In this video we discuss the relationship between the centrifugal pump curve and the system curve that results in the equipment's operating point. The pump curve is a relationship between the pump's manometric head or pump power head and the flow rate it provides. /// ... 2. Objectives Upon completion of the course, the student will be able to identify a centrifugal pump and its components. He/she will know the main types of centrifugal pumps. He/she will also understand the main steps to operate a centrifugal pump, as well as its maintenance. 3.
