This course is intended for engineers and technicians who are involved in the specification, reliability improvement or operation of slurry pumping systems.
Course Outline:
- The basics of slurry pipeline flow, including settling and non-settling slurries and deposition velocity
- Slurry classification and its impact on pump selection
- Construction and operation of both centrifugal and positive-displacement slurry pumps
- The recommendations contained in ANSI/HI Standard 12.1-12.6-2011 "Rotodynamic (Centrifugal) Slurry Pumps"
- System curves and slurry system hydraulic design
- How to interpret multi-speed slurry pump performance curves
- The effect of solids size and concentration on both pump operation and pump wear
- Slurry pump operation monitoring techniques, and detection of incipient failure
- Wear measurement and interpretation of pump wear patterns
- Total cost of operation, versus capital costs
- Dredge pumping
- Froth pumping
- Relative merits of different sealing and gland water control systems
