How do I model a manufacturer's pump?


This guide walks through the process of adding pump performance curves into the FluidFlow database, using a centrifugal pump with a 330 mm impeller diameter as an example. You will learn how to input key parameters, define capacity, efficiency, and NPSH curves, and apply the pump to a simple system model.

By following these steps, you can add custom pump performance curves into FluidFlow, define all relevant operating data, and integrate the pump into system models for analysis. Mastering pump curve entry in FluidFlow ensures precise pump selection, realistic performance modeling, and optimized system efficiency.
