Welcome to the Pump Systems Academy, the leading source for solving all issues related to mining and industrial pump systems. Here, we strive to accelerate the transition to sustainable industries through the reduction of energy, water, and wear parts in pumping systems. As plant managers and mechanical engineers, you understand the crucial role that pumps play in industrial applications. That's why we are proud to present this comprehensive guide on the Affinity Laws for Pumps. In this article,...

As engineers, you know how important pumps are for industrial processes to run efficiently. However, when cavitation rears its ugly head, it can quickly undermine even the most advanced pump systems. Cavitation can cause damage to pump components, reduce efficiency, and increase downtime, resulting in significant losses for your company and headaches for you.

At the Pump Systems Academy, we've seen how challenging cavitation can be for maintenance and operations professionals in mining and other...

When exploring and learning about pumping systems, I was amazed at the information available online today in 2021.  For a non-engineer, there are numerous sites that provide incredibly easy to read and understand information.  The U.S. department of energy has done an excellent job with their tear sheets.  I’ve provided the information that they teach, as it’s an incredibly reliable resource:

Most pumps operating today were selected to meet a maximum system demand, or potential future demands....
