INTRODUCTION

Piping system


Within industry, piping is a system of pipes used to convey fluids (liquids and gases) from one location to another. The engineering discipline of piping design studies the efficient transport of fluid.

Industrial process piping (and accompanying in-line components) can be manufactured from wood, fiberglass, glass, steel, aluminium, plastic, copper, and concrete. The in-line components, known as fittings, valves, and other devices, typically sense and control the pressure, flow rate and temperature of the transmitted fluid, and usually are included in the field of Piping Design (or Piping Engineering). Piping systems are documented in piping and instrumentation diagrams (P&IDs). If necessary, pipes can be cleaned by the tube cleaning process. (Wikipedia)

PARALLEL AND SERIES PIPES

Series pipes

If a pipeline is made up of lengths of different diameters, conditions must satisfy the continuity and energy equations namely. The flow rate is the same in each pipes and the total head loss is the sum of the head losses in the individual pipes. This is the natural consequence of the conservation of mass principle for steady incompressible flow.

But since all the Qs are equal, this becomes



Parallel pipes
The head loss is same in each part and the total flow rate is the sum of the flow rate in individual part.

PIPING SYSTEMS WITH PUMPS AND TURBINES

When a piping system involves a pump, the steady-flow energy equation on a unit-mass basis is expressed as


In terms of heads as


Where hpump = wpump,u/g is the useful pump head delivered to the fluid,hturbine,e wturbine,e/g is the turbine head extracted from the fluid , a is the kinetic energy correction factor whose value is about 1.05 for most (turbulent) flows encountered in practice , and hL is the total head loss in the piping (including the minor losses if they are significant) between points 1 and 2.

         i.            The pump head is zero if the piping system does not involve a pump
       ii.            The turbine head is zero if the system does not involve a turbine
      iii.            Both are zero if the system does not involve any mechanical work-producing or work-consuming devices
Energy equation is solved for the required useful pump head,
hpump,u = (z2 – z1) + hL
Once the useful pump head is known,the mechanical power that needs to be delivered by the pump to the fluid and the electrical power consumed by the motor of the pump for a specified flow rate are determined from 


 and



where  is the efficiency of the pump-motor combination  which is the product of the pump and the motor efficiency .                                   





(figure 8-48)

·         pump - motor effciency = the ratio of the net mechanical energy delivered to the fluid by the pump to the electric energy consumed by the motor of the pump
·         Typically ranges between 50 and 85 percent (%)


Head loss of piping system ↑ (usually quadratically) with the flow rate. A plot required useful pump head 
   as a function of flow rate is called the system (or demand) curve

  • The head produced by a pump is not a constant.
  • Pump head and pump efficiency vary with the flow rate.
  •  Pump manufactures supply the variation in tabular or graphical form


(figure 8-49)


These experimentally determined  curves are called characteristic (or supply or performance ) curve

              ·         The flow rate of a pump ↑ as the required head ↓
                    ·         The intersection point of the pump head curve with the vertical axis = maximum head (called the shutoff head)
                    ·         The intersection point with the horizontal axis=maximum flow rate (called the free delivery)

The efficiency of a pump is highest at a certain combination of head and flow rate. Therefore, a pump that can supply the required head and flow rate is not necessarily a good choice for a piping system unless the efficiency of the pump at those conditions is sufficiently high. The pump will operate at the point where the system  curve and the characteristic curve intersect. This point of intersection is called operating point
