1. Design, calculation and analysis
Design a CENTRIFUGAL PUMP based on Fluids Mechanics II topics based on your
concept and idea. The theory regarding pump can be obtained from Chapter 14 in Fluid
Mechanics Fundamentals and App
Each group should clearly show their design and calculations of the centrifugal
pump using hand sketching and drawing software such as Solidwork or AutoCAD. In
the drawing, the student needs to demonstrate clearly the pump blade angles and its
outer diameter. The student may select any type of blade configuration, assume pump
efficiency (i.e. overall or hydraulic or volumetric). In calculation, the student needs to
show the calculation using the velocity triangle
Example of the pump design could be referred to the Youtube link below:
In the design and calculation, the student may fix one or two parameters (such as H,
Power input, RPM, …) and determine the other parameters based on Fluid Mechanics 2
topics. The specification of the design pump should be clearly written in the table base
included Head, Input Power, Volume flow rate or any other related parameters.
