Pumps and turbines are fluid machines that either add energy to or extract energy from a fluid. Pumps add energy by doing work on the fluid, while turbines extract energy from the fluid as it does work on the turbine. Specifically, centrifugal pumps have an impeller and casing. The impeller adds energy to the fluid by increasing pressure and velocity as it rotates and throws the fluid outward. The casing then converts the kinetic energy into increased pressure before the fluid exits.
Pump Cavitation & Net Positive Suction HeadHasnaın Sheıkh
This document summarizes key concepts related to pump cavitation and net positive suction head (NPSH). It defines cavitation as the formation of vapor bubbles when local pressure inside a pump drops below the vapor pressure of the liquid. Repeated cavitation can damage impeller blades through pitting and erosion. NPSH is introduced to quantify the pressure required to avoid cavitation. NPSH available considers the inlet pressure accounting for piping losses, while NPSH required is provided by pump manufacturers as the minimum pressure needed. The document outlines how NPSH available and required values vary with flow rate and other variables like liquid temperature.
This document discusses centrifugal pumps. It begins by defining pumps and their purpose of increasing fluid velocity, pressure, or elevation. It then classifies centrifugal pumps and describes their operation of converting motor energy into kinetic and potential energy of fluid flow using a rotating impeller. The key parts of centrifugal pumps are identified as the impeller, casing, suction pump, and discharge pump. The working principle is explained as fluid being accelerated outward by centrifugal force when the impeller rotates. Centrifugal pumps are commonly used for water supply, industry, and domestic applications due to their simplicity, low cost, and efficiency.
There are two basic types of turbines: impulse and reaction turbines. Impulse turbines use nozzles to direct steam onto curved blades, deriving energy from the steam's kinetic energy. Reaction turbines have fixed and moving blades, with the steam's pressure and kinetic energy driving the moving blades. Most steam turbines use a mixture of impulse and reaction stages to maximize efficiency. Turbines are used widely in power plants, ships, aircraft engines and other applications to convert fluid energy into useful rotational work.
Centrifugal pumps are rotodynamic pumps that use a rotating impeller to increase the pressure of a liquid. The impeller spins and throws liquid outward via centrifugal force, increasing pressure. Key parts include the impeller, casing, suction and delivery pipes. Centrifugal pumps are classified based on impeller shape, working head, number of stages, flow direction, and number of suctions. They work by converting the kinetic energy of the liquid into pressure energy. The minimum speed required for startup depends on the manometric head. Cavitation can occur if the pressure drops below vapor pressure, forming bubbles that collapse and damage surfaces.
A steam turbine is a prime mover in which the potential energy of the steam is transformed into kinetic energy and later in its turn is transformed into the mechanical energy of rotation of the turbine shaft
A pump is a mechanical device that transfers rotational energy to liquid to move it from one place to another. There are two main types of pumps: dynamic and positive displacement. A reciprocating pump is a type of positive displacement pump that uses a piston or plunger to trap and move liquid. A rotary pump also positively displaces liquid but does so continuously rather than reciprocating. A centrifugal pump is a type of dynamic pump that uses a rotating impeller to accelerate liquid and convert kinetic energy to pressure energy to move the liquid.

Hydraulic machinery is popular due to its ability to transfer large power through small tubes and hoses.
A turbine is a rotary mechanical device that extracts energy from a fast moving flow of water, steam, gas, air, or other fluid and converts it into useful work. Also a turbine is a turbo-machine with at least one moving part called a rotor assembly, which is a shaft or drum with blades attached. Moving fluid acts on the blades so that they move and impart rotational energy to the rotor. According to the fluid used:

Although the same principles apply to all turbines, their specific designs differ sufficiently to merit separate descriptions.
Working Principle Water Turbine
• When the fluid strikes the blades of the turbine, the blades are displaced, which produces rotational energy.
• When the turbine shaft is directly coupled to an electric generator mechanical energy is converted into electrical energy.

Pumps are used to move liquids through piping systems and raise their pressure by applying energy transformations. There are three main reasons for raising liquid pressure: overcoming static elevation changes, friction losses, and meeting process pressure requirements. Pumps are classified as either kinetic (centrifugal) or positive displacement depending on how energy is added to the liquid. Proper pump selection depends on factors like flow rate and viscosity. Cavitation can occur if the net positive suction head (NPSH) available falls below what is required by the pump.

1. The momentum equation relates the total force on a fluid system to the rate of change of momentum as fluid flows through a control volume.
2. Forces can be resolved into components in different directions for multi-dimensional flows. The total force is equal to the sum of pressure, body, and reaction forces.
3. Examples of applying the momentum equation include calculating forces on a pipe bend, nozzle, jet impact, and curved vane due to changing fluid momentum. Setting up coordinate systems aligned with the flow is important for resolving forces into components.
This document discusses various flow measurement techniques including venturimeters, orifices, mouthpieces, pitot tubes, weirs and notches. It provides detailed explanations and equations for venturimeters and orifices. Venturimeters use the Bernoulli's equation to relate the pressure difference between two sections to the flow rate. Orifices use the relationship between head loss and flow rate. The document also defines various coefficients used in flow measurements like coefficient of contraction, velocity, and discharge. It discusses types of venturimeters and orifices based on their orientation and geometry.
This document discusses fluid dynamics and Bernoulli's equation. It begins by defining different forms of energy in a flowing liquid, including kinetic energy, potential energy, pressure energy, and internal energy. It then derives Bernoulli's equation, which states that the total head of a fluid particle remains constant during steady, incompressible flow. The derivation considers forces acting on a fluid particle and uses conservation of energy. Finally, the document presents the general energy equation for steady fluid flow and the specific equation for incompressible fluids using the concepts of total head, head loss, and hydraulic grade line.
This document discusses buoyancy, floatation, and the equilibrium of submerged and floating bodies. It defines buoyancy as the upward force that opposes gravity when an object is immersed in a fluid. Archimedes' principle states that the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by the object. The point where the buoyant force is applied is called the center of buoyancy. For a floating body to be in stable equilibrium, the metacenter must be above the center of gravity. The distance between these two points is called the metacentric height.
The document discusses open channel flow, providing definitions and key equations. It begins by defining an open channel as a channel with a free surface not fully enclosed by solid boundaries. Important equations for open channel flow are then presented, including Chezy's and Manning's equations for calculating velocity and discharge using variables like hydraulic radius, channel slope, and roughness coefficients. Factors influencing open channel flow like channel shape, surface roughness, and flow regime (e.g. laminar vs turbulent) are also addressed.
Pumps are devices that use mechanical energy to increase the velocity, pressure, or elevation of liquids and gases. There are two main types of pumps: positive displacement pumps and dynamic pumps. Positive displacement pumps apply direct pressure on a liquid using a reciprocating piston or rotating components. Dynamic pumps use centrifugal force to generate high rotational velocities and convert the kinetic energy of liquids into pressure energy. Common positive displacement pump types include piston pumps, plunger pumps, and diaphragm pumps. Common dynamic pump types include centrifugal pumps which contain an impeller and casing. Proper consideration of factors like net positive suction head are important for pump selection and operation.
This document discusses different types of pumps, including their classifications, characteristics, applications, and performance. It describes hydrodynamic/non-positive displacement pumps, which use flow to transfer fluid at relatively low pressure and are generally used for low pressure, high volume applications. It also describes hydrostatic/positive displacement pumps, which have close-fitting components and can create high pressures, making them self-priming. Specific positive displacement pump types like gear, vane, piston and centrifugal pumps are examined in terms of their applications and operating principles. Pump efficiencies including volumetric, mechanical and overall efficiency are also covered.
Fluid mechanics deals with the behavior of fluids at rest and in motion. It can be divided into three divisions: hydrostatics, kinematics, and dynamics. Hydrostatics studies fluids at rest, kinematics deals with fluid motion without forces, and dynamics relates velocities, accelerations, and forces acting on fluids. Fluids include liquids and gases, with gases being readily compressible and liquids being nearly incompressible. Fluid mechanics has many applications in daily life and engineering.
This document provides an introduction to fluid mechanics concepts. It defines a fluid, discusses the differences between liquids and gases, and classifies various types of fluid flows according to whether they are viscous or inviscid, internal or external, compressible or incompressible, laminar or turbulent, natural or forced, steady or unsteady, and one-, two-, or three-dimensional. The document also introduces concepts of stress, pressure, systems, control volumes, units, and modeling engineering problems either experimentally or analytically.
This document discusses fluid mechanics and fluid properties. It defines a fluid as a nonsolid state of matter that can flow and change shape. Fluids have density, and buoyant force is defined as the upward force exerted by a liquid on an object immersed in it. Archimedes' principle states that the buoyant force equals the weight of fluid displaced. Pressure is also discussed, along with Pascal's principle about pressure being transmitted equally in fluids.

2) The speed of sound is calculated to be 325 m/s given the conditions. Using the speed of sound and velocities, the pressure change is found.
3) Additional examples are shown to calculate the Mach number and speed of sound given temperature, pressure, and velocity conditions.
Fundamental concepts of fluid mechanicsVishu Sharma
Fluid mechanics is the study of fluids at rest or in motion. It has applications in many engineering fields like design of pumps, pipes, dams, and aerodynamics of vehicles. Fluid mechanics also has emerging applications in areas like renewable energy, environment, biomechanics, "smart fluids", and microfluids. The basic laws governing fluid motion include conservation of mass, Newton's laws of motion, and laws of thermodynamics. Fluids are defined as substances that deform continuously under shear stress, unlike solids. Analysis of fluid mechanics problems involves describing the behavior of properties like density, velocity, stress, and viscosity using differential or integral equations.
The document discusses Moody's chart, which plots the Darcy-Weisbach friction factor against Reynolds number for various relative roughnesses. It was developed based on over 10,000 experiments to characterize pipe flow. The chart shows laminar flow has a friction factor that decreases with Reynolds number, while turbulent flow's friction factor increases with roughness. It can be used to determine friction losses in pipe flow problems by reading the chart based on flow properties. The document also discusses pumps, pumping power requirements, efficiency, and using pump curves alongside system curves to select an appropriate pump.
This document provides an overview of dimensional analysis, which is a technique used in engineering to relate physical quantities that influence a system. It describes how dimensional analysis identifies the relevant variables and forms dimensionless groups of variables. An example is provided to illustrate how dimensional analysis can be used to determine the unknown powers in an equation relating the force on a propeller blade to variables like its diameter, velocity, fluid density, and viscosity. Buckingham's pi theorems are explained as providing the theoretical basis for dimensional analysis.
- The Moody chart shows the relationship between pipe friction factor (f), relative roughness (e/D), and Reynolds number for fluid flow in pipes. It contains four flow regimes: laminar, critical, transitional, and fully turbulent.
- Pipe flow problems can be categorized as head loss, discharge, or sizing problems. Head loss problems involve calculating head loss given other known variables. Discharge and sizing problems require iterative, trial-and-error solutions using the Moody chart.
- Examples demonstrate using the Moody chart and equations to solve for unknown head loss, discharge, or pipe diameter as required. The iterative process involves making initial f guesses and checking if the obtained f value converges on the Mo
This document discusses flow in conduits and pipes, including dimensional analysis, laminar and turbulent flow, shear stress distribution, criteria for determining laminar or turbulent flow, and factors that contribute to head losses such as entrance and exit effects, expansions and contractions, bends and fittings, and valves. It notes that for complex pipe system geometries, experimental data and loss coefficients are required to analyze losses from factors other than friction.
This document discusses different types of flow in pipes:
- Laminar flow occurs in a continuous and orderly manner from left to right with no mixing between layers.

Turbines are devices that extract energy from flowing fluids like water or air. There are two basic types: impulse turbines where the pressure drop occurs in the nozzle and across the rotor it is zero, like in Pelton wheels; and reaction turbines where there is a pressure drop and change in fluid speed across the rotor, best suited for lower heads and higher flows like in hydroelectric plants. The shaft power generated can be used to power generators or other devices.

TIME DIVISION MULTIPLEXING TECHNIQUE FOR COMMUNICATION SYSTEMHODECEDSIET
Time Division Multiplexing (TDM) is a method of transmitting multiple signals over a single communication channel by dividing the signal into many segments, each having a very short duration of time. These time slots are then allocated to different data streams, allowing multiple signals to share the same transmission medium efficiently. TDM is widely used in telecommunications and data communication systems.
### How TDM Works
1. **Time Slots Allocation**: The core principle of TDM is to assign distinct time slots to each signal. During each time slot, the respective signal is transmitted, and then the process repeats cyclically. For example, if there are four signals to be transmitted, the TDM cycle will divide time into four slots, each assigned to one signal.
2. **Synchronization**: Synchronization is crucial in TDM systems to ensure that the signals are correctly aligned with their respective time slots. Both the transmitter and receiver must be synchronized to avoid any overlap or loss of data. This synchronization is typically maintained by a clock signal that ensures time slots are accurately aligned.
3. **Frame Structure**: TDM data is organized into frames, where each frame consists of a set of time slots. Each frame is repeated at regular intervals, ensuring continuous transmission of data streams. The frame structure helps in managing the data streams and maintaining the synchronization between the transmitter and receiver.
4. **Multiplexer and Demultiplexer**: At the transmitting end, a multiplexer combines multiple input signals into a single composite signal by assigning each signal to a specific time slot. At the receiving end, a demultiplexer separates the composite signal back into individual signals based on their respective time slots.
### Types of TDM
1. **Synchronous TDM**: In synchronous TDM, time slots are pre-assigned to each signal, regardless of whether the signal has data to transmit or not. This can lead to inefficiencies if some time slots remain empty due to the absence of data.
2. **Asynchronous TDM (or Statistical TDM)**: Asynchronous TDM addresses the inefficiencies of synchronous TDM by allocating time slots dynamically based on the presence of data. Time slots are assigned only when there is data to transmit, which optimizes the use of the communication channel.
### Applications of TDM
- **Telecommunications**: TDM is extensively used in telecommunication systems, such as in T1 and E1 lines, where multiple telephone calls are transmitted over a single line by assigning each call to a specific time slot.
- **Digital Audio and Video Broadcasting**: TDM is used in broadcasting systems to transmit multiple audio or video streams over a single channel, ensuring efficient use of bandwidth.
- **Computer Networks**: TDM is used in network protocols and systems to manage the transmission of data from multiple sources over a single network medium.
### Advantages of TDM
- **Efficient Use of Bandwidth**: TDM all

Comparative analysis between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquapon...bijceesjournal
The aquaponic system of planting is a method that does not require soil usage. It is a method that only needs water, fish, lava rocks (a substitute for soil), and plants. Aquaponic systems are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Its use not only helps to plant in small spaces but also helps reduce artificial chemical use and minimizes excess water use, as aquaponics consumes 90% less water than soil-based gardening. The study applied a descriptive and experimental design to assess and compare conventional and reconstructed aquaponic methods for reproducing tomatoes. The researchers created an observation checklist to determine the significant factors of the study. The study aims to determine the significant difference between traditional aquaponics and reconstructed aquaponics systems propagating tomatoes in terms of height, weight, girth, and number of fruits. The reconstructed aquaponics system’s higher growth yield results in a much more nourished crop than the traditional aquaponics system. It is superior in its number of fruits, height, weight, and girth measurement. Moreover, the reconstructed aquaponics system is proven to eliminate all the hindrances present in the traditional aquaponics system, which are overcrowding of fish, algae growth, pest problems, contaminated water, and dead fish.
