Introduction to Common Pump Terms: Pump Similarity Law

Application of similarity theory of pump

1. When the similar law is applied to the same vane pump running at different speeds, it can be obtained:

• Q1/Q2=n1/n2

• H1/H2=(n1/n2)2

• P1/P2=(n1/n2)3

• NPSH1/NPSH2=(n1/n2)2

Introduction to Common Pump Terms: Pump Similarity Law

Example:

Existing a pump, the model is SLW50-200B, we need change SLW50-200B from 50 Hz to 60 Hz.

(from 2960 rpm to 3552 rpm)

At 50 Hz, the impeller has an outer diameter of 165 mm and a head of 36 m.

H60Hz/H50Hz=(N60Hz/N50Hz)²=(3552/2960)2=(1.2)²=1.44

At 60 Hz, H60Hz = 36x1.44 = 51.84m.

To sum up, the head of this type of pump should reach 52m at 60Hz speed.
