How do you know a pump that looks right at one duty point will still work when levels change, another pump starts, power fails, the wet well rises, or a transient hits the pipeline?

That is where pumping-station design becomes difficult. A selection can look correct on a pump curve and still create cavitation risk, excessive cycling, poor suction conditions, damaging surge pressures, control problems, high energy use, or maintenance headaches once the full station is considered. Trying to solve hydraulics, electrical systems, controls, civil works, reliability, and operations separately makes those hidden interfaces easier to miss.

PUMPING STATION DESIGN HANDBOOK gives you a practical path from defining the service the station must provide to developing a station that can operate across normal, peak, degraded, emergency, and future conditions. Instead of treating pump selection as the whole problem, it connects system curves, equipment behaviour, wet wells, piping, power, controls, site design, commissioning, reliability, and life-cycle decisions through worked calculations, design worksheets, and review checklists.

After working through this handbook, you will be able to:

Calculate total dynamic head, system curves, hydraulic power, losses, operating points, and energy requirements using consistent SI units.
Select and evaluate pumps across a real operating envelope, including efficiency, best-efficiency region, multiple-pump operation, speed changes, firm capacity, and suction margin.
Determine wet-well storage, pump cycling, starts per hour, duty cycles, emergency storage, lead/lag staging, and variable-speed sequencing.
Assess NPSH, cavitation risk, intake conditions, piping losses, valve behaviour, hydraulic transients, and surge-control requirements.
Coordinate motors, variable-frequency drives, electrical power, standby supply, instrumentation, alarms, interlocks, SCADA, and failure-response logic.
Integrate civil, structural, site, flood, access, lifting, maintainability, and cold-climate considerations into the station concept.
Evaluate reliability, commissioning evidence, energy efficiency, life-cycle cost, maintenance needs, and rehabilitation priorities instead of stopping at initial equipment selection.

Key topics include potable-water and booster stations, wastewater and stormwater pumping, system-curve analysis, pump performance, suction design, wet wells and intakes, surge, electrical systems, automation, site integration, redundancy, commissioning, and asset management.

You will get the most from this handbook if you are an engineer or advanced engineering student working with municipal or infrastructure pumping systems and already understand basic fluid mechanics and engineering calculations. It is an educational and professional reference, not a substitute for project-specific investigation, qualified professional judgment, current manufacturer data, verified site information, or the codes and requirements of the authority having jurisdiction.

If you want to move beyond “Which pump fits this duty point?” and learn how to design the entire station around the service it must reliably provide, this handbook gives you the calculations, decision framework, and multidisciplinary checks to do that work with greater discipline.

Store description

**Please note our transit times are from the date of dispatch.** We first started out as “The Paperback Exchange,” a chain of physical bookstores where we would part exchange your beloved books for new stories to transport you to faraway places. However, as shopping started to evolve to online shops and marketplaces, we bid our stores goodbye to become “PBShop.” This transition has only allowed us to blossom as we now ship thousands of titles to book lovers across the globe. We pride ourselves in being a community of local book lovers which allows our passion and devotion to shine in everything we do. In 2020 we not only celebrated our 20th birthday but our 1st birthday as being completely employee owned after becoming an E.O.T in September 2019. We are proud to be different and embrace standing apart on a book mountain by working from a virtual inventory which allows us to provide thousands of books that may be difficult to get for your bookshelf or your studies. Working with a number of different suppliers allows us to explore other avenues such as puzzles, sheet music and even stationery so we really do have something for everyone. Life is about being versatile in all realms of existence. If this is your first purchase with us, or you are a returning customer, we would like to welcome you to the PBShop family, for there is no friend as loyal as a book. We are a company who put our customers at the centre of everything we do as we understand the importance of reading because once you learn to read, you will forever be free. There are a whole lot of things in this world of ours that we are yet to explore, which is why we will forever inspire curious minds.…
