Hi to All,

I currently designing a closed loop system hot water supply for hot water tank heater (2unit).
Could anyone please advise me the formula/guide for calculating the circulating pump head.
I have here the following data.
required pump flow (Q) = 75GPM
Length of loop = 130ft

Thanks in advance.

best regards,
michael

Michael,

Pump head calculations are the most basic of process engineering calculations.

Are you a student of chemical engineering? The question is relevant because this particular forum "Industrial Professionals" is for asking questions about compex operational and design engineering issues and requires a certain degree of professional experience and expertise.

In my opinion, your question (pump head calculations) is so basic in nature , that it belongs to the "Students" forum.

I would request all forum members (specially students/fresh engineers) that very fundamental queries should be posted in the "Students" forum. Posts such as these in the "Industrial Professionals" forum are misleading to say the least and just divert the attention of hardened professionals who are looking for much more substantial queries in the "Industrial Professional" forums.

This proper segregation of the postings in the sub-forums will help the administrators to run the forum in a much more organized and orderly fashion.

Regards,
Ankur.
