How to Size Pumps and Motors to Obtain Energy Savings – Stuttgart
About the Course
A common issue in pumping systems is efficiency and reliability. Why? Because pump system efficiency is highly influenced by the system they are supplying. To insure optimum reliability and efficiency one must focus on the entire system.
The major issue in pump system design is design margin. How does one identify design margin and what are the ramifications of incorrect margin? If a system is optimized, won’t it have less design margin? Consider this, design margin comes from one of two sources, intentional margin, this is margin that is specifically included in the design requirements this margin is quantifiable. The other source is unintentional margin, which is derived from imperfect design methods and is not quantifiable. The purpose of optimization is to reduce the unintentional margin to zero.
Lunch Included
Major reasons pumps are oversized:
- To provide margin for design error and pump or equipment deterioration
- To provide surge capacity
- To provide margin for process upsets / errors
- Because processes change over time, or there is no system standard
- The engineer must balance the benefit and cost of over-sizing a pump
