Is the determination of the liquid column height on the pump inlet side related to the medium density?
Thread Content
Hello everyone. I haven’t figured out this issue. The pump has a net positive suction head of 6 m, the liquid level is 5.6 m above the pump inlet, the temperature of the medium is 150°C, it’s a salt solution with a density of 1.45. Will cavitation occur?

It depends on the saturated vapor pressure, the liquid level height, as well as the pressure at the liquid surface and the pipeline losses
