MARTINEZ VALDES, Yaset  and  RIANO VALLE, Félix. Peculiar characteristics of the operation of rotodynamics pumps in parallel. Rev Cie Téc Agr [online]. 2010, vol.19, n.2, pp.38-43. ISSN 2071-0054.

This is the first of several papers that will be presented about the topic of the rotodynamics pumps operating in parallel. A brief summary of the operation characteristics and hydraulic behavior of the pumps coupled in parallel is presented firstly. The method of the virtual pumps, a simple and practical procedure is presented for the solution of problems of pumps connected in parallel, when the installation conditions and/or characteristic of the coupled pumps, are in general different for each one.

Keywords : pumps; operation; virtual; parallel; centrifugal; rotodynamics.
