Where is suction and discharge s?
Answer: The terms suction and discharge are the terms refer to hydraulics. In hydraulics if the the liquid has to be lifted or pumped to the usage area the hydraulic pump will be used . This pump will have to functions that is first suction to lift the fluid and the discharge or delivery . The familiar words in pair are lift and discharge; suction and discharge. The specification of pump for these terms are suction head and discharge head.AnswerThe suction pressure refers to the pressure of the referigerant being "sucked" back into the compressor. The suction pressure is a critical variable in ensuring the accuracy of the refrigerant charge, along with the tepmerature of that line as well. The "superheat", or heat added to the vapor in that line can be monitored in this manner.You have not mention which suction pressure... Actually Where ever the suction is presented that pressure is called suction pressure.... and suction pressure in practical cases normally always less that atmospheric pressure and in case of delivery pressure it is oppositeSaying that suction pressure is " the pressure of the referigerant being "sucked" back into the compressor " is not accurate.Simply , the suction pressure of a pump is the absolute pressure of a fluid , measured at the inlet of the pump ( in your answer , the pump is the compressor , and the fluid is whatever refrigerant. )The discharge pressure , is the absolute pressure of the liquid measured at the outlet of the pump.Obviously, the discharge pressure is usually bigger than suction pressure.
What is the difference between elevator lift and crane lift?
The way they lift the load.
Why are hydraulic lift tables better then normal lift tables?
Hydraulic Lift Tables Can Lift a Lot More Weight Than Regular Lift Tables. Also Hydraulic Lift Tables Are Much Safer Since the Fluid Provides Extra Rigidity to the Lifting Structure Versus Purely Mechanical Means.
Suction head limit in centrifugal water pump?
Typically, 0.3 psi below atmospheric pressure. No pump can pull more pressure than what is available in the atmosphere, because the number of molecules available for movement is so low.
How do you design a scissor lift?
The first scissor lift was designed by John W. Parker. A genius.
How much suction is needed to lift 16 pounds?
16 lbs.
What is the difference between suction lift and suction head?
Suction lift is only negative. Suction head is positive or negative.Suction head is the distance between the surface of the liquid being pumped and the centerline of the pump. It can be positive or negative, and it can be affected by pressure or vacuum on the surface of the fluid. A negative suction head is also called suction lift.Example 1: A D/A under 15 psig is set 20 feet above the feed pump the effective suction head is 54 feet. (15 psig is equivalent to 34 feet of water).Example 2: A Condenser hotwell under 28 inches of vacuum (Hg) is set 16 feet above the suction of a propeller pump. The effective suction head (lift) is -15 feet.* (28"Hg = - 31 feet of water)Example 3: A sump pump is set 4 feet below the surface of the well. The effective suction head is 4 feet.*Note: Suction lift is only effective to a maximum of 21 feet, and 15 feet for hot water depending on temperature and pump slip.
What do the terms max lift and max head mean when referring to centrifical pumps?
These terms refer to water usually. Max lift is the amount of suction measured by how many feet it will elevate water by suction. Max head is how high it will push water.
What is vapour binding?
when pressure on the suction side of the pump drop below the vapour pressure of the liquid, vapour forms. It's caused because of insufficient suction head, high suction lift, excessive friction head, or high liquid temperature.
I have two side skimmers and a bottom drain i can't seem to get the correct suction to use on my vacuum hose?
lift out the skimmer basket there should be a floating diverter with a flap that closes off suction. some skimmer baskets are rotated to do the same thing. insert your hose into the other skimmer. turn off suction to the main drain if you need more suction.

How much weight should a vacuum cleaner lift?
First answer: 5 pounds Second answer: The suction is the maximum pressure difference that the pump can create. For example, a typical domestic model has a suction of about negative 20 kPa. This means that it can lower the pressure inside the hose from normal atmospheric pressure (about 100 kPa) by 20 kPa. The higher the suction rating, the more powerful the cleaner. One inch of water is equivalent to about 249 Pa; hence, the typical suction is 80 inches (2,000 mm) of water. This translates to 2.89 psi.
What are the components of a jet pump?
There are different kinds of jet pumps but some of the main components are motor, discharge, jet assembly, lift, suction, nozzle, control value, impeller, and venturi.
What is the maximum suction lift of a solid column of water?
I must assume you mean uniterrupted column of water! The maximum suction lift of a column of water is the height of a column of water (inside a vertical pipe for instance) that can be supported by atmospheric pressure i.e. approx 14.69psi or 760mm Mercury. You should be aware that suction does not cause water to lift. Suction produced by various kinds of pump merely removes air from above the column of water and this allows atmospheric pressure to act upon the base of the water column. The water column is therefore pushed upwards by atmospheric pressure from below rather than pulled up by suction from above. The density, vapour pressure and surface tension of water vary slightly with temperature and atmospheric pressure also varies slightly with weather conditions. Thus the measured height of the water column may vary slightly according to the conditions prevailing when making the measurement. A good approximation at room temperature is 33 feet or 10 metres.

How does an aeroplane create lift?
In an aircraft, the powerplant provides thrust. And this thrust, combined with the lift provided by the wing's design, air has to move more quickly over the top of the wing (AIRFOIL) than the air underneath the wing. Faster moving air has less pressure than slower moving air, Bernelle's Principal, so suction on the upper skin of the airfoil when it moves through the air (by thrust), creates lift.
What does the chem dry carpet cleaning process entail?
The Chem Dry carpet cleaner uses The Natural, a proprietary hot water solution that uses the power of carbonation to lift dirt to the surface where powerful suction tools whisk it away.
How deep will a vacuum pump water from?
i believe the question should be stated as "How high can a pump pull liquid when mounted above the liquid source". an old pump adage is that a pump doesn't suck. sounds dumb, but it refers to the necessity of having a positive pressure at the suction of the pump greater than the required net positive pressure req'd by the pump. NPSHa must be greater than NPSHr. in any system open to atmosphere the surface of the fluid will have 14.7psi (at sea level) X 2.31 ft/psi, or roughly 34' of head, or NPSHa, available. the manufacturers performance curves will show the NPSHr of the pump at any given flow for a given impeller trim. by subtracting this NPSHr from the calculated surface pressure you can arrive at a general maximum lift that the pump can run at. there will also be line friction losses that will reduce this height, and typically we subtract another 2-3' for a fudge factor as you would not want to run on the ragged edge. so, a pump with an NPSHr of 8' would be able to lift cold water approx 22' before cavitating. getting it primed is another issue, and having said all this, there is a type of centrifugal that can successfully trick this seemingly rigid restriction on lift. the typical home commercial jet pump can lift from many times this limited depth by taking a portion of the high pressure discharge and sending it down a separate pipe and into the suction pipe. this effectively increases the suction pressure and allows this type of pump to lift from quite a depth. a really neat way around having to install a down-hole pump submersible. of course the type of pump, what you are pumping, temperature, vapor pressure, specific gravity, and viscosity will all affect the height that a pump can lift a fluid. If the question is ' at what height we can place the suction side of pump from the water level from where it is pulled up', then if we are not considering the NPSH (which is not practical of course) , then i think that the maximum height of the suction side will be the height which will balance the pressure which is on the water level below from where it is pumped. If the pressure there is atmospheric pressure (at the water level below suction side)then maximum height of water rising is 10.3 m around(will vary according to the fluid being pumped). Above it water will not rise whatever vacuum you create though pump.(Its just like in barometer where mercury doesn't rise above 760mm, although there is vacuum above it in the tube. This is because at base of inverted tube of barometer, pressure is balanced). In practical of course the height is much less of course otherwise cavitation will take place when pressure falls below Vapor pressure of the Liquid being pumped.
