Circulation pump flow rate design
Thread Content
It is necessary to design a circulation pump whose function is to mix the material in the storage tank. Since the material in the tank is in suspension and tends to settle, it is not possible to install agitators due to space constraints; therefore, a circulation pump with high flow rate but low head is used as a substitute. How should the flow rate of this circulation pump be determined? Are there any empirical values for the circulation time of such materials?
If the storage tank is too large, air flow agitation can be considered, by blowing in air and nitrogen
