Verdantas Flow Labs’ Post

Pump stations are essential to water infrastructure, playing a crucial role in the efficient movement and delivery of water. 💧 Here at Verdantas Flow labs, we specialize in the evaluation and physical modeling of pump station designs, ensuring efficient water movement and delivery. Our expert team constructs and tests physical models under various operating conditions to assess hydraulic performance and identify the presence of adverse conditions. These conditions include vortex formations, high swirl approaching the pump impeller, and non-uniform velocity distributions. These can pose operational and maintenance issues such as noise, vibration, air entrainment, reduced efficiency, and equipment damage. In a recent study for a client, we evaluated a pump station's hydraulic performance against the Hydraulic Institute ANSI/HI 9.8-2018 criteria. We detected unacceptable vortices and are actively collaborating with our client to implement design modifications, ensuring compliance with the Hydraulic Institute standards and requirements.
