Viscosity Correction for Centrifugal Pump

04/08/2011 10:19 AM

Hi,

Please tell me how to find the viscosity coefficient at different known viscosities for the centrifugal pump for which I'm having the flow Vs head curve for one particular viscosity.

My objective is to draw curves of flow Vs head at different viscocities

Here are a few. The first one looks like it should be what you want.

Re: Viscosity correction for centrifugal pump

04/09/2011 1:10 AM

sir,

thanks for your reply. But the thing is i could not understand the procedure to use the chart given by HI. Becoz i'm having a performance curve of the pump which run in fuel at a particular viscosity. And my requirement is to draw the curves of the same pump which is running in the same fuel but at higher temperature (known viscosity). But the HI chart is for pump run in water. so before going to use HI chart what are the data i should have about my pump running in fuel? please explain with some example.

A simple phone call to the <...Centrifugal Pump...>'s manufacturer should produce this information.
