Abstract
This final year project involves designing and developing an experimental rig to determine performance of a pump. This rig is for an academic purpose only. This is because most of the educational purpose experimental rig is really expensive, weighted and hard to use. This project must overcome all this issues and must well develop. The pump that has chosen for the project is a submersible pump. This is because no such pump has been experimented before at University Teknikal Malaysia Melaka (UTeM) laboratory. The rig was designed based on small scale size to suit with lab oriented. The system then was interpreted into Computational Aided Drawing (CAD) software for detail design and later is simulated in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) software in this case is SolidWorks 2008 and COSMOS FloWorks 2008 for data and result validation. The parameter has been set to 10 l/min to 50 l/min for flow rate, which is used to obtain pressure. Experiment also being run based on the same condition, which pressure is read by the pressure gauge. Then both results were compared and pump output power was obtained. Based on the output power the efficiency of the pump was also being obtained. As for final value for parameter 10 l/min to 50 l/min of flow rate, pump efficiency were obtained from 0.175 to 0.792. In conclusion, the experimental relationship can be defined as; when the flow rate increase, pressure decreases, power output increase and efficiency also increase
