• Preface - Pump Handbook
  ; Application and Construction of Centrifugal Solids Handling Pumps, a companion to the preceding section that clearly presents the slurry pumps used for such transport; and Jet Pump Theory, another classic that treats both single- and two-phase jet pumping. As the reader will see in the heading of each...
• Pump Basics
  . Various requirements may be calculated using these relationships: Hydraulic horsepower required = Pressure x Flow / 1714. Brake horsepower (electric) required = Pressure x Flow / 1457. Gas engine horsepower required = Pressure x Flow / 1100. To learn more basic pump theory, be sure to attend one...

• Theory of Rating
  , is the fixed resistance against. Pressure. T. which a given volume of air must be delivered. It may be consid-. ered the same as the pressure head against which all pumping equip-. ment is rated. For instance, a pump may be selected to raise water. P = The entire pressure. t. to a certain elevation...
• Expanding Detector Tube Measuring Ranges
  , or the number of pump strokes in a given sample. Most Sensidyne/Kitagawa detector tubes have a printed calibration scale that corresponds to one pump stroke or 100cc of air. Often, the range can be doubled in both directions by taking one-half stroke or two strokes and correcting the reading. The general...
