    machinery problem. We intend to do a project on “Vibration analysis of centrifugal pump at BPCL Kochi Refinery”. The vibration analysis we have done is a part of predictive maintenance on rotary equipments. This technique is mainly used for the improved performance of equipments. Using this we can predict the condition of internal parts of the equipment. We are mainly dealing with the vibration analysis of centrifugal pump‚ compressors and motors. It includes typical causes of vibration like misalignment

    CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS Introduction A centrifugal pump is a rotodynamic pump that uses a rotating impeller to create flow by the addition of energy to a fluid. Centrifugal pumps are commonly used to move liquids through piping. The fluid enters the pump impeller along or near to the rotating axis and is accelerated by the impeller‚ flowing radially outward into a diffuser or volute chamber (casing)‚ from where it exits into the downstream piping. Centrifugal pumps are used for

    Submersible Pump Application The system consists of a submersible pump controlled by a Danfoss VLT AQUA Drive and a pressure transmitter. The transmitter gives a 4-20 mA feedback signal to the VLT AQUA Drive‚ which keeps a constant pressure by controlling the speed of the pump. To design a drive for a submersible pump application‚ there are a few important issues to take into consideration. Therefore the drive used must be chosen according to motor current. 1. The motor is a so called “Can motor”

    consider a multiple pump system to meet the design requirements. Two typical options include parallel and series configurations of pumps. Specific performance criteria must be met when considering these options. Given a piping system which has a known design flow rate and head requirements‚ Qdes‚ hdes‚ the following pump selection criteria apply. Pumps in Parallel: Assuming that the pumps are identical‚ each pump must provide the following: Q(pump) = 0.5 Qdes h(pump) = hdes Pumps in Series: Assuming
