Important design factors of Pumping Station Arrangement
- Layout of pumps, valves and pipe work,
- Type and number of pumps to be used,
- Arrangement of auxiliary plant such as filters, electrical and control equipment
- Inclusion of surge protection devices,
- Final review of pump and pipe work sizing
The hydraulic design of the pumping system includes the following aspects:
Hydraulic design: Pumps, Valves, Pipelines and system operation
- Calculation of pump head and flow,
- System resistance curve
- NPSH calculations
- Suction pipe design,
- Discharge pipe size
- Rising main to discharge point
- Valves such as isolating valves, non-return valves and control valves
- System design pressures
- Pipeline velocities
- Operational aspects such as pump speed control, valve positions and valve operating times
The pump head will have a static and dynamic component, and these factors will determine the system resistance curve
