Mathematical simulation of the high capacity pumping system for emergencies

Abstract

The article deals with the possibilities of mathematical simulation of the high-capacity pumping module used in emergencies, such as floods and fires. These situations can be broad and varied. In order to respond to these events effectively, formulation of methodology followed with simulation of various scenarios can be very helpful. Based on the high-capacity pumping module MČS-25-330-K produced by Sigma company, and the related certified methodology for its application in the field, mathematical simulations of the system were carried out in MATLAB Simulink. The discharge pressure, flow rate and the pressure loss through straight fire hoses were evaluated for various operational conditions of the pump and partly compared with the field measurement.
