We at Pythagoras,
continually focus on optimizing pump design to improve the efficiency and
meeting the industrial design standards by using finite element analysis (FEA)
and computational fluid dynamics (CFD).
Most recently, Pythagoras Engineering collaborated with one of the largest pump manufacturer in the design improvement process of a legacy OH3 pump design to meet the demanding Nozzle loads and Motion loads requirements of FPSO.
Key FEA activities carried:
- Structural analysis of
base skids during lifting, Transport, In-
- Weld strength evaluation
- Bolt utilization
calculation
- Design of saddles to
optimize the dynamic characteristic of the pump assembly
- Pad eye design calculation
- Stress analysis of the
pump casing by taking account of Nozzle loads and Motion Loads.
- Design optimization
- Industrial design code
qualification
- Modal, Harmonic, Random
and shock load analysis on the pump assembly
- Durability analysis
Design Validations as per
Industrial codes
- API
- ISO
- DNV
- ASME section VIII division
2 & 3
- Eurocode etc
Our FEA expertise combined
with our industry-renowned process will mitigate your risk, improve the
performance of your product, shorten your lead times and reduce your costs.
