Other Considerations<br />
• Nozzle Velocities – typical limits<br />
- suction < 20 ft/s<br />
- discharge < 40 ft/s<br />
• Q-rated & Q-normal relative to BEP<br />
- typically Q-rated = Q-normal x 1.1, but sometimes<br />
(eg. reflux service) Q-rated = Q-normal x 1.25<br />
- best is to straddle BEP with Q-normal <strong>and</strong> Q-rated,<br />
especially if Q-rated >> Q-normal<br />
- need to consider: NPSHa, min flow<br />
