Abstract
The present paper introduces the creation of an algorithm and the software used to determine the energetic performance and monitor the efficiency of hydraulic pumps working in various industrial applications, such as water supply systems, water treatment processes, and irrigation systems, particularly in the cases where there is no permanent monitoring. Our field investigations and the surveyed literature show that the only parameter that is neither monitored nor computed is the efficiency of the pumps. The software implementation allows for determining the in-service efficiency of the pumps and comparing it to the value associated with the best efficiency point (BEP). The solution is user-friendly and can be easily installed on any computer or smartphone. The software has been applied and tested in the Hydraulic Machines Laboratory at the “Politehnica” University Timişoara and at the AQUATIM S.A. regional water supply company. The software module monitors the operating regimes of the pumps and supports the deployment of predictive maintenance and servicing.
