Assumptions:
A flow rate of 150m3/h and 25m of discharge head.
Estimated height between pump inlet and outlet is 2.5.
Available distance to lower the pumps is 1.5m.
z
Oversized - Cavitation.
Trimming of impellers - One pump 140mm, two pumps 182mm.
Reduction in efficiency.
Net Positive Suction Head - NPSHa must be larger than NPSHr.
Too many pumps in use - Only two pumps are necessary.
