FIRE PROTECTION APPROVAL STANDARDS SPP has one of the widest ranges of approved and listed equipment in the world complying with the demanding requirements of the UL and FM approval standards and meeting all the requirements of NFPA 20. Along with these approvals, SPP’s fire products are also approved for use in many other markets such as Europe, The Far East, The Middle East and Africa. Although many pump companies can offer equipment ‘designed to’ the various locally applicable fire rules and regulations, only a very select few have had their pumps subjected to the stringent performance and reliability tests of specialist fire approval laboratories. Being the first to achieve fire pump approval and listing by the internationally recognised Loss Prevention Certification Board the company today has more pumps approved by the LPCB than any other manufacturer.

PUMP INSTALLATION Fixed pumps must be securely anchored to firm foundations. Pumps must be accurately levelled with shafts, coupling faces and flange faces truly horizontal or vertical (as appropriate). The pump and driver shafts should be truly in line in all senses and checks and requisite adjustments should be made by means of wedges and shims both in initial setting-up and after grouting in and tightening down. Foreign matter must be prevented from ingress to liquid openings, bearings, etc., and external pipe-bores ensured clean before connecting. Pipework must be brought up to pump orifices, and independently supported, so as not to impose any weight or strain on the pump when connected. Make sure at all stages that the pump will turn freely. For fuller particulars see specific instructions as supplied with pumps. Section 4

Section 6

Method Vibration measurements will be made on the pump bearing housings, as close as is practical to the bearing positions. For each bearing position two measurements will be taken perpendicular to the pump rotation axis. In addition an axial measurement will be taken at the thrust bearing position. The measurements will be of velocity, overall RMS values, in mm/s. In order to reliably achieve the stated acceptance limits the pump must be rigidly restrained, aligned to the driver within the coupling makers recommendations, operating without cavitation or air entrainment. Pipe work must be arranged to provide straight uniform flow into the pump and be connected and anchored so as avoid strains and resonance.

CONDITION MONITORING In order to minimise the ownership costs of capital equipment, it is critical for the user to monitor and maintain the equipment once installed. Failure to do so will impact both on the mechanical integrity and economic performance of the installed equipment. Early diagnosis of potential equipment failure can result in considerable repair cost savings and crucially a reduction in unplanned downtime. Monitoring of pump energy consumption and system efficiency will bring visibility to pump wear, operating efficiency and highlight any system irregularities. All of these factors will help minimise energy consumption and reduce operating costs. The SPP condition monitoring systems can provide this level of security by detecting, analysing and evaluating key equipment performance. These include the following: • Performance/Efficiency degradation • Bearing vibration levels • Bearing element damage • Bearing operating temperatures • Driver alignment condition • Residual unbalance • Cavitation The system provides considerable flexibility in the display and use of the diagnostic output. The options include web based user configurable dashboard for live and trend data, automatic notification of alerts by text or email and local download of data to PC for detailed evaluation.

Section 8

Flow Estimation Methods Many pumping systems are fitted with permanently installed flowmeters which enable a reasonably accurate measurement of system flow to be obtained. Where permanent flowmeters are not installed, it is often possible to use external clamp-on meters, insertion meters or thermodynamic testing equipment to determine system flow. However, it is not always practical to use these devices – either for financial reasons or system layout constraints – and where this is the case, alternative indirect methods need to be used for estimating system flow. There are a number of methods available to enable an estimation of flow to be made in the field. Each of these methods requires some form of knowledge of the system or the pump, and all have inherent inaccuracies of varying degrees. However, in the absence of any more accurate flow measuring apparatus, these can be the only alternatives available. There are four main indirect methods of determining pump flow in the field: • Pressure method • Power method • Drop test • Suction pressure measurement The Pressure and Power methods require the use of the pump curve, whilst the drop test requires sump geometry and level details.

Pressure MEASUREMENT This is the more accurate and simplest of the four methods, requiring suction and delivery pressure gauge readings, a copy of the pump performance curve at the correct operational speed and knowledge of the impeller diameter. Determine the differential head across the pump by subtracting the suction head from the discharge head. Then use the pump performance curve to obtain the pump flow at the measured head and impeller diameter. For example, if the suction head is measured as 3m and the discharge head as 63m, the pump differential head is 60m. Using the pump manufacturers original test curve for the pump, the flow can be estimated as 150 l/s. Contents

PUMP SPECIFICATION AND OPERATION

Over time, a pumpâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Flow/Head curve will change as wear occurs within the pump. Therefore, the accuracy of this method will tend to reduce as the pump gets older. However, this will remain a more accurate method than the others detailed below. Where existing installed site gauges are used, it should be remembered that their accuracy may be far from ideal. Remember that the pump Q/H curve is based on differential head, normally pumping water with an SG of 1. If the site liquid being pumped has an SG other than 1, SG correction should be applied to the site pressure readings to match the performance curve being used.

Power Measurement Power meters are rarely available on site, but amps (I) and volts (V) are commonly displayed at the control panel. These readings can be used to calculate power, although this also requires motor efficiency and power factor data - which will need to be estimated if motor manufacturers information is not available. Power (kW) = (1.732 x I x V x eff x pf)/1000 Using this equation, the pump power can be calculated and from this, the flow can be read off the pump curve. Contents

For example, if the current is read as 165A, the voltage as 400V and motor efficiency and pf from manufacturers’ data are 95% and 0.92 respectively, the calculated power becomes: Power = (1.732 x 400 x 165 x 0.95 x 0.92)/1000 = 100kW

Reading across the power scale on the pump manufacturers curve, the flow at this absorbed power can be obtained – 150 l/s in this example. As mentioned above, a pump’s Flow/Head curve and efficiency curve will change as wear occurs within the pump. This will affect the pump’s power curve and therefore, as with the pressure measurement method, accuracy will tend to reduce as the pump gets older. It should also be remembered that the installed instruments from which readings are taken may themselves be inaccurate, as it is unlikely that they will not have been calibrated to any significant accuracy since their original installation. As an alternative to the above calculation, taking a simple current ratio (actual current/full load current) and applying it to the motor rated power can give a reasonable estimation of the motor output power. In the above example, assuming a 132kW motor with a full load current of 230A, this method would result in a duty power of (165/230)*132 = 95kW, and a resultant flow of around 135 l/s.

PUMP SPECIFICATION AND OPERATION

Although the power method can be used very effectively in situations where a quick approximate on site estimate is required, it should not be applied to high specific speed pumps such as vertical turbine or mixed flow pumps, whose power curves can follow significantly different rules.

Drop Test This is the least accurate method, and requires knowledge of sump dimensions and levels. It is often used on sewage pump installations, where sump emptying occurs over a relatively short period of time. In this method, the time taken for a pump to lower the sump level over a known depth is recorded. The volume of liquid pumped is then calculated based on the sump level change and the sump area, and is divided by the time taken to arrive at a volume flow rate. For example, if a sump has dimensions of 4m x 3m, and the level is reduced by 1m over a time period of 10 minutes, the average pump flow is (4 x 3 x 1)/10 = 1.2 m3/min, or 72 m3/h This method has a number of inherent inaccuracies: • During the drop test, it is likely that flow will continue to enter the sump. This will affect the result – the extent of the effect will depend upon the rate of inflow in proportion to the outflow. • The sump may not have a uniform section, making volume calculation less accurate. • As the level is lowered, the total head on the pump changes which will affect the pump output. Any resultant calculation will only give an average flow over the range of heads. • Measurement of pumped depth may be difficult if there is no installed measuring equipment.

SUCTION PRESSURE MEASUREMENT In most pumping stations, it is possible to obtain a pressure reading on the suction side of the pumps. The velocity and friction head components of this reading can be used to estimate the flow. To use this method, it is necessary to know the pressure drop on the pump suction (static suction pressure operational suction pressure), the type and number of pipe fittings up to the pressure measurement point and fittings diameter. An estimation of the Contents

fittings friction (K) factor is also required. Convert the suction pressure drop (P in kPA) into a head drop (Zd in meters) using the equation: Zd = P x 0.102 sg (note that this Zd calculation will change depending on your site measured units) Obtain a total K factor for the suction fittings up to the measurement point. Assuming there are no significant straight pipe losses in the suction, the following equation can then be used to determine the flow velocity: Zd = V2 x (1+K) 2g Once the velocity is known, the flow rate can be calculated using the suction diameter. This method can be adapted to suit a wide variety of suction and pump configuration and the available locations for pressure measurement. Although there are potential inaccuracies in determining K factors and internal diameters, careful use of this method can allow the velocity to be estimated to within a few percent.

Conclusion There is no single simple and accurate method of determining flow in systems where installed meters are not present, or where the use of alternative temporary flow metering equipment cannot be fitted. Instead there are a number of methods that can be utilised to obtain an approximate pumping rate, which in many cases may be sufficient for the purposes required. All these methods have limitations and inherent inaccuracies. Where these methods need to be employed, it is worthwhile applying at least two methods to get comparative results.

Application Do’s and Don’ts Suction & Delivery Piping Ensure that bolt grouting or chemical anchors are allowed to dry thoroughly before connecting any pipework. Note that fire pumpsets have regulatory requirements for piping and these must be strictly observed. Refer to the appropriate standard for details. Both suction and discharge piping should be supported independently and close to the pump so that no strain is transmitted to the pump when the flange bolts are tightened. Use pipe hangers or other supports at intervals necessary to provide support. When expansion joints are used in the piping system, they must be installed beyond the piping supports closest to the pump. Install piping as straight as possible, avoiding unnecessary bends. Where necessary, use 45º or long sweep 90º bends to decrease friction losses.

Make sure that all piping joints are airtight. Where reducers are used, eccentric or â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;flat topâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; reducers are to be fitted in suction lines and concentric or straight taper reducers in discharge lines. The length of eccentric reducers should be about four times the pump suction diameter. Undulations in the pipe runs are also to be avoided. Failure to comply with this may cause the formation of air pockets in the pipework and thus prevent the correct operation of the pump and measuring equipment. The suction pipe should be as short and direct as possible, and should be flushed clean before connecting to the pump. For suction lift applications, it is advisable to use a foot valve. Horizontal suction lines must have a gradual rise to the pump. If the pumped fluid is likely to contain foreign matter then a filter or coarse strainer should be fitted to prevent ingress to the pump. The discharge pipe is usually preceded by a non-return valve or check valve and a discharge gate valve. The check valve is to maintain system pressure in case of stoppage or failure of the driver. The discharge valve is used to prevent back flow when shutting down the pump for maintenance.

Coupling alignment Periodical checks of shaft alignments should be undertaken and if necessary adjusted accordingly. In order to maintain the warranty status of your SPP pump it is recommended to take out an SPP preventative maintenance contract. SPPâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s field service engineers have extensive experience in pump and coupling alignment. Refer to the pump and coupling instruction manuals for details of shaft alignment procedures and tolerances or proceed generally thus: a) Lateral Alignment Mount a dial gauge on the motor shaft or coupling with the gauge running on the outer-machined diameter of the pump coupling. Turn the motor shaft and note the total indicator reading. b) Angular Alignment Mount a dial gauge on the motor shaft or coupling to run on a face of the pump coupling as near to the outside diameter as possible. Turn the motor shaft and note the total indicator reading at top & bottom and each side. Contents

Mount the dial gauge on the pump shaft or coupling with the gauge running on the machined outer diameter of the motor coupling. Turn the pump shaft and note the total indicator reading. d) Adjustment The motor must be shimmed and re-positioned to align the shafts to the coupling manufacturerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s specifications. Note: Shaft alignment must be checked again after the final positioning of the pump unit and connection to pipework as this may have disturbed the pump or driver mounting positions.

Engine Driven Pumps Air is required for combustion and cooling purposes, with air and radiator cooled engines in particular needing large volumes of air for cooling. Inlet and outlet apertures, suitably sized and positioned to prevent air recirculation, must be provided in the pump house structure. It is recommended that a low level vent be matched by a high level vent in the opposite wall. Exhaust runs should be as short as possible. Small bore pipe and/or excessive length will cause backpressure on the engine, reducing engine performance and therefore pump output. Engine driven fire pumps should not be left unattended whilst undertaking weekly test runs. The run-to-crash design of fire pump engines makes it essential to that they are commissioned by experienced personnel to avoid permanent damage. SPP offers fixed price fire pump commissioning services

Pre-commissioning Check If SPP Pumps Ltd is contracted to carry out the commissioning, the following check list shows items to be completed before the commissioning engineer arrives.

SPP commissioning SERVICES SPP use qualified engineers to maintain approved systems, warranty and approved parts. Contents

PRESSURE (bar) vs HEAD (m of water)

HYDRAULIC DESIGN DATA

Example Find the metres head of water (1.0 s.g.) equivalent of 54.76 bar From bottom two lines:

50.00

bar

= 509.85m

Select â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;4 barâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; line in first column and read along to figure under 0.7 in top line, hence:

4.70

bar

= 47.93m

For 0.06 bar, read under 0.6 top line: hence 6.12m dividing both figures by 10:

0.06

bar

= 0.612m

54.76

bar

= 558.392m

Thus by addition

Note: For liquids with specific gravities differing from 1.0, answer must be divided by actual specific gravity to obtain head in metres of liquid.

Section 11

CALCULATION OF HEAD FOR PUMP SELECTION To fulfill a pumping duty a pump must develop sufficient head and meet the suction conditions. The total head of a system must take into account the difference in liquid levels at inlet and outlet, friction in the pipes, surface pressure (or in some cases vacuum) on inlet and outlet and the velocity of the fluid at discharge. The following diagram and example explains how to calculate the system head taking all these factors into account.

System head = total discharge head total suction head H = hd – hs The total discharge head is made from four separate heads: hd = hsd + hpd + hfd + hvd

• hd = total discharge head • hsd = discharge static head • hpd = discharge surface pressure head • hfd = discharge friction head • hvd = discharge velocity head

Contents

HYDRAULIC DESIGN DATA

The total suction head consists of four separate heads hs = hss + hps - hfs - hvs • hs = total suction head • hss = suction static head • hps = suction surface pressure head • hfs = suction friction head • hvs = suction velocity head Example Calculate the total head of the following pump system. The total friction through suction pipes and fittings is equivalent to 1m head and through delivery pipes and fittings is equivalent to 10m head. The header tank and discharge pipe is open to atmosphere at sea level. The suction velocity head is 0.1m and the discharge velocity head is 0.5m Pumped fluid is cold clean water.

Contents

First we calculate the total delivery head, hsd and hss – from the diagram we can see that the discharge static head is 40m and the suction static head is 5m hpd – 0.014 = meters of liquid specific gravity pressure at sea level is approx. 760mm Hg, specific gravity of cold clean water is 1, so 760 x 0.014/1 = 10.6m millimeters of mercury x

so hpd is 10.6m, the header tank is also open to atmosphere so hps is also 10.6m

hd = hsd + hpd + hfd + hvd

= 40 + 10.6 + 10 + 0.5

= 61.1 m

hs = hss + hps - hfs - hvs

= 5 + 10.6 - 1 - 0.1

= 14.5 m

Total system head H = hd – hs

= 61.1 – 14.5

= 46.6 m Note: Gauge readings need correcting for height of gauge mounting. For this purpose it is important that pressure gauges should be full of liquid. Where a vacuum gauge is used for a suction lift, the gauge pipe should be left empty and correction made from the point of connection, not from the gauge itself.

HYDRAULIC DESIGN DATA

Autoprime Pumping Terms Head “Total Head from all Causes” is the combination of both “Total Suction Head and “Total Discharge Head”. When static heights are kept to a minimum and pipework of the correct size for the pump is used, performance will be maintained and running costs minimised. Suction head will be affected by changes in liquid viscosity and specific gravity and in the vapour pressure resulting from increased liquid temperature.

Net Positive Suction Head (NPSH) NPSHr: minimum liquid head (pressure) required by the pump at the impeller to pump the liquid, this is determined by the pump design. NPSHa: minimum liquid head (pressure) available from the atmosphere to deliver the liquid to the impeller for pumping.

Section 17

NET POSITIVE SUCTION HEAD (NPSH) For a pump to fulfil a particular duty it must first be able to get the required quantity in. For example, a pump may work satisfactorily when installed at a given height above the liquid level on the suction side, but no longer do so if it is placed higher, even though the total head remains unaltered in view of a corresponding reduction in the height of lift on the delivery side. The criteria for this is termed NPSH, which has two aspects, the NPSH the installation and operating conditions provide (NPSH available) and the NPSH needed to get stable flow into the pump impeller (NPSH required). The installation conditions and pump selection must be reconciled so that the NPSH required does not exceed the NPSH available. Fluid not being sensibly cohesive, it cannot be towed. To be made to flow, it must be pressed from behind. There must, therefore, be either an extraneous pressure on the liquid and/or a head of the liquid itself, which is sufficient to cover losses as far as the pump inlet and then overcome pump inlet losses and create the requisite velocity into the impeller vanes. The pressure available behind a liquid for creating movement is the absolute pressure on the liquid free surface, less the liquid’s own pressure to move in the opposite direction, i.e. to evaporate into the spaces above the free surface – this is called vapour pressure. The head available at the pump inlet for getting the flow into the pump impeller is therefore:• Absolute pressure on liquid free surface

• Plus height of liquid free surface above pump impeller

+ hs

• Less liquid vapour pressure

- hv

• Less losses between liquid free surface and pump inlet

- hl

(All expressed in metres head of the liquid).

Contents

Note: +hs becomes negative if the liquid free surface is below the pump impeller. Care must be taken to state NPSH available taking all these factors into account, even though in particular cases the two may equalise each other, e.g. with a liquid at boiling point hv equals Ha and they thus cancel each other out. Otherwise confusion may arise through statement of NPSH, which is plainly inconsistent with the circumstances, e.g. a figure being quoted as NPSH when head over suction hs is meant. The velocity required at inlet to the impeller vanes is a function of flow quantity, area at vane inlets and velocity induced by impeller rotation. Consequently the NPSH required varies with pump type and size, and increases with both capacity and speed. To maintain NPSH required within given limits, the permissible speed reduces approximately as the square root of capacity increases. The increased vapour pressure of warm water often affects suction as indicated by the following table. Negative figures represent minimum requirement of head of liquid above impeller eye.

Note: The above figures are intentionally conservative in order to cover varying suction capabilities of different pumps. Better values may be obtainable especially when the normal capacity of the pump is above the output required, but to allow investigation, full details should be submitted, and the possibility of the temperature being underestimated should not be overlooked.

Section 20

LIQUID VISCOSITY AND ITS EFFECTS ON PUMP PERFORMANCE Viscosity is the property of reluctance of a liquid to flow, i.e. the opposite of fluidity. It involves units of force, length and time and can be expressed as ‘absolute’ in regard to the internal forces in the liquid, or as ‘kinematic’ relating these forces to the liquid specific gravity. The most widely used unit of absolute viscosity is the poise (100 centipoises). However, in all considerations of liquid flow and pump performance the operative factor is the kinematic viscosity, the corresponding unit being the stokes (100 centistokes). stokes (centistokes) =

Poises (centipoises)

specific gravity

Common viscometers (Redwood, Saybold, Engler, etc) give readings having arbitrary relationship to fundamental units. Conversion figures are given in the schedule overleaf. These are approximate only as they may vary slightly with temperature and other factors, and are not universally agreed on, but they are sufficiently accurate for the purposes under consideration. The only values of interest to the pump engineer are kinematic viscosity at actual pumping temperatures. Viscosities are frequently quoted at standard reference temperatures, commonly 100ºF (37.8ºC) or 60ºC (140ºF). If either of these does not correspond with the actual pumping temperature, the viscosity at the latter must be obtained from product data or estimated from general viscosity/temperature curves. The performance of a centrifugal pump when handling a viscous liquid depends not only on the viscosity of the liquid but also its relative size and on whether the pump is of low or high specific speed design. The smaller the required pumping duty, the lower the viscosity for which centrifugal pumps are appropriate. For these reasons it is necessary that all enquiries for pumps to handle viscous liquids should be submitted to the pump maker for individual consideration.

HYDRAULIC DESIGN DATA

In the last column of the schedule, indications have been given of the approximate minimum practical size of centrifugal pump corresponding to each viscosity. In general, for greater viscosities exceeding 25 stokes, pumps of a positive displacement type should be used.

Whole Life Cost

Contents

Section 26

Whole Life Cost Principles and Pump Design Whole life cost can be broken down into a number of key components: • Initial Capital Cost • Operating/Energy Costs • Replacement/Wear Part Costs • Maintenance & Repair Costs • Disposal Costs.

Initial Capital Cost Capital cost is the most visible cost and has historically been the primary selection criterion for most items of capital equipment. Pump users are now becoming increasingly aware of post installation costs and their impact on the total cost of ownership. Lowest capital cost purchases rarely prove economic in the longer term and given that the initial capital cost of a centrifugal pump, inclusive of installation, typically equates to between 5%-20% of whole life cost, placing more emphasis on post installation cost will clearly prove much more economic.

Operating/Energy Costs Energy costs can easily equate to as much as 90% of the whole life cost of a pumping installation, dependant on installed power and equipment utilisation. Analysis of operating costs, in terms of energy consumption, is relatively straightforward, given that pump utilisation and demand profiles are understood and predictable. The wire to water efficiency of existing or proposed installations can be compared and the results projected over the estimated lifetime of the installation. This should be a fundamental component of any tender assessment process or existing asset review procedure. Less visible however, is an installations’ capacity to operate at or near optimum efficiency throughout its operational life. A degree of degradation in hydraulic performance is inevitable with time. This degradation in performance is primarily a result of wear and erosion of internal clearances. Wear rings limit fluid re-circulation between the high and low-pressure Contents

WHOLE LIFE Cost

areas within a centrifugal pump. A combination of erosion from high velocity fluid passing between the wear ring surfaces and mechanical wear, resultant from shaft deflection, widens the clearances allowing an increase in internal re-circulation. Significantly, highlighting the importance of optimum pump selection, this process will be accelerated if the pump operates at a duty point less than 70% or more than 115% of best efficiency flow. The resultant loss of performance usually leads to the pump running for longer periods to deliver a given quantity of fluid. Erosion of hydraulic profiles and increases in the relative roughness of surfaces in contact with the pumped fluid, will also significantly impact on pump performance.

Replacement/Wear Part Costs The replacement of major components within a pump, whether as a result of wear, erosion or following a component failure is often a very significant contributor to whole life costs. A replacement rotating assembly will typically equate to 70% of the costs of a replacement pump. It is not uncommon for all components forming the rotating assembly to require replacement within the lifetime of an installation. The selection of a conservatively engineered pump, manufactured from high-grade materials should negate this, substantially reducing maintenance costs and increasing the mean time between failure and major service outages. Parts supplied by the original pump manufacturers are likely to provide the highest levels of compatibility and will include any reliability modifications that have been developed since the original date of manufacture. SPP’s parts division provides a comprehensive section of spares for SPP and Crane pumps. We can also provide a wide range of re-engineered parts for other manufacturers’ pumps.

Maintenance & Repair Costs The cost of regular monitoring and preventative maintenance is a necessary component of an installations’ whole life cost and historical evidence shows that regular maintenance is a lower cost option than unplanned emergency repairs. When calculating the cost of maintenance, installation downtime and resultant loss of productivity should be considered. Savings associated with increased mean time between failure and service outages will offset any higher initial capital costs incurred when installing a well-engineered pump, designed for ease of maintenance. SPP’s service division can provide a range Contents

of field and service centre based preventative maintenance programmes to support our customersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; production and shut-down schedules. These can vary between simple annual or biannual site based maintenance through to planned pump and valve swap-out programmes to support maximum plant uptime. A well-engineered installation should be so designed as to offer good bearing and seal life and facilitate all but a major overhaul in-situ, without recourse to disturb either pipework or prime movers.

Disposal Costs Disposal costs are relatively minor. Use of higher grade materials may enhance recycling value but this is minimal in the pumps whole life cost and is normally ignored.

Features of a Low Life-cycle Cost Centrifugal Pump The majority of pumps employed on utility type applications fall into one of the following categories: Horizontal Split Casing, Vertical Suspended Bowl or End Suction Pumps. Only the latter are regularly manufactured to recognised international standards e.g. ISO 5199. The requirement for low life-cycle cost pumps is generally applicable to pumps with branch sizes 150mm and above, where power requirements are higher, so it is not usually relevant to the majority of End Suction Pump applications. The following key areas have been identified by pump end users and designers in relation to low life-cycle cost applications.

Mechanical Design A significant change has taken place over the last decade in that the switch from soft packed glands to mechanical seals for shaft sealing on utility applications is near universal. The benefits of this change however have not been fully realised, as mechanical seal life is generally proportional to certain key aspects of pump performance, not least shaft deflection, vibration levels and seal chamber design. The vast majority of utility pumps available today have their design roots in the packed gland era. In many instances this is leading to premature bearing and seal failures, as many pump shafts are quite simply too flexible without the support of numerous packing rings and neck bushes.

This is arguably the most significant factor, influencing the mean time between Contents

WHOLE LIFE Cost

failures of utility pumps. Mechanical seals and bearings are intolerant of shaft deflection and residual unbalance. Therefore it is suggested that a pump designed for low life-cycle cost would have a shorter span between bearings and an increased shaft diameter when compared to a similar pump designed in the packed gland era. Specifically shafts should be so designed, as to limit shaft deflection at the limits of the operating range of say, 50% - 115% of best efficiency flow, to a maximum of 0.05mm at the seal faces. Bearings likewise should be designed to provide a minimum L10 life of 50,000 hours at these limits.

Hydraulic Design With the aid of 3-Dimensional Computational Fluid Dynamics, pump manufacturers are now able to produce hydraulic designs that achieve the theoretical maximum efficiency for a given specific speed or impeller geometry. The challenge is then to consistently replicate these designs in material form. High quality manufacturing techniques and procedures are therefore essential, particularly as pump casings and impellers (the most dimensionally critical components of any centrifugal pump) tend to be produced as castings. Only foundry techniques that ensure a high standard of dimensional accuracy and surface finish should be employed in low life-cycle cost pump production.

Efficiency Degradation The maximum benefit of installing an energy efficient machine will only be realised if performance levels can be maintained for long periods of time between overhauls. Performance degradation is inevitable, however a combination of good hydraulic and mechanical design can have a positive impact in this area and prolong optimum efficiency for much longer periods of time. Hydraulic design considerations are: â&#x20AC;˘ Maintenance of optimum clearances between the impeller outside diameter and the volute cut-water, which will avoid vane pass cavitation. â&#x20AC;˘ Optimisation of impeller geometry with satisfactory suction specific speed values, this will limit internal re-circulation and facilitate a wide band of operation (30%-115% of best efficiency flow). Contents

• Application of internal hydrophobic coating (low electronic affinity) in order to reduce the relative surface roughness value of the pump casing; thus maintaining the relative surface roughness values at a more constant level, unlike that of a bare metal casing, which will oxidise once put into service immediately impacting on hydraulic performance.

Mechanical design considerations • Minimisation of shaft deflection will ensure no contact between impeller eye ring and sealing/wear rings surfaces, thus maintaining ‘as new’ clearances for longer periods. • Often overlooked but highly important is wear ring design. A labyrinth profile will help to provide a staged pressure drop across the wear ring, rather than simply allowing high velocity fluid to flow across wear ring faces rapidly eroding internal clearances. • High-grade materials of construction for the pump impeller with good erosion/corrosion properties will ensure that the relative roughness of hydraulic surfaces remain reasonably smooth throughout.

Packaging the Pumpset When packaging a low life-cycle cost pump with a suitable prime mover, it is important to ensure that the same fundamental design principles be applied to the prime mover, baseplate/mounting assembly. The benefits of a superior hydraulic design and first class component quality can easily be forfeited by coupling the highly efficient pump to a lower efficiency driver. Likewise bearing and seal design lives will not be realised if the pump and driver are connected via a flexible and inadequate baseplate or mounting frame. The mounting arrangement as well as being rigid should facilitate a high degree of in-situ maintenance. Mechanical seals and bearings should be accessible without recourse to disturb either driver alignment of connecting pipework. This dictates the use of spacer type couplings, if drive end bearings and seals are to be maintainable in-situ. Only through the application of all these design and packaging principles will the true benefits of Low Life-cycle Cost pumping be realised by the end user. Contents

Section 27

SPP Energy – Energy Saving Services Pumps are the single largest user of motive power in both industrial and commercial applications in the UK, accounting for over 30% of total power consumption within these sectors. Pumps account for approximately 13% of the UK’s total annual electrical consumption (BPMA Data) and energy consumption during operation has been identified as the most significant impact of pumps on the environment. In recent years, energy costs have become volatile with Oil, Gas and Coal prices at record levels. With this in mind, SPP has identified the need to operate pump systems more efficiently, and can realistically offer reductions in energy consumption and running costs by 30 to 50%.

Saving Costs, Saving Energy, Saving the Environment It is estimated that over 11 million motors with a total capacity of 90 GW are installed in UK industry – which represents about 40% of the UK’s total electricity consumption. With pumps contributing nearly a third of this consumption, there is considerable scope to reduce carbon emissions by improving pump system efficiency. SPP Energy Division promotes the benefits of auditing complete pump systems and producing recommendations to minimise the energy consumption of pumps and their associated systems. SPP Energy Division can also if required supply many of the solutions capable of realising these savings coupled with ongoing monitoring to validate such savings and sustain them through the lifetime of the installation.

ENERGY

Savings through innovation Through the use of proven systems and techniques, SPP Energy offers a complete energy saving solution for pumping systems that can be applied equally to new projects and existing installations. It is clear that pump systems are heavy users of energy, especially large pumps that run continuously. Such pumps are generally oversized and operating far from their best efficiency points. They can suffer from poor pump intake conditions and inefficient running regimes - all wasting considerable amounts of energy. In order to save costs SPP Energy Division will undertake site audits focused on complete pump systems, ultimately producing a detailed report making recommendations for corrective action and clearly showing cost savings, kW/Hr savings, payback time and CO2 reduction.
