The Similarities And Differences Between Slurry Pumps And Mud Pumps

Subtration of similarities and differences between slurry pumps and mud pumps

Slurry pumps refer to a machine that increases the energy of solid and liquid mixture by using the action of centrifugal force (rotation of the pump impeller). The working principle is to transfer the mechanical energy of the prime mover to the liquid by relying on the action of the rotating impeller on the liquid. Since the velocity energy and pressure energy of the actuating liquid flow from the inlet of the impeller to the outlet, both its velocity energy and pressure energy are increased. The liquid discharged by the impeller passes through the pressure outlet chamber, and most of the velocity energy is converted into pressure energy, and then transported out along the discharge pipeline. At this time, a vacuum or low pressure is formed at the inlet of the impeller due to the discharge of the liquid. The liquid in the inlet of the inlet of the liquid is pressed into the inlet of the impeller under the action of the liquid pressure (atmospheric pressure). Therefore, the rotating impeller continuously sucks and discharges the liquid.

Not only does it save energy 4%-8% more than similar products, it also contributes to the atmosphere's escape from haze. For example, the slurry circulation pump used for desulfurization of power plants also belongs to the category of slurry pumps.

Many people will confuse the concepts of the two, but from the perspective of practical applications or the characteristics of transmission media, the two are indeed inseparable. Slurry pumps are mainly suitable for mining, power plants, dredging, metallurgy, chemical industry, building materials, petroleum and other industries.

Mud pumps are also a wide range of pumps, with different geographical locations, habits, and popular concepts involving different pump types than those used in the field of oil drilling.

The similarities between the two:

1. From the working principle is a centrifugal pump. From the concept of centrifugal force (pump impeller rotation), the action of the mixed medium of solid and liquid increases the energy of the machine and converts energy into kinetic energy and potential energy devices.

2. It has a vertical horizontal type, which is a transport slurry.

It is the difference between the two:

1. The slurry pump has strong wear performance and the ability to transport particles is stronger than that of the mud pump;

2. The general processing capacity of the slurry pump is stronger than that of the mud pump, and is mainly used for mine washing such as coal and metal;

3. The slurry pump is more suitable for slurry with not very strong abrasives;

4. The material of the flow component of the slurry pump is generally cast steel, while the slurry pump is generally made of high chrome wear-resistant alloy materials.
