Effective Pump Intake Design and Troubleshooting Problem Intakes: Using the Standard for Solids-Bearing Liquid Intake Design / 1 Hour / July 9, 2025 / Webinar

July 9, 2025 1:00 pm

This webinar provides a recap of issues and problems associated with solids-bearing liquid intake design, followed by an exploration of the use of the ANSI/HI 9.8 Intake Design for Rotodynamic Pumps Standard. It covers various intake structures for solids-bearing liquids, including circular, regular, confined wet-well, and trench-type designs, supplemented with detailed 3D renderings and plan view figures from the Standard. The session concludes with real-world field examples, a summary of key points, and a Q&A session for further discussion. SKU:LW703C

Effective Pump Intake Design and Troubleshooting Problem Intakes: Physical and CFD Modeling and Future of the Standard / 1 Hour / August 6, 2025 / Webinar

August 6, 2025 1:00 pm

This webinar offers a recap of issues and problems in intake design, followed by an examination of physical and CFD modeling techniques. It delves into the benefits, applicability, and acceptance criteria of physical modeling, discussing topics such as hydraulic similitude, model limits, instrumentation, testing programs, reporting, and the process of developing an RFP for physical modeling. Additionally, it discusses the future direction of the ANSI/HI 9.8 Standard. The session concludes with a summary of key points and a Q&A session for further discussion. SKU:LW704C
