Power Plant Centrifugal Pumps Problem Analysis and Troubleshooting Content

• Section I “Primer on Centrifugal Pumps” is a group of three chapters treating centrifugal pump fundamentals (Chapter 1), performance and components
  (Chapter 2), and operating failures (Chapter 3).
• Section II “Power Plant Centrifugal Pump Applications”  composed of two chapters describing pumping in fossil plants (Chapter 4) and pumping
  in nuclear plants (Chapter 5).
• III “Troubleshooting Case Studies” is seven chapters detailing actual troubleshooting case studies for several power plant pump problems. These case studies are taken both from the author’s own pump troubleshooting projects as well as documented case studies from articles, conference papers, short courses, and private communications with the late Dr. Elemer
  Makay. Case study documentaries have also been provided by Mechanical Solutions, Inc

The requirements of these pumps vary considerably for different industries and applications. Power plant requirements for centrifugal pumps are among the most demanding of any industry. With the advent of modern computational fluid mechanics (CFM), finite element analyses (FEA), measurement sensors, and digital data processing, the evolution of centrifugal pump technology development still continues to advance.
