NPSHA in the system is calculated as : NPSHA = Terminal Pressure in the vessel (in guage) (+) Static Head of fluid above pump centre line (see note). (+) Atmospheric Pressure (-) Vapour Pressure of liquid at pumping temperature (-) Friction loss in suction piping up to pump centre line consisting of the following : Entrance and exit losses Loss in suction strainer Loss in control valves‚ instruments‚ exchangers etc. if any Line losses Note : a) The height of liquid in the vessel

A silent disease that can strike in the blink of an eye. The disease can be either bacterial or viral. But today‚ I will focus my efforts on a rather known disease called bacterial meningitis. Let me jump right in! Meningitis is inflammation of the meninges caused by a bacteria or virus. It is extremely important to know whether the disease is viral or bacterial‚ because‚ bacterial meningitis is more severe than viral meningitis. Bacterial meningitis can affect all age groups such as newborns‚ infants

Pathophysiology of Disease: (Swelling of tissues produced by an obstruction to the lymph flow in an extremity. Results in excessive accumulation of fluid in the interstitial space.) Lymphedema can be classified as primary (congenital malformations) or secondary (acquired obstruction. Swelling in the extremities occurs due to an excessive increased amount of lymph fluid due to an obstruction of lymphatic system. The obstruction may be in both the lymph nodes and the lymphatic vessels. Eventually this will

Introduction The water system in any pharmaceutical organization is of vital importance. It is widely used in pharmaceuticals and related industries. Water used in process and in cleaning must be pure and free from microbial and chemical impurities. Laboratories need pure water free of foreign substances‚ which could potentially affect the outcome of analyses‚ and the pharmaceutical industry needs pure water for a variety of purposes – everything from cleaning to the use of pure water as an ingredient

occurs in the pipe flow due to viscous effects generated by the surface of the 3mm ID pipe. It is understandable that friction loss is a major loss rather than minor loss including energy lost due to obstructions. Loss of head occurred by the mixing of fluid which occurs at fittings such as bends or valves‚ and also frictional resistance at the pipe wall. Besides‚ the major part of the head loss will be due to the local mixing near the fittings. Figure 1.0 Illustration of Fully Developed Flow along a
