Title: Slurry Pump
Post by: sdlee on October 14, 2007, 08:36:40 AM
hi guys.

I need some basic information about a pump that will be able to transport a nickel slurry up around 1-2m high. the mass flow rate of the slurry is 27 kg/s with a density of 1218 kg/m^3. the temperature of the slurry is 25 deg c.

What is the best type of pump to use in this instance? what sort of power requirement will it have? what does a pump like this cost?

thanks in advance.
