We are Running Klaus Union SLM AHO 8x6x15-25T10 Centrifugal pumps with variable speed motors on them (Marathon 125hp 1800rpm TEFC). The pumps will be running at 1600GPM each in parallel. If you need any other information let me know.

We are designing a heat transfer fluid piping system with 2 pumps running in parallel and another as a standby. If one of the pumps happens to fail or shut down and we still have fluid pressure going into that pump line, is the pump capable of withstanding the pressure of the fluid when the pump...
Hi,
I recently started a big project on fluidized bed boilers and am new to boiler design and have been doing much research on how it works and every aspect of a boiler in general. I am stuck on where to start with a prototype design. What basis as in do I start doing calculations based off of...
THe oil is DowThermA. The system pressure is roughly 200psi on the discharge and 150 on the suction. All the pump system components are on the ground along with the expansion tank. The tank is not vented but pressurized.
What we did find is the strainer was dirty so we cleaned that out. We...
I believe the "air" that I mentioned earlier might be vapor pressure from the oil being heated up (temperature will get up to 600 degrees F). This does not affect the heat exchanger but the system going into it because the possible vapor pressure is affecting the pump (the pump is specified by...
Hi, I have a problem with a heat exchanger we are currently working on. There is air collecting at the top of our piping system so we installed 3 high pressure valves and turn on the system and let it run then shut it off and find that it is collecting air at the top of the system. Our pump is...
