Understanding The Relationship Between NPSH, Temperature and Pressure: The Key to Avoiding Cavitation in Pumping Systems
When it comes to fluid pumping systems, NPSH, or Net Positive Suction Head, is a critical factor that design and application professionals must understand. The question at the heart of NPSH is whether the pump’s suction has enough pressure to prevent cavitation – a troublesome issue associated with noise, inefficiency, and damage to pumps. However, […]
