Features: This textbook emphasizes the systematic, comprehensive, and practical nature of fundamental theories in the field of pumps, reflecting and embodying the current development direction and achievements of the discipline. Combining teaching needs and practical requirements, the textbook offers unique arrangements and writing styles in its chapters:
① Clearly separates the concepts of pump characteristics and the characteristics of their devices while organically integrating their intrinsic connections, making the content concise and easy to understand.
② Particularly emphasizes the real values at the pump's operating inlet, the concept of net positive suction head (NPSH), and various forms of cavitation margin.
③ Presents the selection and matching of pump units in a more systematic and engineering-relevant manner.
④ Provides a well-organized and clearly structured classification of various pump stations.
The textbook is divided into two main parts—pumps and pump stations—with a total of 8 chapters. The main content includes the classification, working principles, construction, and applications of pumps, as well as the classification, types, unit selection, and matching of pump stations, the design and calculation of pump station structures and pipeline systems, etc. The textbook also includes relevant content on axial-flow pump stations. Each chapter is supplemented with a sufficient number of exercises, including some comprehensive application problems, to help readers delve deeper into the material.
This textbook is not only suitable as a teaching resource for water supply and drainage engineering majors in higher education institutions but also serves as a key reference for professionals in water conservancy engineering and other related fields. Its content is also suitable for use by engineering technicians.
