4 TERMINOLOGY

4.1 Vertical Turbine Pump (Water or Oil-Lubricated)

This is a vertical axis centrifugal pumpcomprising stages which accommodate rotatingimpellers and stationary bowls possessingguide vanes. The discharge from the pump unit

is co-axial with the shaft and the pump unit issuspended by the column pipe containing asystem of vertical shafting for transmittingpower to the impellers, the prime-mover beingexternal to the flow stream. A typical verticalline shaft pump consists of three elements asfollows:

a) Bowl Assembly — This is either a single ormulti-stage centrifugal type verticalassembly with discharge co-axial with theshaft. The bowl assembly consists ofrotating impellers, which are housed instationary bowls having guide vanes.

b) Column Assembly — The columnassembly connects the bowl assembly andthe head assembly and conducts waterfrom bowl assembly to head assembly.This comprises column pipe, shaftenclosing tube and shaft assemblies in thecase of oil-lubricated pump, and columnpipe and shaft assemblies only in the caseof water-lubricated pump.The line shaft is supported throughout itslength by means of bearing and may beenclosed in shaft enclosing tube iflubricated with oil external water, or itmay be opened and lubricated with thewater being pumped.

c) Head Assembly — The head assemblyconsists of the base from which thecolumn, shaft assembly and the bowlassembly are suspended, the dischargehead elbow which directs the water intothe delivery piping system.

4.2 Surface Discharge Head AssemblyIn this the discharge elbow is incorporated inthe head assembly so that the delivery may betaken at ground level. Thrust bearing may beprovided to take care of the hydraulic thrustgenerated by the pump in this subassemblyespecially in case of solid shaft motor.

4.3 Underground Discharge Head AssemblyIn this the discharge elbow or tee is separatedfrom the head assem bly so that the delivery m aybe taken at ground level. Thrust bearing m ay beprovided to take care of the hydraulic thrustgenerated by the pum p in this sub-assem blyespecially in case of solid shaft m otor.

4.4 Driver

The driver is the mechanism mounted on thedischarge head assembly which transmits orfurnishes the power to the head shaft. It maycontain the means for impeller adjustment andprovides a bearing to carry the thrust load. Itmay or may not be a prime mover. The types ofdrivers are defined as follows:

a) Hollow Shaft Motor — The vertical hollowshaft motor drive is an electric motorhaving a motor shaft that has been boredon the centre of its axis to receive the headshaft of the pump. Impeller adjustment ismade at the upper end of the motor, and ameans to carry the thrust on a bearingwithin the motor, is provided.

b) Pulley Head — A flat or V-belt drivenmechanism having a shaft that has beenbored on the centre of its axis to receivethe head shaft of the pump. In case ofhollow shaft construction impelleradjustment is made at the top of thepulley head. Pulley head is provided witha bearing to carry the total thrust as wellas a bearing to carry the belt pull.

c) Gear Head — A right angle gear drive is agear mechanism having a shaft that hasbeen bored on the centre of its axis toreceive the head shaft of the pump. Thehorizontal shaft of a gear drive receive itspower from the prime mover and througha pair of bevel gears, transmits it to thehead shaft. Impeller adjustment ispossible at the top of gear head andbearing is provided on the hollow shaft fortaking up and down thrust.

d) Solid Shaft Drive — It is an electric motorhaving conventional solid shaft coupled tothe head shaft of the pump. It shallprovide a means for impeller adjustment.In this case, a thrust bearing shall beprovided either in the discharge head or inthe motor.

e) Combination Drive — This includesmeans for operating the pumps with twoor more drivers.

4.5 Datum

The datum shall be taken as the elevation ofthat surface from which the weight of the pumpis supported. This is normally the elevation ofthe underside of the base plate.4.6 Column Setting

Column setting is the nominal vertical distancein metres from the underside of the dischargehead/base plate to the column pipe connectionwith the bowl assembly.

4.7 Static Water Level

The static water level is the vertical distance inmetre from the datum to the level ofatmospheric surface while no water is beingdrawn from the pool.4.8 Pumping Water Level

Pumping water level is the vertical distance inmetres from the datum to the level of theatmospheric surface while the specified liquidis being drawn from the pool.4.9 Draw-Down

It is the difference in metres between thepumping water level and the static water level.4.10 Capacity of the Pump ( Q )

It is the volume rate of flow ( Q ) expressed inlitre per second (metre cube per hour) deliveredby the pump at the specified speed and head.4.11 Pump Speed ( N )

It is the rate of rotation of the pump shaftexpressed in revolution per minute.4.12 Head
