Flow Characteristics Viscosity determined through index matching, (550 SSU, 109 cP, 0.109 Pa-s) – Much higher than water (1 cP) Flow tested by Army is from 2-10 L/min – Using Reynolds number matching, 6-32 GPM Pressure loss through system ranges from 20 psi to 50 psi – Calculated using Poiseuille flow

Positive Displacement vs. Centrifugal Conclusion: PD pumps provided better flow control, regardless of pressure and handle high viscosities. Graph Credit: pumpschool.com

PD Pump Selection PumpFlow RatesPressuresCommentsCost (3 highest) Gear pump Acceptable, Up to 30 gpm Acceptable, Up to 50 psi Common, can be self- priming 2 Rotary VaneAcceptable Not really used in our application, better for thin fluids and high pressure differentials 2 DiaphragmAcceptable Create pulsing flow, need air supply, cheaper 1 Lobe PumpAcceptable Used in Sanitary applications where fragile solids are used, bi-rotational, may be overly complex 3 Image Credit: Wikipedia; Info Credit: pumpscout.com
