Computerized Axial Flow Pump Test Rig
Product Code : EL-TMLE-10683
Computerized Axial Flow Pump Test Rig (code EL-TMLE-10683) is a trainer for measuring and analysing the performance of an axial flow (propeller) pump in a closed water circuit. The pump gives 1000 W at 1000 min-1, a maximum flow rate of 700 L/min and a maximum head of 1.75 m from a 160 L tank, and flow rate, pressure and temperature are shown digitally and sent by USB to a PC.

What Is the Computerized Axial Flow Pump Test Rig Used For?
In an axial flow pump the water passes through the impeller parallel to the shaft and the propeller blades build up pressure like an aerofoil rather than by centrifugal force, which gives a high flow at a small head; such pumps are not self-priming, must stay covered by water and are used for drainage, wastewater treatment and cooling water supply. Students run the pump through the Universal Drive and Brake Unit, vary the operating point and read inlet and outlet pressure, temperature and flow on the displays and the PC, from which the head, hydraulic power, power requirement, efficiency and pump and system characteristics are worked out.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does an axial flow pump differ from a centrifugal pump?
The water flows through the impeller in the axial direction and pressure is built up by the propeller blades on the aerodynamic principle, not by centrifugal force, which suits high flow rates at small heads.
What performance does the pump have?
The pump gives an output of 1000 W at 1000 min-1, a maximum flow rate of 700 L/min and a maximum head of 1.75 m, drawing on a 160 L tank.
What is measured and how is it recorded?
Pressure at the pump inlet and outlet, temperature and flow rate are measured, shown on digital displays and transmitted together via USB to a PC for analysis with the included software.
What experiments can students carry out?
They can determine the pump's efficiency, head, power requirement and hydraulic power, and record the system characteristics and the pressure/volume characteristics.
What are the measuring ranges?
Flow rate is measured over 0–1200 L/min, temperature over 0–100 °C, outlet pressure over 0–0.6 bar and inlet pressure over ±1 bar.
Does the trainer need a water connection?
No. Its closed water circuit with a 160 L tank lets it run independently of the water system; the electrical supply is 230 V, 50 Hz, 1 phase.
