Control of Pump Operation by Varying Rotational Speed in the Road Infrastructure

Journal Title: Archives of Transport - Year 2012, Vol 24, Issue 3

Abstract

The paper evaluates applicability of pumping plants to road infrastructure. A comparative analysis is undertaken of the cascade control system of pump operation and the control system of pump operation by varying of rotational speed. The possibility of employing head of sewage in the storage reservoir to reduce energy consumption of pumping is a criterion of the analysis. Impact is discussed of the number of pumps in operation on energy efficiency and reliability of a pumping plant.
