ParametersInvolvedInPumpselection:
•When selecting a pump for a particular application, the
following factors must be considered:
1.The nature of the liquid to be pumped(viscosity, density,
suspended solids, corrosive,..etc)
2.The required capacity (volume flow rate)
3.The conditions on the suction (inlet) side of the pump
4.The conditions on the discharge (outlet) side of the pump
5.The total head on the pump (the term from the energy equation)
6.The type of system to which the pump is delivering the fluid.
such as hydraulic systems, heating systems, cooling systems, water distribution systems, or any
other system
7.The type of power source (electric motor, diesel engine, steam
turbine, etc.)
8.Space, weight, and position limitations
9.Environmental conditions
10.Cost of pump purchase and installation
11.Cost of pump operation
