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.
