Pumps, Fans, Compressors--Turbomachines
• Turbomachines: change energy level of flowing fluid by means of momentum exchange
• 2nd only to electric motors in number• Wide spread in ALL industries
– Power units: cars/trucks, tractors– Computers– Grain elevators– Oilfield– Water supply/treatment– Food processing– And…….

Pumps, Fans, Compressors--Turbomachines
• Differences between pumps, fans, compressors– Pumps: move liquids– Fans: move gases with little increase in
pressure– Compressors: move gases with greater
increase in pressure

Pump example 1
• A pump provides 0.009 m^3/s of water and total head of 10.6 m. Determine the power output of the pump. If the power input is 1310 W, determine the mechanical efficiency of the pump.
• Pump Example 2, English Units– Will be shown in class

Pumps
• Two typesFlow rates Pressure Flow
characteristics
Displacement
- plunger
- piston
- rotary
Low High Pulsating
Dynamic
- centrifugal
- jet
- airlift
High Low Steady Flow

Dr. C. L. JonesBiosystems and Ag. Engineering
Displacement Pumps
• Reciprocating and Piston Pumps– Crank– Connecting rods– Pistons or plungers– Vol. efficiencies > 97%, Mech. eff. approx. 90% – For more stable flow, increase number of
• Centrifugal– Relative simplicity– Mech. eff. as high as 90%– Can handle fluids containing suspended solids– Ease of maintenance…good for food products– 2 parts: impeller and casing– Radial, mixed, axial flow
