Pumps & Pressurized Piping Systems: Performance, Computer Selection & Application

Pumps and compressors find extensive use in power plants, water circulation systems, A/C and heating systems, and many other applications. Keeping these machines running with least troubles and shutdown decreases the downtime of the whole system. Right machine selection appropriate to the right application, right machine operation, effective maintenance programs, reliable monitoring system, and skilled personnel capable of doing the right trouble shooting are essential requirements for prolong machine life. All the above can be achieved via deeper understanding of the machines construction and tolerances, the limits and constrains on their operation, and the more effective controlling methods.

The aim of this course is to enhance the knowledge & skills of the participants in the following topics: characteristics & performance of pumps, selection of pumps, cavitation, hydraulic losses in piping systems & design of piping system will be included

Mechanical, Operation, Production, and Maintenance Engineers should benefit from this course. Also Technicians should update and refresh their knowledge by attending this course.
