Abstract: This paper presents a simulation model for the operation of two series pumps, the second being
driven with variable speed. Although this is not usual for this type of configuration that requires generally both
pumps working at the same speed, it seems to be preferred in practice. The model was developed so that to be
able to quickly check the efficiency variable speed drives based on real values, each time more. This can make
possible the choice of other equipments leading to the highest efficiency. The mathematical model was
developed in per units in MATLAB/Simulink environment and can be used for all types of pumps.
Key-words: pump, variable speed drive, series operation, mathematical model, simulation.

3 Mathematical model
A useful method for comparing characteristics of
pumps at different speeds is to normalize on a
selected operating condition, usually best efficiency
[3]. These curves are applicable to pumps of any
size because absolute magnitudes have been
eliminated.
For this feature is based on the internal pump
characteristic at constant speed in actual units [4]:
(1)
H = A + BQ + CQ 2
Where H is the head, Q is the flow rate and A, B,
and C are constants to be determined from boundary
conditions. By dividing the head H by Hn (the head
of the best efficiency) the pump characteristic is
written as:
H

6 Conclusions
In this paper a mathematical model was proposed
for the series operation of two different pumps.
The model is based on a real case data acquired
in a revamped thermal power station. This refers to
a two serial pumps installation that was upgraded. A
new solution with pumps drive at variable speed for
flow rate control was analyzed.
Since this solution can be useful for any other
thermal power station, the model was developed in
p.u. and may be therefore applied for any other
pumps type.
The simulation study revealed the bigger is the
flow rate request by using the second pump with
variable speed control, the lower is the absorbed
power by comparison to that of the model with
constant speed control. This decrease is even greater
as the request of flow rate is lower exceeding 80%
for the allowable minimum flow rate. According to
the affinity law model, the power depends on the
cubed speed, and respectively the cube flow rate.
Some deviation errors could be observed between
the simulation data and those obtained by applying
the affinity law model.
This deviations are as higher as the flow rate is
higher: e.g. if the demanded flow rate decreases
down to 0.625 of the nominal flow, the absorbed
power decreases down to 0.379 of the nominal
power, not to 0.244 of this as it would be the
correspondent given according to the affinity law.
