    As someone who has serviced and sold pumps for over a decade, I can safely say that not only did you get all the science and physics of pump design correct, it's also the most informative centrifugal pump video I've ever seen on RUclips or any other platform. Well done!

Realized an axial pump isn't what was most suitable, and a centrifugal pump is... designing 3d printing jet drives designed to be used on a kayak is fun... Untill you need specifics on how a centrifugal pump is actually designed and why

    Been a plumber for a few years and never really got into the specifications of pumps .
    Just installed them on jobs which the pump would have been supplied by our engineer and didn't put much thought into them.
    Swapping to go work for a pump company next week so getting to know pumps and the internals will be a benefit to me now .
    Thanks for the video

    Speaking of the flow direction based on the centrifugal pump's blades curvature, yes, you should tell in which direction the pump will have it's best efficiency for moving your fluid, hence from the eye center towards the blades tips, but it doesn't mean it won't reverse the flow if you rotate the rotor in opposite direction, but cavitation may occur much sooner (at some lower rpm and outlet pressures).

And instead balancing drum system which methods are used to arrest the axial float in the vertical multistage pumps.

    Let me ask you a question. Why do aquarium pump and washer drain pump impellers have straight and not curved impeller blades? Aren't curved shaped blades more efficient?

    • @andyclark4627
      @andyclark4627 5 лет назад

      A straight line impeller requires less machining and is easier therefore cheaper to produce!

    • @LUISSM3
      @LUISSM3 5 лет назад

      Perhaps, but the efficiency obtained in the impeller format allowed to reduce the power required for the same result.
      qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-03033dbb01739d2f400157af07be8d38
      And as they are all made of injected plastic, the machining cost only occurs in the mold. Even the number of blades that is usually only 4 is inefficient. Some even low power pumps get better results with curved blades like this ae01.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1UI_qU3DqK1RjSZSyq6yxEVXav.jpg

    Pumps 101. Awesome. I understand that changing the impeller by just a little controls volume and preassure immensely. Most trash pumps do high volumes with low pressures. Fire pumps do higher pressures with lower volumes. Dredge pumps for small gold dredges are somewhere in the middle. Pump design is tailored specifically for its specific use and hose size.

  • @ddegn
    @ddegn 5 лет назад

    Would a frictionless impeller work? I think it would likely work better than an impeller with high friction.
    I think your explanation at 1:48 is incorrect. Friction isn't required to push the liquid. I think friction actually makes a centrifugal pump less effective.
    This is a small nit pick. I've been enjoying your videos. Thanks for sharing them with us.

    • @LaneyMachineTech
      @LaneyMachineTech  7 лет назад +5

      Hi, Derrick,
      During operation, there will definitely be a pressure differential between the suction and discharge sides of the pump. The amount of pressure on the suction side (before energy has been added to the fluid) will be less than the amount of pressure on the dicharge side (after energy is added to the fluid). The actual amount of discharge pressure is determined by the amount of energy added to the fluid by the impeller (based on impeller speed, impeller diameter and the density of the fluid) and how much of this energy is in the form of pressure. The pressure developed by the pump is actually dictated by the needs of the piping system. Bigger elevation changes from the source reservoir to the destination reservoir and greater lengths of pipe between them demand more pressure from the pump to overcome these obstacles. As for suction pressure, during operation, fluid is discharged from the pump and this creates a zone of low pressure at the center of the impeller. Fluid in the suction piping is pushed into the pump to replace the discharged fluid. This is accomplished through a combination of atmospheric pressure and the weight of any fluid above the pump on the suction side - ie the fluid level of the source reservoir. This is what determines the actual amount of suction pressure. We haven't yet made a video on pumping system hydraulics, but you can be sure that such a video is on the list. The explanation in that video will surely be better and more thorough!

  • @dirkwellnitz3783
    @dirkwellnitz3783 3 года назад

    Thats a very good explanation, but there is one remark I cannot hold back. A centrifugal pump does not create pressure! It creates head and flow. Pressure results from friction and resistance within the discharge piping. Assuming an open discharge nozzle, the pump would not create pressure at all since the fluid would be exposed to ambient pressure (and negligible friction of air). The pump would shoot out a fountain to a specific height thats called head. Anyhow, you should do more of these videos! thumbs up

    one thing about fluid dynamics that most people don't understand is that while the general rule is that velocity and pressure are inversely proportional, there is a "power" part to it. just like with torque and speed, volts and amp, there is a power limit which is the two combined at any given moment. ie. you can have one pump that does 10cfm at 10psi and another pump 10cfm at 1psi. yea you can get the 10cfm @ 1psi to be at 10psi but it'll only be at 1cfm then. Point being is that while yea that is true, it's not as simple as that and you run into limits very quickly.

    Great video, i wish we had more teachers like you in college!

    Hmm the pumps i repair always have a larger suction and smaller discharge to build up pressure, why is that?
