IDP Form 75045 ii CPVMHACACH CAMERON HYDRAULIC] DATA Preface to the Eighteenth Edition (2nd Printing) The Cameron Hydraulic Data Book is an Ingersoll-Dresser Pumps publication and, as in the previous seventeen editions, is published as an aid to engineers involved with the selection “i application of pumping equipment. The eighteenth edition includes a Pump Selection Guide (Section 11) which matches the comprehensive worldwide product line of Ingersoll-Dresser Pumps with a sampling of major markets served. This selection matrix helps the user determine which pump types are generally applied to various fluid pumping applications, In addition, improvements were made in the seamless wrought steel pipe section (pages 7-8 through 7- 12) to address allowable working pressures up to 650° F in accordance with ANSI/ASME Standards B36.10M and B81.1. nor modifications, corrections and clarifications initiated by users and the editor were made throughout the book. | To facilitate locating the desired data, a detailed index is provided in the rear of this book (Section 10). It should be noted that for convenient reference this index is arranged in two (2) patts; first a General Index with items listed alphabetically, page 10-2 througl| 10-10, and secondly, an Index of Liquids arranged alphabetically, page 10-1/1 through page 10-14. Frequent reference to this index is suggested for quickly locating the information desired. | iii DISCLAIMER This publication is designed to provide a compilation of technical data and information from various sources.

(Page 1-53) Liquids Hydraulics is concerned with the beha motion. A liquid has a definite volume a: ior of liquids at rest and in contrasted to a gas which will expand or contract depending on changes in temperature and pressure. Liquids are said to be “practically” inc most considerations at low pressures but) temperatures vary, there will be changes taken into account. The pressure existing at any point in the atmospheric pressure exerted on the’ mpressible. This is true for at higher pressures and as in density which must be liquid at rest is caused by surface, plus the weight of liquid above the point in question. Such pressure is equal in all directions and acts perpendicularly to any liquid. All liquid pressures can be visualized surfaces in contact with the being caused by a column s of liquid which due to its weight would pide a pressure equivalent to the pressure at the point in question. $ or imaginary, is called the “pressure head usually expressed in feet of liquid. ach a column of liquid, real .” or the “static head” and is The flow of liquids may be caused bi means using one of the many types of depending on the characteristics of the | conditions. | gravity or by mechanical mps that may be available d and the nature of service 1-3 i2 Ingersoll-Dresser Pumps. Cameron Hydraulic Data Fig. No. 1 Discharge Impetier Volute. Casing BPAPPr ov 0% Reference is made to Figure 1 illustrating diagrammatically a sim- ple centrifugal pump; here it will bé observed that in its simplest form a centrifugal pimp consists of an impeller rotating within a casing. Liquid directed into’ the center of the rotating impeller is picked up by the impeller vanes and accelerated to a high velocity by the rotation of the impeller and discharged by centrifugal force into the casing and out the discharge. When the liquid in the impeller is forced away from the center of the impeller a reduced pressure is produced and‘ consequently more liquid flows forward. Therefore a steady flow through the impeller is produced unless something hap- pens to break the vacuum at the inlet or disrupt the flow to the center of the impeller or unless the flow at the discharge is restricted by a pressure greater than the pressure head developed by the rotat- ing impeller. Je oe POEAPAOAROAPAVATIM Reciprocating Positive Displacement Pumps, on the other hand, do not generate head. Instead, these pumps convert rotating motion and torque into linear motion and force, generating variable flow at the discharge connection. Head is generated by the system's resis- tance to flow. Hence, this pump will draw upon available power and energy until it overcomes all flow resistances downstream. If exces- sive flow restrictions exist, the pump can be over pressurized and the driver may stall or the weakest link in the system can fail. Therefore, 3 it is imperative that.a safety relief valve is installed as close to the pump as possible. shaker erga cern tn erage Liquid flow During passage through a pipe the flow of a liquid is said to be laminar (viscous) or turbulent depending on the liquid velocity, pipe size and liquid viscosity. For any given liquid and pipe size these 14 ee a As: n
