Description
In practice, several pumps are often installed either in parallel or in series configuration for economic reasons. In in parallel configuration the pumps operate in a common pipe. This requires that the pumps used in each case can achieve the same head. Parallel configurations offer the advantage that when demand is low only one pump works and other pumps are switched on as the flow rate increases. In series configuration pumps with equal flow rates are arranged in a row. This arrangement allows the bridging of large heads and is often more cost-effective than the use of a single pump with large head.
The trainer studies the cooperation of two centrifugal pumps and illustrates the differences in parallel and series configuration. The metrology components used are common in industry and therefore closely related to practice.
