Pravin D. Bhawar | M. B. Patwardhan

Abstract: Casing of Centrifugal pump is key factors for satisfactory performance of centrifugal pump. In this paper the Casing is designed in such a way that it should be operating without leakage and internal contact to rotating and stationary members. While engaged in maximum allowable working pressure (M. A. W. P. ) and maximum operating temperature. This report presents the generation of model; structural and seismic analysis; and necessary geometrical modifications performed for pump casing. Possibility of failure would be examined under structural and seismic analysis. For theoretical investigation of problem Finite Element Method is used. To control possibility of failure and its failure phenomenon are examined and necessary geometrical modifications are applied to the initial model; Such that geometrical modifications should not increase the manufacturing costs.
