
Le = 3.6 [m]
Longitud Equivalente de los Accesorios: 12.9 [m]
Longitud Total Equivalente de la Tubera de Descarga: 37.9 [m]

Prdidas en la Tubera:
Usamos las tablas de consulta rpida:
La viscosidad de 520 [cSt] equivale a 2410 [SSU] (Multiplicando por el factor 4.6347)

Interpolando para 2410 [SSU], las prdidas son de 0.92 [psi/pie de tubera], multiplicado por los
124.3 pies de tubera (37.9 [m]), las prdidas de presin en tuberas vienen siendo de 114.8 [psi]
Presin Diferencial de la Bomba
El trabajo de la bomba consiste en transportar el fluido de un tanque a otro venciendo las prdidas
de presin en la tubera y la diferencia de altura entre los dos tanques.

p = H f + pest
pest = H 2O SG h

= 9810 N m 3 0.99 15[m]


= 145.68[KPa ] = 21.1[ psi ]
Entonces,

p = H f + pest
p = 135.9[ psi ]
Usamos la tabla de preseleccin de bombas de tres tornillos IMO, la cual nos ubica en el modelo
que debemos usar, sabiendo el diferencial de presin de la bomba (137.1 psi) y el caudal que
maneja (140 gpm)

Como nuestra presin es inferior a 150 psi, cualquier bomba nos servira (usando el primer
criterio: Presin mxima). Descartamos el modelo ACE y 3E porque el caudal mximo que manejan
no satisface las necesidades del problema y entonces usaremos el modelo UCF, el cual maneja
hasta 800 [gpm] y 175 [psi]. Buscando las tablas de desempeo de dicho modelo encontramos que
se ofrece con diferentes tamaos de rotor: 080N, 090N, 100N, 100L, 110N, 125L, 125N, los cuales
estn listados en orden ascendente. Usaremos el rotor de menor tamao (080N), ya que satisface
sin problemas las necesidades de caudal (Ya veremos porque).
El fabricante nos ofrece la bomba acoplada a diferentes motores: 1750 y 1150 [rpm] (El motor a
1450 [rpm] se usa para 50 [Hz]). Podemos buscar el caudal impulsado con uno u otro motor:
Para 1750 [rpm]

Interpolando para 2410 [SSU]


100 [psi]
150 [psi]

150 [psi]

133.4 [gpm]
132.4 [gpm]

Interpolando para 135.9 [psi]


132.7 [gpm]

Nuestra situacin requiere 140 [gpm], por lo que la bomba girando a 1150 [rpm] no satisface la
necesidad y a 1750 [rpm] est muy por encima. Tenemos dos posibilidades: Comprar la bomba
girando a mayor velocidad y estrangular el flujo o buscar el punto ptimo de funcionamiento. La
segunda opcin es ms econmica en consumo de potencia, pero es ah cuando entra la decisin
del ingeniero.

La segunda opcin planteada:


Al ser una bomba de desplazamiento positivo (Caudal proporcional a la velocidad de rotacin de la
mquina) podemos encontrar el punto ptimo de funcionamiento as:

De donde se obtiene la velocidad de rotacin: 1210 [rpm]


La potencia consumida puede hallarse interpolando en la tabla
Para 1750 [rpm]

A 150 [psi]

A 150 [psi]

Para 137.1 [psi]

Entonces, Para 1210 [rpm], Potencia consumida = 16.3 [HP]

Bombas reciprocantes
Terry L. Henshaw, Unin Pump

Las bombas reciprocantes (alternativas) se utilizan en


numerosas aplicaciones que exceden la capacidad de las
bombas centrfugas o rotatorias. Algunos servicios se podran efectuar con una centrfuga o rotatoria, pero a expensas de un aumento en los requisitos de potencia y de
mantenimiento. Debido a los altos costos de la energa,
la bomba de potencia, con su elevada eficiencia mecAnica, se utiliza cada vez ms en muchas aplicaciones.
Una bomba reciprocante es de desplazamiento positivo, es decir, recibe un volumen fijo de lquido en condiciones casi de succin, lo comprime a la presin de
descarga y lo expulsa por la boquilla de descarga. En estas bombas se logra por el movimiento alternativo de un
pistn, mbolo o diafragma.
La bomba reciprocante no es cintica como la centrfu g a y no requiere velocidad para producir presin,
pues se pueden obtener presiones altas a bajas velocidades. Esta es una de las ventajas de la bomba reciprocante en particular para manejar pastas aguadas abrasivas
y lquidos muy viscosos.
En la bomba de potencia se hace alternar el elemento
de bombeo con una manivela o un cigeal. Esta bomba se mueve con un propulsor con eje rotatorio, como
motor elctrico, de combustin interna o turbina.
La bomba de accin directa se impulsa con un fluidomotor por medio de presin diferencial. Como estas bombas, originalmente, eran para impulsarlas con vapor, como la mayor parte de las bombas, se les llamaba bomba
de vapor, no porque bombearan vapor, sino porque ste
las impulsaba.
Desde hace bastantes aos se han utilizado otros gases
como fluidos-motores. El gas combutible que, en otra for21 de sephnbre de 1981

Co.

ma, se enviara con un regulador de presin para servicio de la planta, a menudo se enva a la bomba de accin
directa para que funcione gratis. El aire comprimido
se utiliza con frecuencia para impulsar bombas pequeas en servicios como pruebas hidrostticas y dosificacin de productos qumicos.

Razones para utilizar bombas


reciprocantes
La justificacin para seleccionar una bomba reciprocante, en vez de una centrfuga o una rotatoria debe ser

BOMBAS DE DESPLAZAMIENTO POSITIVO

el costo; no slo el costo inicial sino el costo total, incluso


los costos de energa y mantenimiento.
Algunas aplicaciones se prestan mejor para bombas reciprocantes. Los servicios tpicos incluyen limpieza con
agua a alta presin (20 gpm a 10 000 psig), inyeccin de
glicoles (5 gpm a 1 000 psig), carga con amoniaco (40
gpm a 4 000 psig). Otra aplicacin en donde es casi obligatoria la bomba reciprocante es para pastas aguadas
abrasivas o materiales muy viscosos a ms de unas 500
psig. Los ejemplos son desde pasta aguada de carbn hasta mantequilla de cacahuate (man).
La mejor caracterstica de la bomba de potencia es su
alta eficiencia, pues suele ser de 85 a 94 %. La prdida
de 10% incluye todas las que ocurren en las bandas, engranes, cojinetes, empaquetaduras y vlvulas.
&a caracterstica de la bomba reciprocante es que la
en-,futncin de la velocidad y es ms o meente,de la presin de descarga. Por ello,
otencia de velocidad constante que mueve
psig podr manejar cerca de 100 gpm a
3 000 psig.
La bomba de accin directa tiene algunas ventajas ms
que la bomba de potencia. Se usa para aplicaciones con
alta presin y bajo flujo. Las presiones de descarga suelen ser ente 300 y 5 000 psig, pero pueden exceder 10 000
psig. La capacidad es proporcional a la velocidad entre
el punto al freno y la mxima, sin que importe la presin de ahogo. La velocidad se controla con la estrangulacin del fluido-motor. Suelen ser autocebantes, en
particular el tipo de bajo volumen del espacio de funcionamiento.
En las bombas de accin directa casi no influyen las
condiciones desfavorables, como vapores corrosivos, pues
no tienen cubierta de cojinetes, caja de cigeal o depsito de aceite, salvo las que necesitan un lubricador. Algunas bombas de accin directa que quedaron cubiertas
por una inundacin accidental, han seguido funcionando sin efectos dainos. Estas bombas son silenciosas, de
fcil mantenimiento y sus bajas velocidades y construccin fuerte les dan larga duracin.
Las bombas de potencia y de accin directa, con conexiones y accesorios especiales para trabajo a baja velocidad se han empleado con buenos resultados para pastas
aguadas abrasivas.
La baja eficiencia trmica de las bombas de accin directa suele, a veces, ser una ventaja. Cuando se las ac-

Bombas

ciona con vapor, se pierde muy poco calor entre la entrada


y la descarga. La temperatura en el escape es la misma
que se obtiene con estrangulacin. En los casos en que
se estrangula vapor a alta presin a una presin ms baja para calentamiento, por ejemplo, para desaerear agua
de alimentacin de calderas, el vapor se puede utilizar
para mover una bomba de accin directa y el vapor en
el escape se utiliza para el calentamiento. En este caso,
el lado de potencia (anillos de pistn, vlvulas, etc.) funciona sin lubricacin para que el vapor de la descarga
no contenga aceite.

Aplicaciones
Las aplicaciones tpicas de las bombas reciprocantes
son:
Carga deglicoles. El etilenglicol o el trietilenglicol se bombea a un absorbedor a unas 1 000 psig para eliminar la
humedad del gas natural. El glicol absorbe el agua, se
lo estrangula a presin atmosfrica y se lo calienta para
eliminar el agua. Despus, se enfra y se devuelve con
la bomba al absorbedor. Para este servicio se utilizan
bombas de potencia con motor y reciprocantes de accin
directa.
Carga de aminas. La monoetanolamina, otras aminas y
los absorbentes patentados eliminan el sulfuro de hidrgeno y el dixido de carbono del gas natural. Se bombea
el absorbente hacia un absorbedor a unas 1 000 psig y
produce una accin similar a la de los glicoles. En las plantas grandes para tratamiento de gas se suelen utilizar
bombas centrfugas; en las pequeas, son ms adecuadas las bombas de potencia propulsadas por motor
elctrico.
Petrleo pobre. El aceite para absorcin se utiliza igual
que los glicoles y aminas pero absorbe los hidrocarburos
como butano, propano y etano del gas natural.
Inyeccin de agua salada. Un mtodo que se utiliza mucho para la recuperacin secundaria de petrleo y gas en
los campos casi agotados, es inundar los yacimientos con
agua, por lo general, agua salada en pozos perifricos para
obligar a los hidrocarburos a moverse hacia el pozo central. En los campos pequeos se utilizan bombas de potencia.
Eliminacin de agua salada. Se suelen utilizar bombas de
potencia para bombear el agua salada a un pozo para eliminarla.

BOMBAS RECIPROCANTES
Evitadores de reventones. Los evitadores de reventones, hidrulicos, siempre estn listos durante la perforacin de
pozos de petrleo y gas para cerrar el pozo si se inicia
el llamado reventn. La potencia hidrulica se aplica con
bombas reciprocantes, con motor elctrico o neumtico.
La presin normal de funcionamiento es entre 1 000 y
3 000 psig.
Sistemas de oleoductosy gasoductos. Se utilizan bombas de
potencia para inyectar amoniaco o hidrocarburos ligeros
en estas tuberas. Se envan diversas pastas aguadas y petrleo crudo en las tuberas con bombas de potencia de
pistn y mbolo.
Sistemas hidrulicos. Se utiliza un lquido hidrulico, corno aceite soluble y agua en laminadoras de acero y petrleo difano (Keroseno) y aceite en las laminadoras de
aluminio, para colocar los rodillos de las laminadoras y
se emplean cilindros hidrulicos para mover el metal que
se lamina. Estos sistemas de cargas con bombas de potencia con motor a una presin entre 1 000 y 5 000 psig.
Produccin defertilizantes. Se utilizan bombas de potencia con prensaestopas especiales para bombear amoniaco a presiones hasta de 5 500 psig. Se utilizan bombas
de potencia con extremos para lquido hechos de acero
inoxidable y prensaestopas especiales para bombear carbamato de amonio a presiones hasta de 3 500 psig para la produccin de urea.
Limpieza. El agua a presiones entre 7 000 y 10 000 psig
enviada con bombas de potencia se utiliza para lavar equipos y estructuras.
Tambores deshidratadores. La bomba de accin directa,
de mnima holgura es muy adecuada para bombear los

hidrocarburos desde los tambores deshidratadores en las


refineras, debido a su velocidad variable y su baja carga
neta positiva de succin NPSH.
Pruebas hidrostticas. Se utilizan bombas de potencia y
de accin directa para las pruebas hidrostticas de equipos y sistemas. La bomba con mbolo de accin directa
es muy adecuada para este servicio porque se ahoga
a determinada presin y slo bombea si falla la presin.
Pastas aguadas. Se emplean bombas de potencia y de
accin directa par manejar pastas aguadas como mantequilla de cacahuate, detergentes, plsticos, carbn y minerales pulverizados en procesos y tuberas. Las presiones
pueden llegar hasta unas 10 000 psig y las temperaturas
a unos 700F.
Dosificacion. Se utilizan diversas configuraciones de
bombas de potencia y de accin directa para dosificar lquidos desde bombas grandes para tuberas con propulsin de velocidad variable y tambin las hay pequeas,
de volumen controlado para inyectar cantidades precisas de productos qumicos en la corriente de proceso.
Homogeneizacin. La leche y otros productos alimenticios y no alimenticios se homogeneizan para hacerlos
uniformes y evitar la separacin. Gran parte de la homogeneizacin se logra al bombear el material con una
bomba de potencia de mbolo hasta una alta presin y,
luego, con la estrangulacin con una 0 ms vlvulas especiales.

Desventajas de las bombas reciprocantes


Las bombas reciprocantes tienen ciertas desventajas y
la ms comn es el flujo a pulsaciones; por ello, se debe
tener cuidado en el diseo del sistema. Ms adelante en
este artculo aparece informacin al respecto.
En la mayora de las aplicaciones los costos inicial y
de mantenimiento de las bombas reciprocantes sern mayores que para las centrfugas 0 las rotatorias. La empaquetadura tpica en una bomba de potencia dura menos
de tres meses, o sea mucho menos que un sello mecnico
en un eje rotatorio.
La bomba de accin directa tiene baja eficiencia trmica
cuando se le impulsa con un gas como el vapor de agua.
La eficiencia mecnica (fuerza de salida dividida entre
la fuerza de entrada) es alta; pero, debido a que no tiene
ningn componente, como un volante, para almacenar
energa, el gas motor debe permanecer a la plena presin de entrada en el cilindro durante toda la carrera; al
final de la carrera se expande el gas hacia el tubo de es-1
cape, pero no efecta ningn trabajo durante la expansin. Por tanto, la energa trmica del gas se pierde por
friccin. El consumo aproximado de vapor de estas bonbas es de 100 lb/h por cada caballo hidrulico (hhp), es
decir, por cada caballo hidrulico producido en el extr emo de lquido, se necesitan unas 100 lb/h de vapor. Cuando el fluido-motor es gas natural o aire, el consumo es
alrededor de 3 500 ft estndar/(h) (hhp).
La mayora de los problemas con las bombas reciprocantes se pueden evitar con la seleccin de bombas que
trabajen a velocidades conservadoras, con diseo cuidadoso del sistema de bombeo y con mtodos de manteni-

Clasificacin de las bombas


Las bombas reciprocantes, por lo general, se clasifican por sus caractersticas:
w Extremo de impulsin, es decir, potencia o accin
directa.
I Orientacin de la lnea de.centros del elemento de
bombeo, es decir, horizontal o vertical.
n Nmero de carreras de descarga por ciclo de cada.

n
Configuracin del elemento de bombeo: pistn,
mbolo o diafragma.
n Nmero de varillas o bielas de mando, es decir,
smplex, dplex o mltiplex.
En la figura 1 se presenta la clasificacin en forma de
grfica. En la figura 2 se ilustran dos tipos de bombas
reciprocantes. En las figuras 3 y 4 aparecen cortes transversales de bombas de potencia y de accin directa, respectivamente.
El tamao de una bomba de potencia se indica primero con el dimetro del mbolo o pistn y despus la longitud de la carrera; en Estados Unidos se da en pulgadas.
Por ejemplo una bomba designada 2 x 3 tiene mbolo
de 2 in de dimetro y 3 in de carrera. En las bombas de
accin directa se emplea el mismo sistema, excepto que
el dimetro del pistn de mando va antes que el dimetro del elemento en el extremo del lquido. Por ejemplo,

son vlvulas de retencin que se abren por la presin diferencial del lquido y la mayor parte de ellas estn bajo
carga de resorte.
El extremo del lquido es la parte de la bomba en que
se efecta el bombeo. Los componentes comunes en todos ellos son el cilindro para lquido, el elemento de bombeo y las vlvulas.
El cilindro para lquido es la pieza que retiene la presin en el extremo para lquido y es la parte ms importante de la cmara de bombeo. Suele incluir o soportar
a todos los dems componentes del extremo del lquido.
Un pistn (Fig. 5a) es un disco plano, cilndrico, montado en una biela y suele tener algn tipo de anillos selladores. Un mbolo (Fig. 5b) es una varilla lisa y en su
configuracin normal slo puede ser de accin sencilla.
Cuando se emplea pistn, los elementos selladores se
mueven; cuando se emplea mbolo, son estacionarios. Un
pistn debe sellar contra un cilindro o camisa dentro de
la bomba. El mbolo slo debe sellar en el prensaestopas
y slo toca la empaquetadura y, quiz, los bujes (casquillos) del prensaestopas.
La bomba de pistn suele tener una camisa reemplazable que absorbe el desgaste de los anillos del pistn.
En las bombas de mbolo no se requiere esa camisa, porque el mbolo slo toca el prensaestopas.
El sellamiento entre la cmara de bombeo y la atmsfera se logra con un prensaestopas (Fig. 5c), que incluye
anillos de empaquetadura que se adaptan y sellan contra
el DI del prensaestopas y la biela.

Si hay que inyectar un lubricante, lquido sellador o


lquido para lavado en el centro de la empaquetadura,
se necesitan un anillo de cierre hidrulico o una jaula de
sello. El anillo produce un espacio anular entre los anillos de empaquetadura para que el lquido inyectado
circule con libertad hasta la superficie de la biela.
Las vlvulas de la bomba reciprocante se abren por la
presin diferencial del lquido y son del tipo de retencin,
de una gran variedad de formas, como de bola, hemisfrica, de disco y de asientos cnicos (Fig. 6).

Empaquetaduras para bombas


El principal problema de mantenimiento en casi todas
las bombas reciprocantes est en la empaquetadura. Aunque la duracin de una empaquetadura normal (estndar) en una bomba de potencia es de unas 2 500 h, en
algunas instalaciones con prensaestopas especiales se han
logrado ms de 18 000 h, con presin de descarga hasta
de 4 000 psig.
Una corta duracin de la empaquetadura puede ser
causa de: 1) empaquetadura incorrecta para la aplicacin,
2) lubricacin insuficiente, 3) desalineacin del mbolo
o la biela con el prensaestopas, 4) mbolo, biela, cavidad o bujes del prensaestopas gastados, 5) empaquetadura muy apretada o muy floja, 6) alta velocidad o alta
presin, 7) temperatura alta o baja del lquido, 8) friccin excesiva, por demasiadas empaquetaduras, 9) la empaquetadura funciona en seco porque la cmara de
bombeo est llena de gas, 10) condiciones de choque por
gas arrastrado o cavitacin, resorte de vlvula roto o deficiente o problemas con el sistema, ll) slidos en el lquido bombeado, cuerpos extraos o lubricante, 12)
instalacin o asentamiento inicial incorrecto de la empaquetadura, 13) formacin de hielo por lquidos voltiles
que refrigeran y forman cristales de hielo al escapar a la
atmsfera o por bombear lquidos a temperaturas menores de 32%.
Las condiciones anteriores de corta duracin de la
empaquetadura pueden indicar problemas en otro lugar
en la bomba o en el sistema.
Para obtener un bajo volumen de fugas o escurrimiento, la holgura entre el mbolo o la biela y la empaquetadura debe ser nula. Esto requiere que los anillos selladores
sean blandos y flexibles. Como la empaquetadura es flexible, se puede escurrir en los espacios libres del prensaestopas, en especial entre el mbolo y el buje del
impulsor. Si el buje no produce una barrera eficaz, se
extruir la empaquetadura y aumentarn las fugas.
Un juego de anillos de empaquetadura cuadrados o
en V sufrir una gradiente de presin durante el funcionamiento (Fig. 7). El ltimo anillo de la empaquetadura
contiguo al buje del prensaestopas es el que tendr la mxima carga axial, lo cual producir mayor deformacin,
sellamiento ms hermtico y, por ello, la mxima cada
de presin. Por tanto, la abertura entre el mbolo y el
buje debe ser lo bastante pequea para evitar la extrusin de la empaquetadura. La mayor parte de las fallas
de empaquetaduras se originan en este punto crtico del
sellamiento.
Debido a que el ltimo anillo de la empaquetadura es
el ms crtico efecta la mayor parte del sellamiento y
genera mucha friccin, requiere ms lubricacin que los
otros. En las empaquetaduras no lubricadas (Fig. 7) este
anillo necesita la superficie del mbolo para arrastrar parte del lquido bombeado de retorno para tener enfriamiento y lubricacin. Para maximizar la duracin de la
empaquetadura, la altura total de la pila de anillos no
debe ser mayor que la longitud de la carrera de la bomba. La corta duracin de la empaquetadura se ha debido
al funcionamiento sin lubricacin de prensaestopas equipados con anillos de cierre hidrulico, en especial en bom-

bas con carrera corta de unas 2 in. El anillo de cierre en


el centro de la empaquetadura, a veces, hace que la altura de ella sea mayor que la longitud de la carrera.
Como el ltimo anillo de la empaquetadura necesita
ms lubricacin que los otros, si se lubrica desde el lado
atmosfrico es ms eficaz que la inyeccin de aceite a un
anillo de cierre colocado en el centro de la empaquetadura. Se debe tener cuidado de que el lubricante llegue
a la superficie del mbolo y lo bastante cerca del ltimo
anillo, de modo que la carrera del mbolo arrastre al lubricante debajo del anillo. Si el lubricante gotea hacia el
mbolo en el frente de la empaquetadura, quiz la carrera del mbolo no sea suficiente para llevar el lubricante
debajo del ltimo anillo.
Debido a que el ltimo anillo de la empaquetadura es
el que ms se deforma, es el que mejor se adapta a las
irregularidades en la cavidad del prensaestopas. Por tanto, cuando se aprieta la empaquetadura, la mayor parte
de la fuerza se absorbe en el ltimo anillo con lo cual sella con ms fuerza contra el prensaestopas y el vstago.
Muy poca fuerza de la empaquetadura se transmite a los
anillos internos.
Por tanto, el anillo inferior de la empaquetadura se
debe asentar con firmeza durante la instalacin, con una
varilla de punta plana o una pila de bujes de prensaestopas. Una vez armado el prensaestopas e instalado el
mbolo, pero antes de llenar el extremo para lquido, es
aconsejable apretar ligeramente la empaquetadura con
la llave especial. Si se deja que las empaquetaduras
asienten con la carga aplicada, la mayor parte de ellas
fluirn y se adaptarn al prensaestopas y al mbolo. Se
encontrar que despus de unos 10 minutos se puede
volver a apretar la empaquetadura. Esto se debe repetir
dos o tres veces o hasta que ya no se pueda apretar ms
el anillo. Despus, hay que aflojar por completo la empaquetadura y dejar que se ensanche durante 10 15

minutos y volver a apretarla con los dedos, sin utilizar


una llave. Ya se pueden abrir las vlvulas de corte y
de.jar entrar el lquido a la bomba.
Si se remoja la empaquetadura en aceite antes de instalarla, se tendr mejor asentamiento inicial y mayor
duracin.
Durante las primeras horas de funcionamiento de la
bomba despus de cambiar la empaquetadura, hay que
vigilar la temperatura del prensaestopas. Es normal que
algunos funcionen ms calientes que otros, hasta 50F
ms que la temperatura de bombeo. Slo si se excede la
temperatura mxima especificada para la empaquetadura, habr que tomar medidas para reducir la temperatura de la caja.
El mejor lubricante en la mayor parte de las instalaciones que tienen lubricadores para el prensaestopas es
el aceite para cilindros de vapor, que est compuesto
con sebo lo cual le da adherencia en la superficie del mbolo y es ideal para proveer una cua de lubricante entre el mbolo y la empaquetadura.
El concepto de que las altas presiones de descarga
requieren ms anillos de empaquetadura y que cuando
mayor sea el nmero de ellos ms durarn, quiz haya
sido vlido en mquinas de carrera larga y baja velocidad, pero no es aplicable en algunas bombas de potencia. Salvo que tengan abundante lubricacin, un mayor
nmero de anillos produce calor adicional por friccin
y arrastra el lubricante de la superficie del mbolo, con

lo cual algunos anillos no tienen lubricante. En muchas


bombas para inyeccin de agua salada que trabajaban
a presiones mayores de 4 000 psig, Chesney
inform
que la duracin de la empaquetadura era de slo dos semanas cuando se intalaban 12 anillos en cada prensaestopas. Con tres anillos en cada prensaestopas, la duracin aproximada fue de seis meses.

Prensaestopas
En la figura 8 se ilustran los diseos de prensaestopas,
incluso los tipos estndar sin lubricacin y algunos sistemas de lubricacin y purga para minimizar las fugas y
prolongar la duracin de la empaquetadura.
Un importante adelanto han sido las empaquetaduras
bajo carga de resorte. Aunque este sistema se ha conocido desde hace ms de veinte aos y un fabricante ya lo
utilizaba desde entonces, ahora ha logrado mayor Inters.
La carga de resorte se aplica casi exclusivamente en
los sellos y empaquetaduras en V (cheurones) pero
tambin funciona con anillos cuadrados. El resorte
siempre debe estar en el lado de presin de la empaquetadura y se pueden utilizar diversos tipos, como una sola
espiral grande, espirales mltiples, arandelas onduladas, muelles Belleville y una arandela gruesa de caucho.
La carga necesaria en el resorte es pequea en comparacin con la fuerza que aplica el lquido en la empaquetadura. La funcin principal del resorte es aplicar una
pequea precarga para ayudar a asentar la empaquetadura y mantener a todos los bujes y anillos en su lugar
durante el funcionamiento.
Las empaquetaduras con carga de resorte tienen muchas ventajas, por ejemplo:
w No requieren ajuste del casquillo; slo hay que
apretarlo hasta que llegue a fondo y fijarlo. Esto elimina
una de las mayores variables en la duracin de la empaquetadura, o sea la pericia del operario.
n Permiten la dilatacin. Si se dilata la empaquetadura por el calor fricciona1 durante el asentamiento inicial, el resorte permite la dilatacin.
n Compensan el desgaste. Cuando se desgasta la empaquetadura, ocurre ajuste automtico dentro del prensaestopas. Se elimina el problema de transmitir la fuerza
a travs del anillo superior de la empaquetadura durante el ajuste.
n Producen una cavidad. La cavidad en el resorte es
un espacio anular para la inyeccin de lquido limpio
cuando se trabaja con pastas aguadas.
w Si el diseo de la bomba lo permite, se puede eliminar el casquillo. El prensaestopas, si es un componente separado, se puede desarmar y armar en el banco de
trabajo (Fig. 8j).
Las ventajas de la empaquetadura bajo carga de resorte se relacionan con la cavidad producida por el resorte
o muelle. Dado que esta cavidad tiene comunicacin directa con la cmara de bombeo, el volumen de despejo
adicional puede reducir la eficiencia volumtrica si el material bombeado tiene suficiente compresibilidad. En esta
cavidad tambin se acumulan los vapores. Si el diseo de

BOMBAS
la bomba no incluye respiracin en esa zona puede ocurrir reduccin en la eficiencia volumtrica.
La empaquetadura bajo carga de resorte es el equivalente, en las bombas reciprocantes, de los sellos mecnicos para ejes o rboles rotarios. Tienen pocas fugas,
larga duracin y se eliminan los ajustes. Los juegos de
empaquetadura se pueden colocar en tndem con soporte independiente para tener reduccin escalonada de
la presin o para atrapar las fugas de la empaquetadura
primaria que no pueden escapar a la atmsfera.

Material del mbolo


El mbolo, despus de la empaquetadura, es el componente que necesita reemplazo ms frecuente. La alta
velocidad del mbolo y la carga de friccin de la empaquetadura desgastan la superficie. A veces, se endurecen los mbolos para darles ms duracin; un mtodo
muy comn es aplicarles un revestimiento duro de cromo, diversas cermicas, y aleaciones a base de nquel o
de cobalto. Las caractersticas deseadas en el revestimiento son dureza, tersura, gran resistencia del ligado,
resistencia a la corrosin y bajo costo, pero ningn revestimiento las incluye todas.
Los revestimientos cermicos son ms duros que los
metales, pero son quebradizos, porosos y a veces tienen
baja resistencia de ligado y su porosidad reduce la duracin de la empaquetadura. La adicin de partculas duras como carburo de tungsteno en las aleaciones de
nquel o cobalto que son menos duras, aumenta la duracin del mbolo a expensas de menor duracin de la empaquetadura.

Componentes del extremo de potencia


El extremo de potencia de la bomba es donde est instalado el propulsor (Fig. 3). Su funcin es convertir el
movimiento rotatorio de la mquina motriz en movimiento alternativo en el extremo para lquido. El componente principal del extremo de potencia es el bastidor
que soporta todas las dems piezas motrices y, por lo general, el extremo de lquido. El segundo componente
principal en el extremo de potencia es el cigeal o a veces un rbol de levas. La funcin del cigeal en la bomba de potencia es la misma que en un motor de
combustin, excepto que la aplicacin de energa es en
sentido opuesto.
Los cojinetes principales soportan el eje o rbol en el
bastidor de potencia. La biela se impulsa con un codo
o mun del cigeal en un extremo e impulsa una cruceta en el otro. La cruceta slo tiene movimiento alternativo y el cigeal slo movimiento rotatorio y los
conecta la biela.
Aunque la cruceta es similar en construccin y movimiento a un pistn en un motor de combustin interna
est montada en una biela corta o bieleta y el segundo
extremo de ella est conectado en la biela del mbolo o
del pistn.
La funcin del extremo de potencia en la bomba de
accin directa es convertir la presin diferencial del
fluido-motor en movimiento alternativo en el extremo

del lquido. El extremo de potencia es de construccin


similar al del lquido e incluye un pistn de doble accin
y vlvulas. La diferencia principal es que el accionamiento de las vlvulas es mecnico mediante un sistema
de control que detecta la ubicacin del pistn para hacer
que la vlvula invierta el flujo del fluido-motor cuando
el pistn llega al final de su carrera.
El componente principal en el extremo de potencia es
el cilindro de impulsin o potencia, que forma la mayor
parte del lmite para la presin y soporta a las otras piezas. Al contrario que en el extremo de potencia, este cilindro no soporta el extremo del lquido.

Caractersticas del flujo


Cuando el elemento de bombeo se retrae de la cmara
de bombeo, el lquido que hay dentro de ella se expande
y se reduce la presin. Como la mayor parte de los lquidos no son comprensibles, se requiere muy poco movimiento del elemento para disminuir la presin. Cuando
la presin disminuye lo suficiente a menos de la presin
de succin, entonces la presin diferencial (o sea la presin de succin menos la presin en la cmara) empuja
la vlvula de succin y la abre. Esto ocurre cuando el
elemento se mueve con lentitud, por lo cual la vlvula
abre en forma gradual y suave segn aumenta la veioc,dad del elemento. Despus, el lquido circula por la vlvula y sigue al elemento en su carrera de succin.
Cuando el elemento desacelera cerca del final de su carrera, la vlvula de succin vuelve a su asiento en forma
gradual y cuando se detiene el elemento, se cierra la vlvula.
Despus, el elemento invierte su movimiento y empieza su carrera de descarga. Se comprime el lquido
atrapado en la cmara de bombeo hasta que la presin
en la cmara excede la presin de descarga en una cantidad suficiente para empezar a separar la vlvula de descarga en su asiento; la accin de esta vlvula es la misma
que la de succin.
La velocidad de flujo de una bomba smplex de doble
accin, de accin directa, se ilustra en la figura 9a. La
velocidad del lquido que entra y sale de la bomba cae
a cero, dos veces por ciclo de bombeo. La bomba acelera
con rapidez hasta su velocidad mxima, la mantiene y
desacelera cerca del final de la carrera.
La velocidad de flujo en la bomba dplex de doble accin, de accin directa, es casi constante (Fig. 9b). Un
lado se pone en marcha antes de que se detenga el otro
y el traslapo que se produce, con las vlvulas bien ajustadas, produce un flujo suave en los tubos de succin y
descarga.
En la bomba smplex de accin directa, se ajusta la
vlvula deslizable en el extremo de potencia para cambiar la longitud de la carrera. Si la vlvula se desplaza
antes de tiempo se reduce la longitud de la carrera; a
menudo, la inversin de la carrera es tan rpida que
ocurre un choque hidrulico.
Esto no ocurre en una bomba dplex. Cada pistn de
impulsin controla la vlvula del otro pistn. Esto reduce el movimiento muerto en el mecanismo de vlvulas

162

y hace que el segundo lado empiece a funcionar ms


pronto, pero no altera la longitud de carrera en ninguno
de los lados. La longitud de carrera en la bomba dplex
se determina por la cantidad de amortiguacin en cada
extremo de cada cilindro. En las bombas grandes, a veces se instalan vlvulas amortiguadoras para regular la
longitud de la carrera y sta no es ajustable.
En una bomba de potencia, la velocidad del elemento
(pistn, mbolo o diafragma) vara ms o menos de
acuerdo con el seno del ngulo del mun o codo del cigeal. Sera una funcin senoidal perfecta si la longitud de la biela fuera infinita. Dado que la velocidad del
lquido en la tubera es proporcional a la velocidad
del mbolo se puede trazar como porcentaje del promedio (Fig. 10).
En la bomba dplex de accin sencilla, los codos del
cigeal estn desplazados 180, por lo cual no hay traslapo de las carreras de succin o descarga. Esto produce
el perfil ilustrado y la velocidad vara entre cero y 160 %
de la velocidad promedio, dos veces por revolucin.
Cuando se agrega un solo elemento de bombeo ocurre
una reduccin importante en la velocidad. La bomba de
potencia trplex tiene los codos de cigeal desplazados
120 y el taslapo de 60 hace que dos elementos descarguen o succionen lquido en forma simultnea la mitad
del tiempo. Por ello, el perfil resultante de velocidad es
la suma de las tres ondas senoidales traslapadas, pero
deformadas. La variacin en eficiencia es slo 25% de
la promedio, la velocidad mxima es 82% de la velocidad promedio y la mxima es de 107 % . Para una capacidad promedio de 100 gpm los tubos de succin y
descarga tendran capacidades mnimas de 82 gpm y
mximas de 107 gpm.

Al comparar estas cifras, se podra creer que la bomba trplex producira variaciones en la presin de alrededor de ll6 parte de la dplex y la quntuplex
alrededor de 1/3 parte de las de la trplex. En realidad,
si el flujo fuera totalmente turbulento y la friccin el nico factor que influyera en la presin, entonces las relaciones de variacin de presin seran el cuadrado de
estas fracciones en funcionamiento a baja velocidad. Esto no ocurre con velocidades moderadas porque interviene la carga de aceleracin.

po de dos elementos de bombeo. Las bombas cudruplex rara vez se fabrican porque el perfil resultante de
velocidad, con sus codos desplazados 90, tiene mayor
variacin que en la trplex.
La bomba quntuplex tiene los codos del cigeal desplazados 72O con lo cual hay dos o tres elementos traslapados en todo momento. La velocidad slo vara un 7 %
(5 % por abajo y 2 % por arriba de la velocidad promedio). Igual que en las trplex, el nmero de impulsos por
revolucin es el doble del nmero de elementos de bombeo. Las bombas de potencia se construyen tambin con
siete y nueve elementos de bombeo y sus variaciones de
velocidad son de 4 % y 2 % .
En resumen, las variaciones en la velocidad de las
bombas de potencia son:

360

Debido a que la circulacin en los tubos de succin y


descarga no es constante, tiene que acelerar y desacelerar cierto nmero de veces por cada revolucin del cigeal. Dado que el lquido tiene masa y, por tanto,
inercia se requiere para producir la aceleracin y retorna al sistema al ocurrir la desaceleracin. Sin embargo,
se debe preveer suficiente exceso de presin para acelerar el lquido en el lado de succin de la bomba y evitar
la cavitacin en el tubo de succin, en la cmara de
bombeo o en ambos.
La aceleracin se puede entender con ms claridad si
se cambian las escalas en la curvas de flujo (Fig. 10). Si
se modifica la abscisa de grados de rotacin del cigeal a tiempo (para lo cual se divide entre 360 y revoluciones por minuto) y se cambia la ordenada a
velocidad en el tubo, en vez de velocidad relativa al
multiplicarla por la velocidad promedio, se tiene un trazo de velocidad contra el tiempo en los tubos de succin
o de descarga.
Para determinar la aceleracin se mide la pendiente
de las curvas de velocidad. Por ejemplo, la aceleracin
mxima en la bomba dplex ocurre dos veces por revolucin o sea a Oo y 180 de la rotacin del cigeal. La

BOMBAS
bomba trplex produce mxima aceleracin a los 60,
180 y 300 de rotacin.
Se podra calcular la masa del lquido en el tubo de
succin, su aceleracin y la fuerza requerida y convertirlas a presin 0 energa por masa unitaria. Por fortuna,
ya se ha hecho en las normas del Hydraulic Institute*,
en las cuales se obtiene:

h, = LVNC/kg
en donde h, = carga de aceleracin, ft de lquido que
se bombea; L = longitud real (no equivalente) del tubo
de succin, ft; V = velocidad del lquido en el tubo de
succin, ft/s; N = velocidad de rotacin del cigeal,
rpm; C = constante que depende del tipo de bomba;
k = constante que depende de la comprensibilidad del
lquido y g = constante de la gravedad, 32.2 ft/s2. Los

109 gpm de aceite pobre con una densidad relativa de

Se calcula que la velocidad en el tubo de succin es

La ecuacin (1) no es lo bastante amplia para compensar factores como la elasticidad del sistema y la velocidad de una onda de presin en el lquido. Por ello, slo
se recomienda para tubos de succin cortos y no elsticos. Si se utiliza la ecuacin para tubos de succin de
ms de 50 ft, es probable que se tengan resultados inexactos.

una sola bomba grande. Se suman las capacidades de
todas las bombas para determinar la velocidad en la tubera.
Miller3 inform que sus pruebas mostraron que la
carga de aceleracin era mucho menor que la calculada
con la ecuacin (1). Algunas instalaciones han tenido
funcionamiento satisfactorio con una carga neta positiva
de succin, NPSH, mucho menor que la indicada .como
necesaria en la ecuacin (1). Por otra parte, tambin
hay algunas instalaciones en las cuales la NPSH requerida concuerda con la ecuacin (1).
No se conoce la razn de esta discrepancia, pero
quiz se deba a que se libera gas o aire en el tubo de succin. Cualquier gas arrastrado en el lquido o acumulado en un punto alto en la tubera de succin tiende a
absorber las pulsaciones de la bomba y reduce la carga
de aceleracin.
Algunos usuarios de bombas han informado que los
estabilizadores de succin, que tambin se destinan a separar y acumular el gas, han requerido respiracin
peridica. Si el estabilizador no hubiera estado en la tubera de succin, el gas habra entrado a la bomba y ocasionado funcionamiento de choque o en un caso
extremo, hacer que una o ms cmaras de bombeo estuvieran cerradas por el gas. Sin el estabilizador, la agitacin en la tubera de succin habra sido ms grande y
se habra liberado ms gas. Los choques de presin ocasionados por la entrada de gas pueden producir la falla
de la bomba y componentes del sistema.
Cualquier caracterstica del sistema de succin que
tienda a absorber los impulsos de la bomba reducir la
carga de aceleracin. En tal caso, el estabilizador de succin es ideal en los sistemas que tienen excesivas cargas
de aceleracin o gases arrastrados en el lquido. Si el estabilizador se instala y mantiene de acuerdo con las normas del Hydraulic Institute2, reducir la longitud
efectiva de la tubera de succin de la ecuacin (1) a
alrededor de 10 dimetros del tubo, es decir, que con un
tubo de succin de 6 in, L sera de unas 60 in o sea 5
ft. Esto dara, para el ejemplo, una carga calculada de
aceleracin de 0.7 psi.

Carga neta positiva de succin


La carga neta positiva de succin, NPSH, se define
como la diferencia entre la presin de succin y la presin de vapor, medida en la boquilla de succin con la
bomba en marcha. En una bomba reciprocante, se necesita la NPSH para separar la vlvula de succin de su
asiento y para contrarrestar las prdidas por friccin y
la carga de aceleracin en el extremo de lquido.
Debido a que una parte importante de la NPSH requerida (NPSH)R se emplea para abrir la vlvula, en
particular a baja velocidad de la bomba y debido a que
es un requisito de presin ms bien que de carga, la
(NPSH)), en una bomba reciprocante se suele expresar
en unidades de presin. Por ejemplo, si una bomba de
potencia requiere 2 psi de NPSH (4.6 ft) cuando bombea
agua, tambin requerir 2 psi de NPSH para bombear
9.2 ft de propano.

La figura ll facilita entender la (NPSH), y la accin


de las vlvulas de una bomba reciprocante. Las curvas
son para una bomba de potencia trplex, horizontal, con
carrera de 3 in y vlvula de succin de funcionamiento
vertical; las vlvulas tienen aletas de gua y son grandes
en relacin al dimetro del mbolo: entonces, la superlicie para flujo en el asiento de la vlvula es ms o menos
igual que la superficie del mbolo.
Como el eje de las vlvulas de succin est vertical,
puede funcionar sin resorte si la bomba est a baja velocidad. Las curvas A y B indican los requisitos de NPSH
para dos mbolos de dimetro diferente probados en el
mismo extremo de lquido y sin resortes en las vlvulas
de succin. La NPSH con mbolo de 1 718 in de dimetro y a 100 rpm es slo 0.7 psi (1.6 ft de agua), o sea menos que en la mayora de las centrfugas. La (NPSH),
para el mbolo de 2 1/2 in a 180 rpm es de 1.2 psi.
La velocidad de la bomba en esta configuracin est
limitada por la capacidad de la vlvula de succin de
funcionar al mismo ritmo que el mbolo. Como no hay
resorte que empuje la vlvula contra su asiento, slo acta la gravedad para cerrar la vlvula en contra del lquido de entrada. Si la bomba trabaja a mucha
velocidad, la vlvula todava no habr asentado cuando
el mbolo invierta su carrera y empiece a entrar de nuevo en la cmara de bombeo. Entonces, el lquido tendr
un flujo inverso momentneo, por el asiento y la vlvula
cerrar de golpe y enviar una onda de choque hacia el
mltiple y tuberas de succin. En ese momento, el mbolo se mueve a una velocidad finita pero la vlvula de
descarga sigue cerrada. La presin en la cmara de
bombeo exceder muy pronto de la de descarga y la vlvula de descarga se levantar de su asiento. Se transmitir una onda de choque desde la cmara de bombeo,
por el mltiple de descarga hacia la tubera de descarga.
La inercia de la vlvula de descarga la mover ms
all de su punto neutral y habr exceso de comprensin
del resorte. Cuando se detiene la vlvula de descarga el
resorte trata de volverla a su posicin neutral pero la
inercia la mueve otra vez ms all y hace que la presin
en la cmara tenga un ligero aumento. Esa oscilacin de

Todo lo anterior ocurre en una fraccin de segundo, pero se puede medir con un transductor de presin en la
cmara de bombeo y exhibirlo en un osciloscopio de rayos catdicos.
Las lneas verticales en los extremos de las curvas A
y B (Fig. 11) indican velocidades seguras dentro del intervalo de funcionamiento de la vlvula de succin.
Las curvas C y D son para los mismos dos mbolos,
pero se han agregado resortes ligeros en las vlvulas de
succin. Debido a que ahora se necesita vencer la fuerza
del resorte y el peso de la vlvula de succin para abrirla, la (NPSH), ha aumentado alrededor de 100% en
relacin con las curvas A y B. Estos resortes cierran las
vlvulas con ms rapidez y el funcionamiento es suave
a altas velocidades.
Si se desean velocidades ms all de los extremos de
las curvas C y D se necesitan resortes ms fuertes que
permitan el funcionamiento entre 300 y 400 rpm. La
(NPSH), es unas tres veces mayor que la de las curvas
A y B y flucta entre 2 y 4.5 psi.
Las curvas A hasta F representan una bomba equipada con el mismo resorte estndar en la vlvula de descarga; slo se ha cambiado el resorte de la vlvula de
succin.
Si se requiere trabajar a velocidades ms all de los
lmites de las curvas E y F se requieren resortes muy
fuertes en las vlvulas de succin y descarga. La
(NPSH), es alrededor del doble de la requerida. con los
resortes estndar y flucta entre 4.5 y 9 psi.
Estos valores de (NPSH), no son presiones manomtricas, sino presiones ms altas que la presin de vapor.
Por ejemplo, si se bombea agua desaereada a 70F (presin de vapor de 0.4 psia) la bomba del ejemplo, con
mbolos de 2 1/2 in de dimetro, sin resortes en las vlvulas de succin y que trabaje a 150 rpm, requerir una
presin de succin de 1.5 psia (es decir, 1.1 psi de
(NPSH), + 0.4 psia de presin de vapor) o sean unas
27 in Hg a nivel del mar.
Dado que el agua casi siempre contiene aire disuelto,
su presin de vapor es ms alta que la del agua desaereada, cosa que a menudo no se tiene en cuenta al calcular
la NPSH. El Hydraulic Institute2 recomienda un margen de NPSH de 3 psi para bombas de potencia en sistemas en donde el lquido ha estado expuesto a un gas que
no sea su propio valor. Un lquido como el propano en
su punto de burbujas en el recipiente de succin no necesita ese margen.
Para minimizar el problema del aire disuelto, se efectuaron pruebas de NPSH con agua a su punto de ebullicin o cerca del mismo en el recipiente de succin que
dieron por resultado las curvas de la figura 11.
Como se describi, las bombas reciprocantes en las
condiciones correctas pueden funcionar con una presin
de succin inferior a la atmosfrica. Pero esta situacin
puede ocasionar succin de aire por la empaquetadura
y hacia la cmara de bombeo en la carrera de succin;
este aire ocasionar tantos problemas como el arrastrado por el lquido. Se reducir la capacidad, la bomba
puede estar ruidosa, habr vibracin del sistema y se
pueden daar la bomba y componentes del sistema.

165

BOMBAS RECIPROCANTES
Esta entrada de aire se puede reducir con un lquido
sellador externo, como aceite lubricante que se enve
contra la superficie del mbolo o dentro de la empaquetadura. Un mtodo muy eficaz es el de instalar un anillo
de empaquetadura con pestaa de sello continua en cada lado de un anillo de cierre hidrulico, con ambas pestaas hacia el anillo e inyectar aceite con un lubricador
mecnico en el anillo de cierre. Se debe tener cuidado
de no aplicar presin excesiva contra el anillo porque
puede daar la empaquetadura, el lubricador o el prensaestopas.

Criterios para pruebas de la NPSH


Para efectuar las pruebas de la NRSH en las bombas
de potencia se mantienen constantes la velocidad y la
presin y descarga y se vara la NPSH disponible
(NPSH), en el sistema. La capacidad permanece constante con todos los valores de (NPSH), superiores a
cierto punto; cuando se reduce la (NPSH), a menos de
ese valor se empieza a reducir la capacidad. En la figura
12 aparecen muestras de datos de la prueba de NPSH.
En una accin similar a la de la cada de curgu de 3 70
utilizada en las pruebas de NPSH en bombas centrfugas,
los fabricantes de bombas reciprocantes han establecido
una cada de ca@Ad de 3% como criterio para definir la
(NPSH),. En las bombas de desplazamiento positivo
no se pueden utilizar la carga o la presin, pues es el sistema y no la bomba lo que determina la presin de descarga. Por tanto, se reduce la (NPSH), hasta que la
cada de capacidad es mayor de 3 % ; luego, se establece
la NPSH que estaba disponible con la reduccin del 3 7%
mediante la definicin, como (NPSH), para esa velocidad.
La (NPSH), por la bomba trplex fue de 0.85 psi y
es el valor para el cual se vender esa bomba. Si se la
hace funcionar con 0.85 psi de (NPSH)A se producir
cavitacin igual que en una bomba centrfuga. Estos datos plantean dos preguntas:
1 . iProducir daos a la bomba o el sistema el funcionamiento de la bomba con cavitacin?
2. iCunta (NPSH)* adicional se requiere para eliminar toda la cavitacin?
Ningna de estas preguntas es fcil de contestar. La
respuesta ala primera se basara en el lquido bombeado
y las presiones de descarga.
Si se hiciera funcionar esta bomba con un hidrocarburo ligero y con baja presin diferencial (200 a 300 psi)
sera difcil detectar el efecto de la cavitacin. Con 0.85
psi de (NPSH),4, la relacin entre el volumen de vapor
y el volumen de lquido sera menor que con agua y la
relacin o razn de comprensin (presin de descarga y
presin de succin) sera menor que la relacin de 100
o ms que hubo durante la prueba con agua caliente.
Como ambas relaciones son bajas, es pequea la distancia que recorrera el mbolo en su carrera de descarga antes de comprimir el lquido a su presin de
descarga y el resultado sera mayor capacidad. Adems,
el aplastamiento de las burbujas de vapor durante la carrera de descarga es mucho ms suave con el hidrocarburo ligero lo que producir menos daos en las

los cojinetes del extremo de potencia; ste tendra carga
ligera y los componentes podran soportar mucho mejor
las cargas de choque. El resultado sera una bomba de
funcionamiento silencioso y suave con larga duracin de
los cojinetes.
Por el contrario, si esta bomba manejase una amina
a una presin de descarga de 1 000 psig, el efecto de la
cavitacin sera ms pronunciado. Con 0.85 psi de
(NPSH)A la capacidad sera menor y la contraccin ms
severa de las burbujas aumentara los daos a las superficies metlicas y producira choques intensos. Como los
cojinetes y otros componentes en el extremo de potencia
tendran mayor carga inicial por la alta presin de descarga, no podran soportar los choques sin daarse.
La respuesta a la segunda pregunta tampoco es concluyente. Al examinar la figura 12 se encuentra que se
logra la plena capacidad con 1.5 psi de (NPSH),, y esto
podra hacer pensar que con ese valor se eliminara toda
la cavitacin. Esto es errneo.
Como menciona Collier4, la cavitacin puede ocurrir
en una bomba reciprocante sin reducirle su capacidad.
La cavitacin incipiente ocurre durante la parte inicial
de la carrera de succin porque el mbolo o el pistn estn acelerando y desaparece en la parte final porque hay
desaceleracin. Por tanto, la cmara de bombeo se llena
por completo con lquido al final de la carrera de succin
y no se altera la capacidad de la bomba.
La capacidad slo se reduce cuando la cavitacin es
tan severa que el aplastamiento completo de las burbujas no ocurre hasta que el mbolo est en su carrera de
descarga. Aunque las burbujas se aplasten por completo
en la carrera de succin, pueden ocurrir daos. Durante
la contraccin, el lquido choca contra la cara del mbolo y produce daos semejantes a los que ocurren en el
ojo del impulsor de una bomba centrfuga en circunstancias similares. El choque resultante se transmite por
la vlvula de succin que est abierta y hacia el tubo de
succin y a veces produce vibraciones y ruido.
Que se sepa, no se ha intentado cuantificar el margen
adicional de (NPSH), que se necesitara para impedir
toda la cavitacin.

Caractersticas del par (torsin)


Con presiones de succin y descarga fijas, una bomba
de potencia requiere un par (torsin) de entrada que es.
independiente de la velocidad, excepto los incrementos
a velocidades muy altas y muy bajas. Una bomba de potencia requerir el mismo par al 25 % o al 50% de la velocidad nominal y, por tanto, requerir el 50 % o el 25 $.T
de la potencia nominal. En la figura 13 se ilustra la variacin en el par promedio segn la velocidad en una
bomba de potencia trplex tpica.
La curva del par a plena carga (Fig. 13) es al arranque con plena presin de descarga. El par al arranque
es alrededor del 150% del par promedio de funcionamiento con plena carga. Conforme aumenta la velocidad y se establece la lubricacin necesaria en el extremo
de potencia y en la empaquetadura, el par cae al valor
de plena carga y plena velocidad y, luego, es constante
hasta llegar a velocidad total.
Para tener arranque con menos esfuerzo del equipo,
la descarga de la bomba retorna por tubos hasta el recipiente de succin, con lo que la presin de descarga es
casi igual a la de succin. La curva sin carga (Fig. 13)
indica los requisitos del par que impone la bomba en el
sistema propulsor. El par o torsin al arranque es alrededor del 25 % del par a plena carga y variar segn sea
el tipo de empaquetadura y cojinetes y el tiempo que haya estado parada la bomba. Cuando se aumenta la velocidad, el par caer alrededor del 10% del de plena carga. El aumento en el par indicado por la curva sin carga
a velocidades altas se debe al aumento en la carga de
friccin en el sistema de derivacin conforme aumenta
el volumen de flujo.

Carga del mbolo


La carga del mbolo se define como la fuerza transmitida al extremo de potencia por un mbolo. En bombas
de accin sencilla, para calcular la carga en el mbolo
de descarga se multiplica la presin de descarga por la
superficie de la cara de un mbolo. La carga del mbolo
de succin es la presin multiplicada por la superficie
del mbolo.
Una bomba de potencia se especifica por la carga mxima del mbolo o biela que puede absorber el extremo
de potencia cuando la presin de succin es de cero. Algunas bombas se especifican para funcionamiento continuo, otras para intermitente y, algunas, para ambos.

presin de succin, psi; p; = potencia de entrada del


propulsor, hp.
Por lo general, la potencia de entrada incluye las prdidas en una propulsin con bandas (correas) o integral
con engranes, pero no las prdidas en una unidad con
engranes separadas o de velocidad variable.
La eficiencia mecnica de una bomba de potencia a
menudo excede del 90% (Fig. 14) y a veces es mayor
que la eficiencia de su motor. Como se indica en la fgura 14, qrn vara con la carga y la velocidad. En algunas
bombas ocurre un cambio en nrn cuando cambia el dimetro del mbolo; los mbolos grandes en las bombas de
baja velocidad tienen menor eficiencia por el aumento
en las prdidas de las vlvulas y empaquetadura.
Cuando se reduce la velocidad se reduce la eficiencia
de la bomba trazada en la figura 14. Esta reduccin, en
apariencia, se debe a un ligero aumento en la friccin en
los cojinetes y empaquetadura. En otras bombas se presenta una situacin opuesta, debida en apariencia a una
reduccin en las prdidas en las vlvulas.
La eficiencia mecnica disminuye cuando se.reduce la
carga del mbolo y se debe a que la potencia de salida

curvas hasta cero carga del mbolo, la eficiencia sera
cero porque tambin lo sera la salida de potencia, pero
se necesitara algo de potencia para contrarrestar las
prdidas por friccin.
Algunos especialistas en aplicaciones de bombas utilizan un valor fijo de 85 % para la eficiencia de la bomba,
sin que importen las presiones de funcionamiento. Como se puede ver en las curvas, resulta seguro para muchas aplicaciones porque, por lo general, la bomba de
potencia se utiliza para presiones de descarga de ms de
la mitad de su capacidad nominal. Hay algunos servicios en los que la presin diferencial es baja y el empleo
deqm = 85% har que se utilice un propulsor de menor tamao.

Eficiencia mecnica: bomba de


accin directa

Fig. 15

En la bomba de accin directa, la eficiencia mecnica


es la relacin entre la fuerza aplicada al lquido por el
pistn o el mbolo y la fuerza aplicada al pistn propulsor o de mando por el fluido motor. Dado que la mayor
parte de estas bombas son de doble accin, se utilizan
las presiones diferenciales en ambos extremos de ellas y
dado que las prdidas por friccin de fluido en las vlvulas y orificios se incluyen en las de la bomba, estas
presiones se miden en los orificios de entrada y de salida. Al expresarlas en forma de ecuacin se tiene:

Se ha evitado utilizar el trmino capacidad entregada porque connotara que el volumen se medira en la
descarga de la bomba. Dado que en la mayor parte de
los lquidos se comprimen un valor mensurable cuando
se mueven desde la succin hasta la descarga, el volumen de flujos, gpm, es menor en la descarga que en la
succin, aunque el flujo de masa sea el mismo.
Casi siempre, el ingeniero de proceso indicar los requisitos de capacidad y las caractersticas del lquido en
las condiciones de succin de la bomba, porque se desconocen las caractersticas en la descarga. Adems, si el
sistema incluye un medidor de flujo o aforador por lo general estar en el lado de succin para no tener que emplear uno para alta presin en el lado de descarga. Para
conveniencia y uniformidad, se utilizar el trmino capacidad para indicar el volumen de gasto en el tubo de
succin.
La segunda mitad de la ecuacin (4) es el desplazamiento de la bomba. Se debe evitar el trmino desplazamiento terico pues no tiene nada de ello, pues es
real y fcil de medir. El desplazamiento es el volumen
desplazado por el elemento de bombeo por unidad de
tiempo. En una bomba de mbolo trplex, de accin
sencilla, la ecuacin es:

ALAPL
9m = A,APD

(3)

en donde: q,,, = eficiencia mecnica de la bomba, A, =


superficie del pistn o mbolo para lquido, AP, = presin diferencial a travs del extremo del lquido, A, =
superficie del pistn propulsor y APo = presin diferencial a travs del extremo de potencia.
La superficie de la biela suele ser pequea en relacin
a la del pistn y a menudo no se la tiene en cuenta. Sin
embargo, se la debe tener en consideracin cuando la
superficie de la biela es parte importante de la superficie
del pistn.
La eficiencia mecnica de una bomba tpica de accin
directa se presenta en la figura 15 y se ver que 71, aumenta conforme se reduce la velocidad. Esta caracterstica esla que permite controlar la bomba con la estrangulacin del fluido motor con lo que se reduce la presin
diferencial disponible para propulsin y se hace que la
bomba funcione con mayor eficiencia, es decir, a velocidad ms baja.

Grficas para seleccin de bombas


En una bomba reciprocante la equivalente de la curva
de rendimiento de una bomba centrfuga es la grfica
para seleccin. Cada fabricante produce estas grficas
en forma diferente. Todas consisten, bsicamente, en
lneas rectas porque el desplazamiento va en proporcin
directa con la velocidad. La figura 16 es una grfica para una bomba trplex con carrera de 3 in. La velocidad
del cigeal se traza contra el desplazamiento con los diferentes dimetros de mbolos disponibles para esa
bomba. Las presiones mximas de descarga en la parte
superior de la grfica son aquellas a las cuales funcionara el mbolo para cargar el extremo de potencia a su valor nominal de 4 460 lb. Las presiones indicadas para
los mbolos de 1 1/4 y de 1 718 in son presiones de traba-

jo en el extremo de lquido y menores que las permitidas


por la especificacin para el extremo de potencia.

Quiz el factor que ms se ha discutido respecto a las


bombas de potencia es la velocidad mxima permisible.
Con el empleo de la bomba trplex con carrera de 3 in
como ejemplo, se encontrar que algunos fabricantes las
ofrecen para funcionar a 500 rpm. Un constructor de
unidades porttiles para limpieza con agua acostumbra
hacerlas funcionar a 600 rpm. La mayora de los usuarios de este tamao de bomba en servicio continuo prefieren operarlas a no ms de unas 400 rpm.
En las bombas de potencia trplex de 3 in de carrera
se ha aumentado la velocidad, a lo largo de los aos,
de 150 rpm a 520 rpm. Aunque las mejoras en la
construccin del extremo de potencia y el de lquido han
permitido que la bomba funcione a velocidades ms altas, a expensas de menor duracin de las empaquetaduras, el principal obstculo a las altas velocidades ha sido
el diseo del sistema. Al principio, algunos ingenieros
pensaban que una bomba ms pequea, para funcionar
a velocidad ms alta para lograr la misma capacidad,
producira menos pulsaciones en los tubos de succin y
descarga, pero no ocurre as.
La variacin de velocidad en la tubera para una
bomba trplex es de 25% sin que importen su tamao
o velocidad (Fig. 10). Para la misma capacidad, una
bomba ms pequea y que trabaje a ms rpm producir
los mismos volmenes mnimo y mximo de flujo y ms

do se duplica la velocidad de la bomba tambin se duplica la carga de aceleracin y se reduce la (NPSH), del
sistema. Adems, si se duplica la velocidad se necesita
resorte de vlvula ms fuerte, lo que aumenta la
(NPSH), de la bomba. Si la (NPSH), cae por abajo de
la (NPSH), , ocurrirn cavitacin y golpeteo.
La mejor resolucin de ese problema es un amortiguador eficaz en la tubera de succin, pero se vuelven
menos eficaces a altas frecuencias debido a la inercia de
sus piezas movibles y la del lquido que contienen, que
debe oscilar para que funcionen. Cuando ms se necesita el amortiguador, muchas veces no responde.
Mediante observaciones en el campo, el autor ha establecido un grupo de velocidades mximas recomendadas para servicio continuo (Fig. 17). El funcionamiento
intermitente y cclico a ms de esas velocidades se ha encontrado satisfactorio. Los factores como el diseo de la
bomba, diseo del sistema, gas arrastrado, altas temperaturas, slidos arrastrados, alta viscosidad y la exigencia de baja intensidad del ruido pueden exigir velocidades ms bajas.

determina por su capacidad para proveer suficiente lubricacin en todas las superficies del cojinete y apoyo en
el extremo de potencia. Algunas bombas pueden funcionar bien a apenas 20 rpm o menos. A otras, hay que
mantenerlas a 100 rpm 0 ms.
Las bombas de accin directa funcionan con velocidades que suelen estar entre 0 y 50 ciclos/min segn sea
la longitud de la carrera. La capacidad de estas bombas
para funcionar a velocidades que pueden bajar hasta el
punto de ahogo, es deseable en algunas aplicaciones.

Sistemas ropulsores de
bombas B
e potencia
La unidad motriz ms comn para las bombas de potencia es el motor elctrico, aunque a veces se utilizan
turbinas, motores de combustin y otras mquinas motrices. Las velocidades de las bombas de potencia suelen
ser entre 20 y 500 rpm; los motores tpicos trabajan entre 1 000 y 1 800 rpm. Por ello, hay que conectar el eje
500

169

o rbol del motor con el eje de la bomba con algn reductor de velocidad. En unidades de menos de 100 hp,
se utilizan las correas (bandas) en V, aunque tambin
se emplean bandas dentadas, cadenas y engranes. Para
ms de 100 hp, se emplean ms los engranes y menos
las bandas y cadenas.
En ocasiones se emplean unidades motrices de velocidad variable para dosificar en forma precisa el lquido
en el sistema. Los motovariadores pequeos suelen tener poleas de paso variable, pero hay problemas de
mantenimiento si no se aplica un factor de servicio suficiente al determinar su tamao.
Con ms de 60 hp, la velocidad variable se obtiene
con acoplamientos hidrulicos y embragues de corriente
parsita. Aunque son eficaces para controlar la velocidad y la capacidad de la bomba, el usuario debe tener
en cuenta que no obtiene ahorros de energa si opera la
bomba a velocidad reducida, salvo que la presin de
descarga caiga de acuerdo con la capacidad.
Para tener presin de descarga constante, la bomba
Irequiere
una entrada constante de par o torsin. El
acoplamiento hidrulico y el embargue de corriente
parsita necesitan el mismo par de entrada que de salida. Por tanto, el eje de entrada aI acoplamiento que gira
a velocidad constante y requiere un par constante, tambin necesita entrada constante de potencia. Cuando estos mecanismos se utilizan para bombas centrfugas, se
ahorra energa a baja velocidad porque el par requerido
para ellas vara ms o menos en relacin al cuadrado de
la velocidad.
Debido a que la eficiencia mxima de las unidades
motrices de velocidad variable es de alrededor del 97 % ,
la potencia requerida en la unidad motriz es siempre
3 % mayor que la mxima requerida por la bomba. Por
ello, en muchas plantas sus bombas de potencia funcionan a velocidad constante y se deriva el exceso de capacidad de retorno al recipiente de succin. Tambin se
utilizan motores de velocidad mltiple en combinacin
con derivaciones para controlar la capacidad.
Los motores de induccin con impulsin de frecuencia variable y las transmisiones hidrostticas ha logrado
cada vez mayor aceptacin para las bombas por el menor consumo de energa a baja velocidad de la bomba.

Slo la velocidad es ms importante que el diseo del


sistema para lograr una instalacin satisfactoria. Un diseo inadecuado producir vibraciones y ruidos en el
sistema. Las pulsaciones pueden ser de suficiente intensidad para daar los componentes de la bomba y los
instrumentos.
La experiencia en el campo y la informacin del
Hydraulic Institute aparecen condensadas a continuacin como lineamientos para a) recipiente de succin, b)
tubera de succin y c) tubera de descarga.
Para el recipiente de succin se necesita:
w Ser lo bastante grande para proveer suficiente
tiempo de retencin para que los gases libres se eleven
a la superficie del lquido.

n Que los tubos de succin y retorno penetren ms


abajo del nivel mnimo de lquido.
H Incluir un rompedor de vrtices en el tubo de succin de la bomba.
n Incluir una placa desviadora para enviar las burbujas de gas a la superficie. La parte superior de la placa
debe estar sumergida lo suficiente en el recipiente para
evitar alteraciones.
Para el tubo de succin se necesita:
n Que sea lo ms corto y directo que sea posible
w Sea uno o dos dimetros de tubo ms grande que
la conexin de succin en la bomba.
w Tenga una velocidad promedio de lquido menor
que los valores de las curvas de la figura 18.
H Tenga el mnimo de recodos; hay que utilizar codos largos o laterales.
H Impida la acumulacin de vapores en la tubera.
No debe tener puntos altos sin respiraderos. El reductor
en la bomba debe ser del tipo excntrico instalado con
el lado plano hacia arriba.
H Calcularlo de modo que la (NPSH), que permita
la carga de aceleracin sea mayor que la (NPSH)),.
n
Incluir un estabilizador de succin, botella o
amortiguador de pulsaciones en el tubo de succin y adyacente al extremo de lquido si la carga de aceleracin
es excesiva.
w Tener una vlvula de corte de apertura total para
no restringir el flujo a la bomba.
n No utilizar pichancha o filtro salvo que se les pueda dar mantenimiento peridico. El agotamiento producido por una pichancha obstruida puede producir ms
daos en la bomba que los slidos.
Para el tubo de descarga se necesita:
n Que sea uno o dos dimetros de tubo ms grande
que la conexin de descarga en la bomba.
n Que tenga una velocidad promedio menor de tres
veces la velocidad mxima en el tubo de succin.
w Que tenga el mnimo de recodos; hay que utilizar
codos largos o laterales.
n
Que incluya un amortiguador de pulsaciones o
mtodos para instalarlo, adyacente al extremo de lquido de la bomba.

La velocidad en el tubo de succi6n esta basada en una carga de


aceleracin de 0.7 ft por pie de longitud del tubo. En el tubo de
descarga se aconseja tener una velocidad de tres veces la de
SUCCi6rl.

w Que incluya una vlvula de desahogo de un tamao que deje pasar toda la capacidad de la bomba que no
exceda del 110% de su presin de disparo o apertura. La descarga de la vlvula de desahogo debe retornar
al recipiente de succin para que los gases desprendidos
en la vlvula no vuelvan a la bomba.
n Que incluya un tubo y vlvula de derivacin para
poder volver a arrancar la bomba en contra de una insignificante presin de descarga.
n
Que incluya una vlvula de retencin para no
aplicar la presin del sistema en la bomba durante el
arranque.
Los detalles de un buen sistema diseado como se
describe antes aparecen en la figura 19.

Correcciones para (NPSH)A

baja

Cuando se disea el sistema de succin para una bomba reciprocante, se puede encontrar que la (NPSH), es
menor que la (NPSH),. Entre las correcciones para la
NPSH baja estn:
w Aumentar el dimetro de la tubera de succin.
n Reducir el dimetro del tubo de succin al tenderlo en una trayectoria ms directa o bien acercar la bomba al recipiente de succin.
n Instalar una botella o estabilizador de succin o
amortiguador de pulsaciones adyacentes al extremo de
lquido de la bomba. Una botella ha dado buenos resultados con presiones menores a 50 psig, pero se necesita
mantener el nivel de lquido. Muchas veces, un tramo
de manguera de caucho en el tubo de succin, junto con
la bomba, reducir la carga de aceleracin.
n Elevar el recipiente de succin o el nivel del Iquido en el mismo.
n Reducir la temperatura del lquido que se bombea.
n Reducir la velocidad de la bomba de potencia o
instalar una ms grande que trabaje a menor velocidad.
Con una velocidad ms baja, puede ser posible operar
la bomba con resortes suaves o sin resortes en la vlvula
de succin.
Si las correcciones anteriores son insuficientes, imprcticas o imposibles, se debe instalar una bomba reforzadora que, para una bomba de potencia suele ser centrfuga,
aunque a veces se emplean bombas reciprocantes de
accin directa y rotatorias. La (NPSH), para la bomba
reforzada debe ser menor que la del sistema. La carga de
la reforzadora debe exceder de la (NPSH), de la bomba
de succin ms las prdidas en la tubera ms la carga de
aceleracin en, cuando menos, 20%. La reforzadora se
debe instalar junto al recipiente de succin e instalar una
botella o amortiguador de pulsaciones junto a la bomba
de potencia para proteger la reforzadora contra el flujo a
pulsaciones.

Si se instala un tubo de derivacin para permitir el


arranque de la bomba cuando sta descarga, se logran
ciertos beneficios. El ms importante es que se pueden
cebar todas las cmaras de bombeo; cada una de ellas
en una bomba reciprocante es independiente y funciona

BOMBAS
en paralelo con las dems. En una bomba mltiplex hay
la posibilidad de cebar una sola cmara mientras las dems estn llenas de vapores.
La bomba reciprocante suele ser autocebante. Pero, el
gran volumen de despejo o volumen libre en casi todas
ellas, imposibilita que el mbolo produzca presin apreciable de descarga cuando una cmara est llena con
gas. Por lo general, la bomba estar llena de aire despus del mantenimiento y en algunas cmaras penetra
aire que se infiltra por la empaquetadura durante los periodos de paro. En el arranque, a menudo se succiona
el aire del tubo de succin a la bomba. Por ello, es necesario mantener baja la presin de descarga durante ms
o menos los primeros 30 segundos de funcionamiento.
Esto permite que se expulse el gas de cada cmara de
bombeo y que est cebada cuando queda expuesta a la
presin de descarga. En muchos sistemas slo es posible
mantener baja la presin de descarga con un tubo de derivacin; no se debe conectar en la succin de la bomba
porque sta volvera a succionar el gas.
Otros beneficios se logran con el arranque de una
bomba de potencia en contra de una presin insignificante de descarga. El par al arranque ser el 25% del
de plena carga, con lo cual se puede emplear un motor
con par o torsin normal al arranque, que reduce el
tiempo en que hay mxima corriente. Adems, los acoplamientos, bandas V, engranes o cadenas tendrn poca
carga. El extremo de potencia de la bomba podr formar pelculas completas de lubricante en las superficies
de deslizamiento y los mbolos se mojarn con el lubricante o con el lquido bombeado.
Si una bomba empieza a funcionar con brusquedad
o se reduce su capacidad durante el funcionamiento
normal, es probable que haya succin de gas a una o
ms cmaras de bombeo. Si el sistema tiene tubo de derivacin (Fig. 19) slo hay que abrir la vlvula de derivacin hasta que salga el gas. Si persiste la succin de
gas, hay que buscar y eliminar su fuente.

Si por los requisitos del proceso o en una emergencia


es indispensable arrancar la bomba de potencia en contra de la presin del sistema, se recomienda que: 1) el
par de arranque del motor debe superar, cuando menos,
en 50% al par de funcionamiento; 2) los componentes
del sistema propulsor deben ser adecuados para el par
de arranque del motor; 3) la bomba no debe estar parada ms de 10 h sin tener algn sistema para prelubricar
los cojinetes del extremo de potencia y 4) se deben mantener cebadas las cmaras de bombeo.

Volumen de despejo
El volumen de despejo o libre de la cmara de bombeo en la bomba reciprocante es el volumen en ella
cuando el mbolo o pistn est al final de su carrera de
descarga (Fig. 20). El volumen libre, c, se suele expresar
como fraccin o porcentaje del desplazamiento, d y se
denomina relacin c/d o porcentaje de espacio libre.
La mayor parte de las bombas reciprocantes tienen
una relacin c/d de 2 a 4 (200 % a 400 %) y estos valores
son mayores en las bombas de mbolos que en las de pistones. Se han diseado bombas de mbolo con relaciones c/d de apenas 0.5. Las bombas de pistn con mnimo
volumen libre, destinadas a lquidos voltiles, tienen relaciones c/d de alrededor de O. 15
Todos los lquidos se comprimen, algunos ms que
otros, cuando aumenta la presin. Entre 15 y 10 000
psia, el agua se comprime 3 % . El propano se comprime
alrededor de 5% entre 150 y 3 000 psia. El lquido atrapado en el volumen libre a presin de descarga se debe
expandir hasta la presin de succin antes de que se
abra la vlvula de succin.
Si en una bomba con relacin c/d de 3 se bombea un
lquido que se comprime 5%, el mbolo se debe mover
un 15 % de su carrera de succin antes de que la presin
en la cmara baje hasta la presin de succin. Esto ocasiona una reduccin de 15 % en la capacidad, medida en
el tubo de succin. Cuando se hace la seleccin de la
bomba, su tamao debe ser 15 % mayor del normal y al
determinar el propulsor es preferible que tenga la potencia requerida para agua, porque el lquido podra ser
una mezcla menos compresible que lo previsto.
La relacin c/d tambin se refleja en la capacidad de
autocebado o de eliminacin de gases de la bomba reciprocante, si se llena de gas. Con un volumen libre de
15 % , una bomba puede producir una relacin de presin de 15 con aire, pero con un volumen libre de 300 %
slo se logra una relacin de presin de 1.5. Cuando hay
aire atmosfrico inicialmente en la cmara, la primera
bomba citada descargara a alrededor de 200 psig y la
segunda slo a unas 7 psig. Por tanto, si llegan a succionar cualquier cantidad de gas, habr un descenso notable en el rendimiento.

La alta presin de succin requiere cuidados especiales en las bombas reciprocantes, en particular las de accin sencilla. En las bombas de accin sencilla y doble,

BOMBAS DE DESPLAZAMIENTO POSITIVO

de la bomba

puede ser necesario aumentar las presiones de diseo de


la brida y mltiple de succin.
Una bomba de pistn de doble accin a veces necesita
un vstago de gua par? igualar las fuerzas aplicadas al
pistn durante ambas carreras. En otra forma, la fuerza
de la presin de succin aplicada en la carga externa
grande del pistn puede exceder de la fuerza de la presin de descarga que acta en la superficie ms pequeia, porque en ella est la biela, de la cara interna. En
este caso, la biela estar en compresin todo el tiempo,
cosa indeseable en las bombas de accin directa y las de
potencia.
Esta tcnica no est disponible para las bombas de potencia de accin sencilla. Conforme sube la presin de
succin, aumenta la carga aplicada en los cojinetes, cigeal y otros componentes del extremo de potencia.
Un diagrama del momento de flexin del cigeal en
una bomba trplex indica que 3 psig de presin de succin imponen el mismo momento de flexin en el cigea1
que 1 psig de presin de descarga. Entonces, para determinar la presin efectiva de descarga, sobre la base del
momento de flexin del cigeal, se agrega 1/3 de la
presin de succin a la presin de descarga.
Otro factor en una bomba de accin sencilla es el efecto de la alta presin de succin sobre los cojinetes. Si la
presin de succin excede en alrededor de 3 % de la presin mxima de descarga, la biela permanece en compresin durante la carrera de succin; debido a esta
carga continua de compresin, los cojinetes en ambos
extremos de la biela soportan el esfuerzo continuo en la
misma zona. Si se,introduce aceite en cualquier cojinete
por un agujero en el centro de esa zona, no podr pasar
el aceite. Hay un problema adicional en el pasador o
perno de la cruceta porque el cojinete de la biela oscila
en el pasador en un arco total de unos 22.
LOS sistemas de lubricacin a presin no ayudan en la
solucin del problema porque las presiones en los cojinetes son de alrededor de 1 000 psig y los sistemas de lubricacin rara vez funcionan ms de 60 psig.
Cuando se han utilizado los extremos de potencia en
condiciones de alta succin y cargas elevadas sin las me-

didas necesarias en su construccin, se han producido


altas temperaturas y corta duracin de los cojinetes en
ellos. El cojinete que sufre ms desgaste suele ser el del
pasador de la cruceta, pero como tiene la carga en el
mismo sentido en todo momento, no hay golpeteo y la
bomba funciona sin ruido. Para resolver el problema de
la alta presin de succin se resuelve con el cambio de
lugar de los puntos para entrada de aceite o con el empleo de cojinetes especiales.
Tambin es necesario reducir la presin mxima permisible de descarga. Si slo hubiera la preocupacin por
la flexin del cigeal, la presin de descarga se reducira en 1/3 de la seccin. Las pruebas indican que las
temperaturas en el extremo de potencia, aunque tengan
los cojinetes adecuados, aumentan mucho con una alta
presin de succin. Se encontr en una bomba que un aumento de 1 psi en la presin de succin equivali en el
extremo de potencia a un aumento de temperatura por
un incremento de alrededor de 1.5 en la presin de descarga.
Una alta presin de succin perjudica mucho a la eticiencia mecnica. La mayora de las bombas de
potencia con pistn son de accin sencilla. Por tanto, las
cargas aplicadas en el extremo de potencia no son proporcionales a la presin diferencial (descarga menos succin) como ocurrira en una bomba de doble accin,
sino que son ms semejantes a la suma de la presin de
descarga y la presin de succin. El extremo de potencia
experimenta los efectos de la plena presin de descarga
de cada mbolo en la carrera de descarga y de cada mbolo en carrera de succin. Tambin experimenta una
carga casi igual a la que habra si ese mbolo estuviera
descargando a la presin de succin. Este aumento en
las cargas de cojinetes y en la friccin en la empaquetadura hace que aumente la prdida por friccin. Al mismo tiempo, el aumento en la presin de succin hace
que se reduzca la potencia de salida (hidrulica). Esta
combinacin hace que disminuya la eficiencia mecnica, a veces en forma importante.
El consumo de potencia se puede predecir con una
exactitud razonable si se calcula la potencia que requerira la bomba a la presin nominal de descarga y con
succin a presin atmosfrica y, luego, se resta la cantidad de potencia lograda por la bomba con la presin de
succin. Se trata de determinar la eficiencia de la succin y se ha encontrado que es de 3 a 5% menor que la
efkiencia.de descarga; para tener valor conservador, se
resta 5 %. En el siguiente ejemplo se describe el clculo
de 10s requisitos de potencia para una alta presin de
succin.
carga de 1 000 psig a 30 gpm. La bomba seleccionada
es trplex de 2 x 3 con carga nomina1 mxima en el mbolo de 4 460 Ib a 330 rpm. iCul es la eficiencia mecnica total de la bomba?
Primero, se calcula que la carga del mbolo de descarga es:
(~/4)(2~)(1 000) = 3 140 Ib
Despus, se calcula cul fraccin representa esto de la
carga mxima de la bomba a partir de: 3 140/4 000 =
0.705. Con las curvas de la figura 14 se determina que

BOMBAS RECIPROCANTES
la eficiencia mecnica de esta bomba con esta carga es:
q7m = 0.89, en el supuesto de que la empaquetadura
est lubricada.
Ahora se rearregla la ecuacin (2) para encontrar la
potencia de entrada y se tienen en cuenta las presiones
de succin y descarga. El resultado se convierte en:

Pi*m

1 715

p, = 38(1,000)

1 715
1 715(0.89) -

Pi = 24.9 - 9.3 = 15.6 hp


La salida de potencia de la bomba se calcula con:
p, =+$=s= 11.1 hp

La eficiencia mecnica general con esta carga es de

11.1
- = 0.71
vm=pi= 15.6
Entonces, una bomba que tiene una eficiencia mecnica de 89 % con una presin de succin de 0 psig y una
presin de descarga de 1 000 psig, sufre una reduccin
de la eficiencia al 71% si se aumenta la presin de succin a 500 psig.
Aunque la eficiencia de descarga, utilizada en la ecuacin (6) sea del 89 % y la eficiencia de succin del 84 % ,
la eficiencia total es 71% . Para evitar confusiones cuando se informe de las eficiencias de bombas que funcionan
con alta presin de succin, hay que entender el fenmeno descrito y tener cuidado de sealar con claridad de
cul eficiencia se trata.
La ecuacin (6) dar resultados precisos para todas
las presiones de succin aunque, por lo general, no se
utiliza hasta que la presin de succin exceda del 5 % de
la de descarga.

Aplicaciones para pastas aguadas


La bomba reciprocante estndar no est destinada a
manejar pastas aguadas. Se necesitan modificaciones en
los diseos normales y, en algunos casos, diseos especides para tener funcionamiento y duracin de componentes satisfactorios.

173

Para tener duracin adecuada de la empaquetadura y


el mbolo, hay que evitar que la pasta aguada llegue a
la empaquetadura. Los mtodos incluyen un anillo raspador entre el material bombeado y la empaquetadura,
un buje de garganta larga, inyeccin de lquido limpio
hacia la garganta, intercalar un diafragma o pistn flotante entre el mbolo y el material y eliminacin completa de las vlvulas en la zona del prensaestopas. Esto
ltimo requiere una columna de lquidos entre las vlvulas y el prensaestopas, que aumenta el volumen libre
y la carga de aceleracin dentro de la bomba.
A menudo se requieren vlvulas especiales para pastas aguadas. Segn sea el tipo de slidos, pueden ser de
bola, de campana, de asiento cnico con inserto de elastmero, tipo guiado con aletas con asiento de superficie
reducida o de disco con asientos especiales. La construccin especial puede impedir que la pasta aguada llegue
a la empaquetadura, pero no hay forma de evitar el contacto directo de las vlvulas con la pasta.

* Die in den Tabellen gewhlten PKS und MKS sowie


das gewhlte Keilriemenprofil dienen als Anhalt fr die
Antriebsauslegung.
Je nach bersetzungsverhltnis knnen auch Motore mit
anderen Drehzahlen und entsprechend genderte MKS /
PKS verwendet werden.
Zwischengrssen von Frdermenge / Drehzahl bzw.
Druck / Menge / KW knnen durch lineare Umrechnung
ausreichend genau bestimmt werden.

* The stated pump and motor pulley sizes as well as the


V-belt model stated in the table serve as a guide in setting up the drive configuration.
Depending on the transmission ratio. motors with other
speeds together with properly sized motor and pump
pulleys can also be used.
Intermediate values for output / speed and pressure /
output / kW can be established by linear extrapolation.

Allgemeine Formel zur Ermittlung des Kraftbedarfs:

A general formula for calculating power is:

P (bar) x Q (l/min) = kW
475

P (bar) x Q (l/min) = kW

* Die in den Tabellen gewhlten PKS und MKS sowie


das gewhlte Keilriemenprofil dienen als Anhalt fr die
Antriebsauslegung.
Je nach bersetzungsverhltnis knnen auch Motore mit
anderen Drehzahlen und entsprechend genderte MKS /
PKS verwendet werden.
Zwischengrssen von Frdermenge / Drehzahl bzw.
Druck / Menge / KW knnen durch lineare Umrechnung
ausreichend genau bestimmt werden.

* The stated pump and motor pulley sizes as well as the


V-belt model stated in the table serve as a guide in setting up the drive configuration.
Depending on the transmission ratio. motors with other
speeds together with properly sized motor and pump
pulleys can also be used.
Intermediate values for output / speed and pressure /
output / kW can be established by linear extrapolation.

Allgemeine Formel zur Ermittlung des Kraftbedarfs:

A general formula for calculating power is:

P (bar) x Q (l/min) = kW
475

P (bar) x Q (l/min) = kW
475

* Die in den Tabellen gewhlten PKS und MKS sowie


das gewhlte Keilriemenprofil dienen als Anhalt fr die
Antriebsauslegung.
Je nach bersetzungsverhltnis knnen auch Motore mit
anderen Drehzahlen und entsprechend genderte MKS /
PKS verwendet werden.
Zwischengrssen von Frdermenge / Drehzahl bzw.
Druck / Menge / KW knnen durch lineare Umrechnung
ausreichend genau bestimmt werden.

* The stated pump and motor pulley sizes as well as the


V-belt model stated in the table serve as a guide in setting up the drive configuration.
Depending on the transmission ratio, motors with other
speeds together with properly sized motor and pump
pulleys can also be used.
Intermediate values for output / speed and pressure /
output / kW can be established by linear extrapolation.

Allgemeine Formel zur Ermittlung des Kraftbedarfs:

A general formula for calculating power is:

P (bar) x Q (l/min) = kW
475

P (bar) x Q (l/min) = kW

* Die in den Tabellen gewhlten PKS und MKS sowie


das gewhlte Keilriemenprofil dienen als Anhalt fr die
Antriebsauslegung.
Je nach bersetzungsverhltnis knnen auch Motore mit
anderen Drehzahlen und entsprechend genderte MKS /
PKS verwendet werden.
Zwischengrssen von Frdermenge / Drehzahl bzw.
Druck / Menge / KW knnen durch lineare Umrechnung
ausreichend genau bestimmt werden.

* The stated pump and motor pulley sizes as well as the


V-belt model stated in the table serve as a guide in setting up the drive configuration.
Depending on the transmission ratio, motors with other
speeds together with properly sized motor and pump
pulleys can also be used.
Intermediate values for output / speed and pressure /
output / kW can be established by linear extrapolation.

Allgemeine Formel zur Ermittlung des Kraftbedarfs:


P ( bar )xQ( l / min)
= kW

A general formula for calculating power is:


P ( bar )xQ( l / min)
= kW
475

EJEMPLO DE SELECCIN
Se requiere seleccionar una bomba Speck de mbolos triplex para la siguiente instalacin:

2.5 [m]

El fluido a bombear es un aceite SAE 50, a razn de 20 [lpm].


La longitud real de la tubera de succin es de 6 [m]. La longitud total equivalente de la
tubera descarga es de 135 [m]. La diferencia de altura entre los dos tanques es variable
en el tiempo, alcanzando su mximo en 11.5 [m].
Calcule los dimetros de la tubera y seleccione la bomba que se adapte a las necesidades,
especificando su velocidad de rotacin y potencia consumida.

Tubera
Succin:
Para la succin, debemos garantizar que la bomba no cavite. Para ello, debemos saber qu
modelo vamos a usar. En la carta de preseleccin aparecen los siguientes:

Nuestro problema requiere un gasto volumtrico de 20 [lpm]. De la serie NP podramos


usar la 16. El problema es que el caudal mximo que maneja (20 [lpm]) est en
condiciones de agua a mxima velocidad. La norma API 674 que regula las bombas de
desplazamiento positivo reciprocantes especifica la mxima velocidad que se puede usar
en la mquina debido a la viscosidad del fluido. As que despus de la reduccin que
tendremos que hacer por usar aceite SAE 50, el flujo ser menor a 20 [lpm]. Entonces
podramos pensar en la NP25, pero resulta siendo una mquina muy grande (Maneja
caudales hasta de 70 [lpm]). De la serie P, podemos usar el modelo 20, 21 22. Miremos
el desempeo de stas bombas:
P21

Reduccin de la Velocidad Mxima:


Aqu nos indican que podemos llegar hasta 1420 [rpm] con agua. La norma API 674
recomienda una disminucin a esta velocidad mxima por efecto de la viscosidad (Lo cual
ya habamos mencionado). Para 950 [cSt] (4400 SSU), podemos leer el porcentaje de la
Velocidad mxima que es Admisible usar en la Figura 1, es decir, 72%

Es decir que podemos llegar mximo hasta 1420*0.72 = 1022 [rpm]. Pero para esta
1022
velocidad el caudal es de
23.1 = 16.63[lpm] . As que se descarta.
1420

P22

Descartamos la primera opcin (P22/15-280) por tener un flujo mximo de 15 [lpm]. Para
escoger entre una bomba que ofrece 100 y otra 130 [bar] de presin mxima del sistema,
debemos conocer las prdidas y la carga esttica del mismo. Esta ltima es de 102 [KPa]
(aproximadamente 1 [bar]). La carga debida a las prdidas est directamente relacionada
con el dimetro de la tubera. Usaremos una bomba de 100 [bar] de presin mxima y si el
sistema exige una presin mayor, pensaremos en usar la de 130 [bar].
Un dato que nos interesa en este momento es el NPSH requerido por la bomba, el cual es
de 6.5 [mca].
Sabemos que el NPSH requerido por la bomba es la presin mnima que debe tener el
fluido a la entrada para que el aparato funcione bien. Lo que debemos proveerle (el NPSH
disponible) debe ser mayor. En nuestro caso el NPSH disponible se puede calcular
mediante la siguiente expresin:

NPSHd =

patm pvapor

+ H asp H f suc ha

Lo que decimos es que la altura (presin) neta de aspiracin disponible es la presin que
tena el fluido cuando empez su recorrido hacia la bomba (patm) menos o mas:
- Hasp Es la diferencia de altura entre el tanque de succin y la bomba, la cual
puede favorecer la cavitacin (El tanque por debajo de la bomba, en tal
caso Hasp es negativo) o evitarla (El tanque por encima de la bomba, en tal
caso ocurre lo contrario).
- Hf-suc Son las prdidas de presin en la tubera de succin
- ha
Es la carga de aceleracin (o carga inercial). Debido a que la circulacin de
fluido en las tuberas no es constante (por el movimiento alternativo de los
mbolos), ste tiene que acelerar y desacelerar cierto nmero de veces por
cada revolucin del cigeal. Para producir dicha aceleracin en la succin,
se necesita que el fluido tenga cierta presin, la que se conoce como Carga
de Aceleracin. Si no se provee al flujo de dicha presin, al llegar a la
bomba habr gastado una presin excesiva tratando de suplir la carga de
aceleracin, descendiendo hasta llegar a la presin de vapor del fluido y
ocasionando cavitacin.

Para calcular la carga inercial, el libro de Kenneth ofrece la siguiente


ecuacin:
LVNC
ha =
kg
Donde L es la longitud real (no equivalente) de la tubera de succin (ft)
V es la velocidad del lquido en la succin (ft/s)
N es la velocidad de rotacin de la bomba (rpm)
C es una constante que depende del tipo de bomba

g es la constante gravitatoria (32.2 ft/s2)
Las unidades de la carga de aceleracin son pies de columna de
agua.
Velocidad del fluido:
Para calcular la velocidad, necesitamos saber el rea de la seccin transversal del tubo,
pero no conocemos su dimetro. Para manejar 20 [lpm] de fluido (5.3 [gpm]) se
recomiendan los siguientes dimetros:

Entonces asumiremos un dimetro nominal de 1 (para luego comprobar), el cual


tiene un dimetro interno de 40.9 [mm]. (Ver Anexo)

[ ]

La velocidad de rotacin de la mquina es otro dato necesario para calcular la carga


inercial. La podemos hallar de la tabla de desempeo de la bomba:

De nuevo tenemos dos opciones: Acoplar un motor girando a 1100 [rpm], el cual maneja
un flujo de 21.5 [lpm] y luego estrangular el flujo o buscar la velocidad de rotacin ptima.
1000 [rpm]
19.5 [lpm]
1100 [rpm]
21.5 [lpm]
Iterando, la velocidad de rotacin adecuada de la bomba es de 1025 [rpm]
Con los datos anteriores, volvemos a la ecuacin de la Carga de Aceleracin:
Las constantes son: C = 0.066 y k = 1.5

Y regresamos al NPSH disponible:

NPSHd =

patm pvapor

H asp H f suc ha

Trabajaremos la ecuacin en trminos de presin en [psi]:


- Altura de Aspiracin:
N
H asp = H 2O SG H = 9810 3 0.902 2.5[m] = 24.5[KPa ] = 3.55[ psi ]
m
- Carga de Aceleracin (En pies de columna de agua)
pies de agua
ha = 3.80[ psi]

= psi
2 .3
Entonces,

NPSH d = patm pvapor H asp H f ha


= 14.7 0 + 3.55 H f 3.80
NPSH d = 14.45 H f
Comparando con el NPSH requerido (6.5 [mca] 9.25 [psi]):

NPSH d NPSH r
14.45 H f 9.25[ psi ]
H f 5.2[ psi ]
Revisemos si el dimetro de 1 que habamos escogido cumple con la condicionalidad
anterior:

Para 5.3 [gpm] y 4400 [SSU], 0.211 [psi/pie].


Longitud Total Equivalente de la Succin:
Note que en la tubera de succin hay dos codos de 90 y hay que tener en cuenta la salida
de tubera del tanque. En el ejemplo de Seleccin de bombas IMO explicamos el mtodo
usado por el libro de Crane. Aqu usaremos un nomograma de consulta rpida
incorporado en la informacin ingenieril de Viking:

Entonces, la longitud total equivalente de la tubera de succin es de:


6 [m]
Longitud Real
+ 4.5 [m]
Entrada de Tubera
+ 5.0 [m]
Codo
15.5 [m] (50.9 [pies])
Longitud Total Equivalente
Por lo tanto, las prdidas en la succin sern de:

psi
H f = 50.9[ pies] 0.211

pie
H f = 10.74[ psi]
Las prdidas son mayores a las admisibles (5.2 [psi]), entonces aumentamos el dimetro.
Cambio de Dimetro
Necesitamos usar un dimetro 1 , el cual disminuya las prdidas hasta el mximo
permisible. Usemos la calculadora para consultar las prdidas de presin al usar un
dimetro de 2. Los datos a ingresar son:
Dimetro:
52.5 [mm] = 0.172244 [pies]
Longitud Total Equivalente de la Succin:
15.5 [m] = 50.9 [pies]
Caudal:
20 [lpm] = 0,01177 [pie3/s]
Rugosidad de la Tubera (Acero Comercial):
0.05 [mm] = 0,000164042 [pies]
Viscosidad Cinemtica:
950 [cSt] = 0,0102257 [pie2/s]
Gravedad
32.2 [pie/s2]
Prdida de Presin por Friccin:
1.256 [pies de fluido]
1.133 [pies agua] = 0.5 [psi]
Entonces el dimetro de Succin es de 2 cumple con la condicin H f 5.2[ psi ] .
En la descarga podemos poner el dimetro ms pequeo que se recomienda (3/4), ya
que la mquina soporta presiones hasta de 100 [bar]
psi
1 pie

H f desc = 3.01
135m
= 1333.2[ psi ]

0.3048m
pie

Y H est = 9810 0.905 11.5 = 102.1[KPa] = 14.81[ psi]


Entonces,
p = H f suc + H f desc + H est
= 0.5 + 1333.2 + 14.81
p = 1348.5[ psi ] = 92.97[bar ]

Para conocer la potencia consumida, vamos de nuevo a la tabla de desempeo:

Interpolando para 1025 [rpm] y 92.97 [bar], tenemos la potencia consumida. Para hallar la
potencia de eje a 100 [bar] y 1000 [rpm], encontramos la eficiencia de la mquina:
Q p
Pot eje =

Q p
=
=
Pot eje

19.5 90
600 = 0.8125
3.6

Entonces la potencia para 100 [bar] y 1000 [rpm] es de


Q p 19.5 100
Pot eje =
=
= 4[KW ]

0.8125
Interpolamos entre los valores anteriores, la potencia del eje del Sistema: 3.80 [KW]
Se deben usar 3 correas en V (XPZ) para la transmisin.

* For liquids with a specific gravity other than 1.00, multiply the value from the above table
by the specific gravity of the liquid. For old pipe, add 20% to the above values.
Figures to right of dark line are laminar flow. Figures to left of dark line are turbulent flow.

To convert the above values to kPa (kilopascals) per metre of pipe, multiply by 22.6.
To convert the above values to kg per cm per metre of pipe, multiply by 0.23.
