Sliding vane pumps offer a versatile processing option for low-viscosity liquids.
viscosity
Learn how centrifugal pumps, positive displacement pumps and three-screw pumps perform in these cases.
Think again if you are pumping thick fluids using water pump performance curves.
Variables that should be considered include fluid viscosity and category type.
Will a system curve look the same for pulp or viscous applications as it does for water?
Avoid a costly mistake by understanding how a fluid’s viscosity can change at various shear rates.
Viscosity will affect positive displacement and rotodynamic pumps differently.
Understand the common impacts on stable flow in a process.
Apply these correction methods for troubleshooting operational issues in existing systems or when designing a new system.
Consider hidden costs and energy efficiency when making the choice.
