An Experimental Investigation into the Effects of High Viscosity and Foamy Oil Rheology on a Centrifugal Pump Performance

This paper presents the effect of high viscosity oil and two-phase foamy-oil flow on the performance of a single stage centrifugal pump. As a part of this, the applicability of a pipe viscometer to determine the foamy oil viscosity is investigated. Unlike previous studies, a sealed fluid tank is used in a closed flow loop to allow conditioning the two-phase mixture to create foamy-oil. Furtherm...

Determining the optimal size of a ground source heat pump within an air-conditioning system with economic and emission considerations

One of the most challenging issues in modern-day building energy management involves equipping the buildings with more energy efficient facilities. In this paper, a hybrid system for cooling/heating for a residential building is developed and optimized. The system consists of a ground source heat pump (GSHP) as well as an electric chiller (EC) and boiler. The model is implemented in MATLAB ...

Stress analysis of reciprocating pump pipeline system in oil station

The strong vibration of reciprocating pump in oil transportation station pipeline system will seriously affect the safe running of the equipment and pipeline. And the resonance between pipe and equipment will cause more severe damage. Therefore before the formal operation of station, not only static stress analysis, but also modal analysis and vibration analysis are necessary for the reciprocat...

impeller trimming of an industrial centrifugal viscous oil pump

abstract: impeller trimming is a proper way to alter the performance of centrifugal pump with a constant speed so as to meet the demand on the specified flow rate and head in pumping systems. the affinity law accounting for the impeller trimming is the key relation to determine the pump performance with a trimmed impeller. there seems no experimental study dealing with such an affinity law for ...
