Reciprocating Pump: Theory, Design and Use - Tapa dura

Reseña del editor

The most complete collection of technical and practical information on reciprocating pumps ever assembled. Discussing pump theory, design, and use maintenance, the practical aspects of reciprocating pumps are combined with theory to provide a convincing explanation of previous mysterious and misunderstood parameters, including liquid acceleration, acoustics, and NPSH. Slurry pumping is discussed in detail, especially regarding the relatively new industry of transporting solids in the form of a liquid. Subjects covered include pump types, dynamics, net positive, suction head, pulsation, surge control and more. Many tables and charts enhance the utility of the book, and while the subject matter is broad and comprehensive, the language is clear enough to be understood by the engineer and maintenance man alike.
