Pumping, Equalization, and Waterhammer
This chapter addresses pumps of various types, pump cavitation, equalization, waterhammer, wet wells, and stormwater pumping station design. System synthesis is discussed along with various types of pumps. Centrifugal pumps include radial (volute centrifugal and diffuser centrifugal), axial flow, and mixed‐flow types. Turbomachine theory and performance test codes for centrifugal pumps are discussed. Positive‐displacement pumps are of the reciprocating and rotary types and include plunger pumps, diaphragm pumps, and progressive cavity pumps. Miscellaneous types of pumps include air‐lift pumps, screw pumps, hydraulic ram pumps, jet pumps, and other classifications. All of these types of pumps are discussed, with the author's applications of each type of pump interwoven into the discussions. The analytical principles of equalization storage are discussed along with methods and an example. Waterhammer is addressed in detail with a detailed example of the cause of damage and means of preventing a future recurrence. Wet wells and stormwater pumping station designs are discussed in detail along with examples.
