This text explains the basic fluid mechanics and thermodynamics
underlying the design of pumps, fans, compressors and turbines in
an uncomplicated way, with many examples and worked exercises. By
treating the machines as either centrifugal, centripetal or axial
flow devices, it explains the basic principles of each and
clarifies their similarities and differences. The book covers
problems such as cavitation, refers to computer-based exercises
wherever possible and includes information on the current advances
in analysis and performance control.
This book provides a brief but thorough account of the basic
principles of good pump design. The first three chapters present
the basic hydraulic equations, including cavitation, and discuss
the principles that underlie the correct performance of the
impeller and casing of centrifugal pumps and the blading of axial
machines. The fourth chapter outlines analytical methods for flow
calculations, including special techniques used in computer aided
design. The following two chapters work through two examples: the
impeller and casing of a simple volute type centrifugal pump; and
an axial flow pump impeller. Shafts, bearings, seals and drives are
discussed in a separate chapter. The last two chapters deal with
design for difficult fluids, and codes and practices.
