Answer / phani
After some period, churning effect will takes place, which means dry run. This is due to continuous water circulation within the casing. After some period, due to friction between pump casing and flowing water, heat will be generated, slowly water getting heated up and further evaporation takes place, then pump will be under dry run condition.
Internal circulation means, discharged water can't escape from casing, so only the way to escape is passes through wear ring clearance and came to suction, again from suction to discharge water will flow.
Due to this dry run, shaft and casing will be over heated and thermal expansion takes place, shaft may brake at time.
If bluish or burning marks are found on shaft/impeller, it means that "pump runs on shut off head or Churning effect", it is confirm.

Answer / dineshkumar
It will be okay for certain amount of time. Centrifugal pump will increase fluid pressure to its maximum pressure, as shown in characteristic curve( P_max at Q_min = 0). However this will not last long, if the condition continue to happen, then fluid will heating up until vaporization occur and will induce failure to the pump and piping system. That's way there is minimum flow capacity of any centrifugal pump, so although delivery valve closed, the pump can still running well.

what is the press tool
If you want to provide water or any chemical @ 50 meter height how much head will you prefer for any selected pump...consider it is M.S pipings...how much friction loss will be there...show with calculation.
what is the exact requirement of priming?
In Rankine Cycle we use the concept of Tm(mean temperature of heat addition).In actual cycle the efficiency comes as n=1-T2/T1 Taking Tm into consideration it comes as n=1-T2/Tm as T1>Tm so the efficiency for both case will not same for a same cycle. Can anybody explain how it is possible? Advance appreciation for your effort.Thanks

Hi! Greetings of the day. Can somebody tell me about as built duct sheet area calculation method. As we know that for this purpose A = (W+H)*2*L. But I have query about multiplication factors for elbows, tappers, offsets etc if there is any. Also refer the papers if available. Please revert. Thanks in advance.
