And the data type of fluid is necessary in determining the selection of the pump. This is because each has a specific gravity of liquid different to be directly related to the power requirements of the first mover. In addition to the above we also have to determine the appropriate material from the pump to the fluid being pumped, especially for liquids which are corrosive.
Pumped fluid also has a different viscosity that will affect the pump curve. The higher the viscosity of a fluid (liquid viscous / viscous liquid it will result in:
- The capacity of the pump decreases
- Total pump head decreases
- The efficiency of the pump decreases
- Power is in need rises
