Description
The study of how a single pump works is available through the following coursework and laboratory experiments:
    • Study and production of the centrifugal pump characteristic curve.
      •  Head-flow  (H-Q).
    • Modification of the operation point by varying the settings of the pump installation.
      • Adjusting the discharge valve.
The pump is equipped with a transparent volute to provide a clear view of the whole operation process.
Learning Objectives
The equipment allows the following exercises to be conducted:
    • Obtaining and analyzing the characteristic curve of a pump.
    • Study of the required NPSH of a pump.
