What is the relationship between the minimum suction vacuum of a pump and the required cavitation?
When the vacuum pressure is called vaporization pressure, cavitation is more than the surplus energy of vaporization pressure at the unit weight of the liquid in the pump suction port of the unit, with mark. The absorption process is to NPSH delta H: pump suction fluid allows the vacuum pump installation height is the unit of rice.
When the pump is working, the liquid at the inlet of the impeller, due to a certain vacuum pressure will produce steam, the vaporization of the bubble in liquid particles under the impact of movement, the impeller and other metal surface erosion, thereby damaging the impeller and other metal
Suction is allowed to pump the vacuum from the distance from the inlet, which is part of the field installation.The manufacturer of cavitation allowance is closely related to the design and process of pump. Estimation formula: cavitation allowance =10.33 meters - allow suction of -0.5 meters (safety).
