To calculate the Shut Off Pressure:
\[ SOP = 1.2 \times (DH + SH) \]
Where:
Shut off pressure is the maximum pressure that a pump can generate when there is no flow through the pump. It is calculated by adding the differential head and the suction head, then multiplying by 1.2. This is an important parameter in pump and system design as it determines the capability of the pump to handle certain pressure conditions.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ SOP = 1.2 \times (50 + 10) = 72 \text{ psi} \]
The shut off pressure is 72 psi.
Let's assume the following values:
Using the formula:
\[ SOP = 1.2 \times (30 + 20) = 60 \text{ psi} \]
The shut off pressure is 60 psi.
