Some aspects of suction dredge design
Important factors in dredge design are estimation of total head, and determination of flow in and around suction nozzles and in pipe lines; total head for dredge pump is calculated from velocity, static, and friction heads; flow into suction nozzles depends on whether hydraulic jets or mechanical cutters are used, and on nozzle shape; design of pipe lines depends on transportation characteristics of pulp, skin friction, swirl and avoidance of cavitation.
