Effect of Viscosity on Pump Performance

Written on August 1, 2006 at 8:02 pm, by

Many years ago a generalized procedure was developed by the Hydraulic Institute (HI) for correcting centrifugal pump performance when handling viscous fluids. Their procedure was universally accepted by pump manufactures and industry users. HI has recently issued a revised procedure for predicting pump performance based on new research and field test data [1]. The revisedContinue Reading
