Pump Classification
Classified by operating principle

Type of Pumps
If pipe blocked
Pressure rises
Can damage pump

Type of Pumps
Rotary pump
Displacement by rotary action of gear, cam
or vanes
Several sub-types
Used for special services in industry 17
Type of Pumps
Dynamic pumps
Mode of operation
Rotating impeller converts kinetic energy
into pressure or velocity to pump the fluid
Two types
Centrifugal pumps: pumping water in
industry 75% of pumps installed
Special effect pumps: specialized conditions

Type of Pumps
Centrifugal Pumps
How do they work?
Liquid forced into
impeller
Vanes pass kinetic
energy to liquid: liquid
rotates and leaves
impeller
Volute casing converts
kinetic energy into
pressure energy

Impeller
Main rotating part that provides centrifugal
acceleration to the fluid
Number of impellers = number of pump stages
Impeller classification: direction of flow, suction type
and shape/mechanical construction
Shaft
Transfers torque from motor to impeller during pump
start up and operation
21
Type of Pumps
Centrifugal Pumps
Casings
Functions Volute Casing (Sahdev)
Enclose impeller as pressure vessel
Support and bearing for shaft and impeller
Volute case
Impellers inside casings
Balances hydraulic pressure on pump shaft
Circular casing
Vanes surrounds impeller
22
Used for multi-stage pumps

Head increases:
does not reduce
power use
Vibration and
corrosion: high
maintenance
costs and reduced
pump lifetime

7. Impeller Trimming
Changing diameter: change in
velocity
Considerations
Cannot be used with varying flows
No trimming >25% of impeller size
Impeller trimming same on all sides
Changing impeller is better option but more
expensive and not always possible
