Suction Design Guide for Reciprocating Plunger Pumps CTPCI ? s Suction Design Guide for Reciprocating Plunger Pumps Suction Design Guide for Reciprocating Plunger Pumps Suction head is the energy of an incompressible uid causing pressure within the piping of a pump Suction head is generally expressed in terms of feet of water or pounds per square inch Head is the weight of uid being expelled from the opening of a feeding source to the suction side of the reciprocating pump To calculate the head of a particular uid use the following calculation h p SG Where h Head feet p Pressure psi SG Speci ?c gravity of the liquid There are two suction head calculations particularly signi ?cant to plunger pump systems ?? Net Positive Suction Head available NPSHa and Net Positive Suction Head required NPSHr Net Positive Suction Head required NPSHr is generally calculated by the original pump manufacturer through experimentation The manufacturer calculates the NPSHr required for the pump to run safely and with optimal e ?ciency without the occurrence of cavitation NPSHr equation NPSHr Ps Pvap Ps Stagnation suction pressure at the pump inlet with the pump running Pvap Vapor pressure of the amount raised by pumping at inlet temperature NPSHr Ps Pvap PSI NPSHr p SG Feet West Hwy Cleburne Texas T - F - www triangle-pump com CTPCI ? s Suction Design Guide for Reciprocating Plunger Pumps Net Positive Suction Head available NPSHa is calculated on the suction side of the pump Generally the NPSHa of a pump is calculated during the design and construction of the pumping system and is used to test the pumping system upon design completion NPSHa Psg PZ Patm Pvel ??
