Pump cfd

Background

A customer had a BB3 pump problem that caused the machine to be unreliable and deficient in performance.

The pump head was low, the power consumed was high and the pump suffered high vibration. 

New Pump Design

PumpXP used unique in-house design programs, streamline analysis and advanced CFD analytics to identify the serious design flaws within the existing machine and correct these.

The newly supplied equipment had new impeller design with improved hydraulic efficiency, optimised blade design for low vibration and a newly designed volute passage to maximise pressure recovery.
