Effective Pump Intake Design and Troubleshooting Problem Intakes: 4-Part Recorded Webinar Series

Effective Pump Intake Design and Troubleshooting Program Intakes

4-Part Recorded Webinar Series

Overview

This webinar series is based on the Hydraulic Institute’s Intake Design for Rotodynamic Pumps ANSI/HI 9.8 Standard. The standard enables designers, owners, and users to configure functional pumping facility designs and provides remedial measures for problem intakes. This webinar series visually aids the standard’s overview of design objectives, required inlet bell design diameter, submergence requirements, using the standard for proper instructions on intake structures for clear liquids and solids-handling pumps, highlights of key technologies used when designing the pump intake including physical and computation fluid dynamics (CFD).

Webinar content covers the following:

Session 1: Intake Background, History, and Design Objectives

Session 2: Intakes for Clear Liquids

Session 3: Intakes of Solids-Bearing Liquids

Session 4: CFD Modeling and Physical Modeling
