Calculate Condenser Pump Head







Formula

The formula to calculate the Condenser Pump Head is:

\[ CPH = \frac{(p2 - p1)}{p \cdot g} + \frac{(c2 - c1)^2}{2 \cdot g} + (z2 - z1) \]

What is Condenser Pump Head?

A Condenser Pump Head is a measure of the total amount of "head" that a condenser pump has based on the pressures, flow rates, and heights of the inlet and outlet of the pump. It is a critical factor in designing and analyzing the performance of pumping systems.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula:

\[ CPH = \frac{5000}{1000 \times 9.81} + \frac{3^2}{2 \times 9.81} + 2 \approx 0.51 + 0.46 + 2 = 2.97 \text{ m} \]

The Condenser Pump Head is approximately 2.97 meters.
