SYS-4. System design
Choose optimal drive train (mechanical and electrical system) for a pump in water supply system.
Parameters:
- Rated flow 50 l/s, head 200 m, pump efficiency 81%
- Grid voltage 690 V
- Conditions in the electric room
- Cable 50 m
- Heat removal capabilities
- Distance from the electric room to the pump (cable length) - 50 m
- Conditions at the place of the pump installation
- Pump's mechanical configuration (vertical/horizontal shaft)
Make and present three design variants:
- 1st variant: design for lowest cost.
- 2nd variant: design for highest efficiency (lowest energy consumption).
- 3rd variant: design for highest efficiency with budget constraints on the investment in the new drive system of 31000 Euro.
Present benchmarking results as a spider diagram. Compare the system on the primary and the secondary criteria.
