SERIES& PARALLEL SYSTEM CENTRIFUGAL PUMP DEMONSTRATION

Two motor-driven centrifugal pumps,mounted on a stainless steel plinth with a water reservoir and pipework forcontinuous circulation. The pumps can be configured for single pump operation,two pumps in parallel or two pumps in series by using manually operated ballvalves. Similarly, manual valves are used to control the flow and facilitatethe study of suction effects, including demonstration of air release.

In parallel operation the two pumpsdraw from a shared inlet pipe of a wider diameter than the pump inlet,reflecting a typical industrial configuration of parallel pumping. Each pumphas impellers that can be easily accessed and replaced without tools. This isdelivered with three impellers in total one with forward curved blades and twowith backward curved blades allowing the students to investigate the effects ofimpeller characteristics.

Electronic sensors measure the pumpoutlet pressure of each pump the shared pump inlet pressure the flow rate andthe water temperature.
