13 by George Wilson Goulds Pumps, Inc. Slurry Pumps There are various types of centrifugal slurry pumps, which are identified by their capability to handle solids ranging in size, hardness, concentration, and velocity. An understanding of these important factors will lead to an optimum choice of pump design where the materials of construction and rotational speed are ideally matched to the process system, Slurry Abrasivity The abrasiveness of slurries is difficult to define due to the number of variables involved. It is dependent on the nature of the slurry being pumped and the materials of construction of the pump liquid end components. Wear increases with increasing particle size. For example, the rate of erosion wear when pumping a silica sand slurry is approximately proportional to the average particle size raised to the power of 1.4. Wear increases with concentration; the relationship is linear up to about 10% by volume. At higher concentrations, the rate of wear will level out due to the cushioning effect of the particles as they collide. Wear increases rapidly when the particle hardness exceeds that of the metal surface being abraded. The effective wear resistance of a metal will depend on the relative hardness of the metal to that of the particle. 226
