Design and Testing of a Small Feedwater Pump.

Abstract

This memo records the design and testing of a small positive displacement feedwater pump required in connection with experiments on steam atomisation. The pump is of four cylinder radial type direct coupled to a variable speed drive. The design flow rate of 20 litres per hour at 1400 kPa was satisfactorily achieved with minimal pulsing. (Author)
