A rotor pump is often be used to transfer viscosity fluids from one location to another in many industries. Rotor pumps with steam jacket design considerations to ensure mechanical seal can get a good protect. Steam or hot water can be injected into the pump body or pump cover to keep the working chamber constant temperature. Steam jackets are commonly used in applications with high temperatures requirements or material viscosity is greatly affected by temperature. The rotor pump with steam jacket can prevent the material solidifying resulting in damage to the seal when starting up.

  • Identify the optimal design parameters

  • Evaluate the thermal performance of the steam jacket

  • Determine the necessary pressure levels

  • Analyze the heat transfer requirements


Identify the optimal design parameters

Before deciding on the optimal design parameters for rotor pump with steam jacket, need to do a comprehensive analysis of the transfer medium characteristics. Additionally, it must consider the whether material viscosity is greatly affected by temperature or not ; Once the working condition temperature and material viscosity characteristics have been identified, they must be evaluated in the context of the pump’s overall performance in order to determine the best design.

Evaluate the thermal performance of the steam jacket

An essential step of the design process for rotor pumps with steam jackets is to evaluate the thermal performance of the steam jacket. This process should include the analysis of possible scenarios of temperature and heat transfer, keeping in mind the desired thermal efficiency of the system. The design should also account for the various elements of the steam jacket, such as the insulation material, its thickness, the type of steam used, and the pressure of the steam. Additionally, it is important to consider the possibility of fouling and/or corrosion of the steam jacket, and its effects on the thermal performance of the system.


Determine the necessary pressure levels

When designing a rotor pump with steam jackets, it is necessary to determine the necessary pressure levels. The pressure levels should be set based on the desired flow rate, pump speed, and temperature of the steam jacket. The pressure should be determined using a pressure-temperature chart and considering the pump speed and steam jacket temperature. The pressure levels should be maintained throughout the operation to ensure a reliable and efficient operation. It is important to note that the pressure levels should be adjusted according to the changes in flow rate and temperature.


Analyze the heat transfer requirements

Analyzing the heat transfer requirements is an essential part of designing rotor pumps with steam jackets. Heat transfer calculations must be conducted to determine the size and output of the steam jacket, as well as to determine the maximum allowable temperature of the steam. Additionally, these calculations should also indicate the required steam pressure and flow rate through the jacket. Accurate analysis of the heat transfer requirements is critical to the longevity and performance of the rotor pump.


It is important to consider a number of factors when designing a rotor pump with steam jacket. These design considerations include the pump's material of construction, the  of the rotor blades, the steam jacket pressure, the seal type, and the operating temperature. By taking these factors into account, designers can ensure that the rotor pump works effectively and efficiently. Durrex tells you more product information, welcome to know.
