Accordingly, at flow rate of 24 msfh the motor power is 37 EW. Fluctuations in volume and pressure must be expected inthe plant and consequently fluctuations of the operating point, that causes variation ofthe power consumption P of the pump. This isthe reason why in principle an increased factor of 5% is fixed ‘The result is that the motor size should beat last to 4 KW (the required 3.7 KW plus increa sed safety), The next larger sized standard motor has 4 kW an should therefore be selected pl tea 4) Fig. ‘The power consumption of a pump can also be calculated using the formula = 2XQKH recy and using the diagrams, the missing parameters for the optimal pump design are ‘made available. ‘The required flow rate of 24 mYfh and the specified flow head of 33 m require the use of the pamp TP 2030 with an impeller diameter x60 mm and 4 kW motor capacity at .900 rpm and 50 Hz. ‘The efficiency of this pump is about 57 % and the NPSH of the pump (19 m) doe exceed the NPSH of the plant (9.4 m > 19 + 0.5 m) s0 that cavitation does not accu, Accordingly, the pump is suitable for the application ia question,
