Pump
This pump unit model is a class of pressure changer which is based on the IDAES pressure changer and makes the following assumptions:
supports a single liquid phase only
supports steady-state only
supports isothermal pump only
Degrees of Freedom
Pump units generally have two or more degrees of freedom, depending on the pump efficiency model used.
Typical fixed variables are:
outlet pressure, \(P_{out}\) or pressure difference across the inlet and outlet,:math:Delta P
pump efficiency
Model Structure
The pump unit model consists of a single ControlVolume0D
(named control_volume
)
with one Inlet Port (named inlet
) and one Outlet Port (named outlet
).

Variables
When the configuration option variable_efficiency
is set to its default of VariableEfficiency.none
(indicating constant efficiency), the variables are the same as those listed in the “Variable” tab of
IDAES pressure changer.
When the configuration variable_efficiency
is not VariableEfficiency.none
, then there are three additional variables to account for variable pump efficiency:

|

Equations and Relationships
When the configuration variable_efficiency
is set to default VariableEfficiency.none
, the constraints are the same as those listed in
IDAES pressure changer.
When the configuration variable_efficiency
is not VariableEfficiency.none
, there are two additional constraints:
Description |
Equation |
---|---|
Pump flow ratio |
\(F_{in, t} = r_{bp, t} * F_{bp}\) |
Actual pump efficiency |
\(\eta_{pump, t} = \eta_{bep} * r_{bep, t}\) |
When the configuration variable_efficiency
is set to VariableEfficiency.flow
,
then the pump efficiency is assumed to depend only on flow (Kuritza et al., 2017):
\[\begin{split}\eta_{pump, t}= \begin{cases} 0.4 & \text{for } r_{bp, t} < 0.6\\ -0.995 * r_{bp, t}^{2} + 1.977 * r_{bp, t} + 0.018 & \text{for } 0.6 \le r_{bp, t} \le 1.4\\ 0.4 & \text{for } r_{bp, t} > 1.4 \end{cases}\end{split}\]
NOTE: this option for centrifugal pumps has been used in modeling but not validated for high pressure applications

initialize (dict) – ProcessBlockData config for individual elements. Keys are BlockData indexes and values are dictionaries with config arguments as keys.
idx_map (function) – Function to take the index of a BlockData element and return the index in the initialize dict from which to read arguments. This can be provided to override the default behavior of matching the BlockData index exactly to the index in initialize.
