Vertical Turbine Pump Pdf

Introduction:

Vertical Turbine Pump is a type of roto dynamics pump that used radial or modified radial flow IMPELLERS are vertical configuration.

Vertical Turbine Pump are multistage pump with several levels of IMPELLERS incased in a bowl assembly and can be futher classified as deep well or short set pumps.

Essential Data Required for Making a Selection

• depth of well,

• inside diameter of well casing,

• dimensions of well pit (if any),

• depth to static water level at the required capacity,

• required capacity of the pump,

• discharge curve of the well,

• information about the seasonal fluctuation in the water

table,

• preference for oil or water-lubricated pump design,

• available source of power and its statistics, mode as:

a) electricity -voltage, phase and cycle,

b) stationary engine : diesel / petrol,

c) belt pulley size and speed,

• quality of water to be pumped, and

• condition and alignment of the well bore
