Pump Power Simulation




Learning Objective 

 

> How to simulate a pump unit in Aspen HYSYS to find 

out actual power required to pump the fluid.

 >Pump increases the pressure of inlet liquid stream.

>In HYSYS, Pump operation can calculate power required for pumping,unknown  pressure or pump efficiency depending othe information provided.

 Problem statement A centrifugal pump was used to supply the cooling water

 to a plant for heat exchange purpose. The water flow rate was 1000 kg/hr and inlet pressure and temperature was 100 Kpa and 25 C respectively. Pump deliver water at a pressure of 1000 Kpa. A sume pump operates at 70 % adiabatic efficiency.

 

How much power would be required to pump this fluid?
