First, centrifugal pump and water pump:
Centrifugal pumps and water pumps are powerful tools that can move fluids through complex industrial and municipal systems. But you must choose the right equipment for your facility needs. Here, we'll discuss the differences between the two pump types, the fluids they can handle, and some of the most popular applications for each pump.
Second, the difference between centrifugal pump and positive displacement pump:
Fluid transport mechanism
Both centrifugal and positive displacement pumps transport water from the entry point to the exit point with a controlled force and volume of water. However, they use different mechanisms. The pump draws the fluid into the cavity, or displaces the fluid, and then forces the fluid out of the cavity by suction. Centrifugal or aerodynamic pumps have a rotating impeller that draws fluid into the pump and forces it to flow out of the outlet point at a higher speed.
Type of liquid delivered
Each type of pump is best suited for different types of fluids. Pumps can handle highly viscous fluids, and their flow can increase as the fluid thickens. On the other hand, centrifugal pumps cannot handle viscous fluids due to friction losses. In addition, pumps can handle fluids that are shear sensitive - or that change when force, stress, or pressure is applied - while centrifugal pumps cannot; The impeller poses a risk to the fluid. The pump can also handle intermittent dry periods and can be started when there is no liquid to start in the system. Liquid is required in the centrifugal pump unit to activate the pressurization control.
There are several different types of pumps and centrifugal pumps, each using slightly different mechanisms that can handle different loads, but they still use the basic concepts of water and rotational force to cause motion. Before selecting a specific pump type and model, the facility should first determine whether a positive displacement or centrifugal pump is the best choice based on pressure and flow requirements, the type of fluid being delivered, and the required suction.
Three, pump performance comparison:
One of the main differences in performance between positive displacement pumps and centrifugal pumps is flow rate. The pump maintains a constant flow rate even when the pressure changes, but the fluid flowing out of the centrifugal pump is based on the flow rate of the pressure change.
Four, centrifugal pump application scenarios:
Centrifugal pumps are good at pumping thin liquids with low viscosity levels. These include water, dilute oils and fuels, and chemicals. They are the most commonly used pump class for high-volume applications that require high flow rates at low pressure. Some popular apps include:
• Municipal water supply and water supply systems
• Air conditioning and water circulators
• Irrigation
• Petrochemical and light fuel transfer stations
• Fire protection
• Cooling tower
• Boiler feed water
Using vortex impellers, centrifugal pumps can even handle some fluids that contain solids. However, they work best when pumping large, sustained amounts of water.
Five, when to use the pump:
Pumps, on the other hand, perform well in high-pressure and low-flow applications with viscous fluids. These pumps work well in the following applications:
• Municipal sewage system
• Oil processing center
• Manufacturing centers that produce or process thick pulps and other viscous materials
Complex facilities such as food processing plants and other manufacturing facilities benefit from the combination of both pumps. For example, a food processing operation requires a centrifugal pump to add water to the batch, but a pump is needed to control the movement of thicker compounds. Oil processing centers may require pumps to process crude oil, while they can use centrifugal pumps to handle thinner, lighter by-products.
