ME1106 : Dynamic Pumps

 

This course is designed to provide delegates with a detailed and up-to-date overview on Dynamic Pumps. It covers the fundamental concepts of pumps comprising of head, flow rate efficiency and other key terms; the dynamic pumps and positive displacement pumps; the significance, applications, components and working principle of dynamic pumps; the centrifugal pumps, axial flow pumps, mixed/radial flow pumps and multi-stage pumps; the specific speed of dynamic pumps including pump geometry and performance; the pump performance curve; and the pump operation using operating point and best efficiency point. 

Further, the course will also discuss the system curves and its impact on pump performance; the causes, effects and prevention of cavitation in dynamic pumps; the materials used in dynamic pumps covering cast iron, stainless steel, bronze and their application; the seal and bearing types and maintenance; and the causes, effects, and mitigation techniques of pump vibration and noise. 

During this interactive course, participants will learn the efficient and prolonged pump operation using routine pump maintenance; the advance pump control systems and their benefits; the advantage, disadvantage and use-cases of parallel and series pump operation; the common pump problems and troubleshooting by addressing leaks, inefficiencies and other issues; optimizing energy savings in dynamic pumps, and the future trends in dynamic pump design and operation.
