When a pump is pumping water from a level that is below the pump it is called suction head. If the water to be pumped is at a level above the pump, it is positive head. The pump maybe pumping from the base of a tank to a higher level such as an elevated tank or it may be pulling water from a tank that is below the pump. The distance from the center of the pump to the top of the water level would be the foot of head. It takes 2.31 feet to make 1 P.S.I. So if it is 10 feet from the center line of the pump to the water level, you would have about 4.33 P.S.I. of head.

What is the negative suction head of the pump?
it occurs when surface of water is below the level of pumping unit
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.
What is meaning of head of pump?
it is the max vertical height upto which pump can supply the water.
What is the colour code for Grey water pump discharge pipe?
Blue
Formula of motor shaft power for pumps?
Power available at shaft of pump Ps = p x g x Q x h where, p=density of fluid g= gravitational acceleration Q= discharge of fluid in m3/sec h= differential head of pump
What is Static Discharge Head?
Static discharge head refers to the pressure at the pump discharge outlet, which is created by the pump's rotation and used to overcome the system's resistance to flow. It is a critical parameter in pump performance calculations and determines the pump's ability to push water through the system. Static discharge head is influenced by factors such as pump design, speed, and the system's piping configuration.
What is negative suction in pump?
Negative Suction Head means the pump is drawing liquid up from below its centerline. The distance between the centerline of the pump and the surface of the fluid is measured in head feet, this can be negative (below the pump) or positive (above the pump).

Relation between power and discharge of a reciprocating pump?
The power required by a reciprocating pump is directly proportional to the discharge it produces. When the discharge increases, the power needed to maintain that flow rate also increases. This relationship is governed by the pump efficiency and the pressure head against which the pump is operating.
What do you mean by head of pump?
Total pump head is the sum of suction and discharge pressure in mtr. ie. 1 bar =10.33 metres of water column
How many gallons of water will discharge 2hp water pump at 6meter head?
Each pump is different, but you should get somewhere about 6000 gph
Why reciprocating pump is called positive displacement pump?
because they deliver a fixed quantity of the discharge irrespective of their rpm
What is the discharge of 10 hp pump?
The discharge of a 10 horsepower (hp) pump depends on several factors, including its efficiency, the specific pump design, and the system's head (the height to which the pump must lift the fluid). Generally, a 10 hp pump can produce a flow rate ranging from approximately 30 to 100 gallons per minute (GPM) or more, depending on these variables. To determine the exact discharge, you would need to refer to the manufacturer's specifications for that specific pump model.
What is the negative suction head of the pump?
it occurs when surface of water is below the level of pumping unit
Why is the suction line of a pump larger than the discharge line?
It is common practice to specify the pump suction line one size larger than the pump discharge line in order to increase the Net Positive Suction Head available (NPSHA) to the pump. A smaller suction line the same pipe size as the discharge line would result in more pressure drop in the suction line and reduce the amount of head available to the suction side of the pump. This in turn would result in an operating point closer to cavitation of the pump.
My period is delayed by ten days i did urine test but the result is negative-what's going on?
i am 10 delayed and still negative result. i have head ache and some unclear discharge... i am pregnant
