Experimental study on centrifugal pumps energy labelling in Iran

Abstract

The main goal of the present study was developing the energy label instruction for small centrifugal pumps. First the types of energy labels which are popular in the world especially three types of energy labels were introduced and discussed, two of which belongs to European United and the other one is assigned to Iran. Modified Iran labelling procedure with reasons was criticized and presented as a new approach in the present study. In the next step, e a standard test rig was established for testing of the small centrifugal pumps. A standard centrifugal pump named 32-160 and 32-200 was selected as the case studies. The selected pumps were test in the test rig and then labelled using selected methods. Finally the results considered and discoursed. © Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.
