- I am working on calculating the critical speeds for vertical cantilever slurry pumps. These values are necessary for safe and efficient pump operation but I am having trouble finding the best method.
Hello all,
I am an engineer with a manufacturing company and I am working for calculating the critical speed for a vertical cantilever slurry pump. This pump design includes one ball bearing and one taper roller bearing within the bearing housing. Then the shaft extends vertically downward within a column with an impeller at the end of the shaft.
At this point, I have proven values that were provided to me but I need to calculate these values for new designs we are working on. Does anyone have a calculator that I can use or a step by step example for this problem? I can provide any details needed but at this point, any sort of assistance will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
