HPRT Introduction
20-Jan-13
Pump as HPRT
Hydraulic Power Recovery Turbine can be a pump operated with reverse flow.
In such a case, a pump is termed as HPRT. Pump Discharge is termed as HPRT Inlet Pump Suction is termed as HPRT Outlet.

Pump as HPRT
Any centrifugal pump can be successfully used as HPRT. Advantages of using pump as HPRT are :-

Applications of HPRT
Potential areas for application are: Pipeline services on the down side of high mountain areas (can lead to eco-friendly distributed power generation schemes) Feasible option as micro/ pico/ small hydro application since conventional turbine system can cost INR 50000 65000 per kW. Also, designing a pump as per available flow and head is easier compared to designing a similar turbine Water distribution system where hydraulic power is degraded just for distribution without recovery Product bleeding from a high pressure point in the pipe line to storage Nearly 20% - 30% industrial pumping energy is lost in throttling; all available for recovery
Geothermal applications
Hydro-cracking operations where effluent from the reactor is at high pressure Water treatment plants where rejections from membrane are with high energy

Uses of HPRT
HPRT can be used as a driver: To drive rotating equipments like pump or compressor as a solo driver or a helper driver in tandem with steam turbine or electric motor. To drive electric generator for power generation.
