Abstract

This paper details the design process of a pump impeller for use in transporting a threephase product stream. This design is to be provided to EDUR-Pumpenfabrik and will assist them in creating a new pump for use in a specialized market. Discussed in this paper are various aspects of design including cover disks, dimension calculations, material of construction selection, component selection, and motor selection. The anticipated life cycle costs of this newly designed pump have been estimated and are included. Also detailed in this report is a view of the pump markets with emphasis on European markets, information regarding the competition of EDUR-Pumpenfabrik, information about a potential customer of EDUR, and a web-page design to market the new product.
