superb explanation till now I have searched more than 15 websites, 10 youtube channels, unacademy, McCabe smith and cengel also. But your explanation made the concept clear
why have you added v2/2g with the NPSH last formula after explaining it's justthe difference between suction pressure head and vapour pressure head. Didn't get you there. kindly respond
Cavitation does not occur due to liquid to vapor formation. It happenes when pressure increases again and vapor again try to be in liquid phase. These liquid collapse and implode into the metal surface and cause the erode to the metal surface.
Hi Sir, could you explain the NPSH for Vertical Suspended Pumps (VS4/ VS5). NPSHA calculation and checking the vendor datasheet/GA from customer point of view.
I think the velocity head term in the final equation can be omitted because NPSH is determined, like you say, by the condition that point 2 is at vapor pressure so cavitation is about to occur. If cavitation is happening, v2 goes to 0.
Please can you explain with real life example means I have a pump delivering fluid at some rate. I want to understand how can we say that the pump is under cavitation or not. request to respond
vapor pressure at any given temperature is defined as the pressure exerted by the vapour in equilibrium with the liquid at that temperature ....then how it becomes the pressure at which liquid convert to water vapour..
you cannot relocate pump when it is already installed. you can increase liquid level to increase NPSHa to avoid cavitation. when you are designing a pump for new plant then you have a choice to relocate pump to increase inlet head.
Your explanation is incorrect. NPSH is defined as the Absolute STAGNATION Pressure head at the pump suction minus the absolute vapor pressure head. You are all over the place but it appears you are making the (unfortunate) common mistake of defining it as the absolute STATIC pressure head at the pump suction minus the absolute vapor pressure head. It is wrong in Mark's handbook (at least my edition) if that was your reference. I recommend going to the Pump's Handbook or any good undergraduate text for a correct understanding of NPSH. You can also call a pump manufacturer, they love to discuss this stuff.
