| 520 | 3 | _aThe study was conducted with the objective of evaluating hydraulic and ergonomic performance of some selected manually operated pumps viz. Kirloskar pump, Kumar Bharath pump, E.P. pump (Lift), E.P. pump (Force) and Bicycle operated diaphragm pump. A subject was selected for the study and his body surface area was calculated. Heart rate was taken as the measure of mechanical work load on the subject and he was calibrated for the basic task. From the calibration curve it was found that heart beat of the subject should not exceed 110 beats/min for the ergonomic safety. Pumps were tested against different suction heads by varying the position of the gate valve connected in the suction line. Discharge, speed of operation, time of operation and heart rate of the subject were noted. Hydraulic characteristics of the pumps were analysed by studying the discharge, time to deliver 100 1, number of strocks to deliver 100 1, and volumetric efficiency with variation in head. Ergonomic features were analysed by studying the variation of heart rate with head. Among the five pumps the volumetric efficiency of Kumar Bharath pump reduced below 75% beyond the head 6.9 m corresponding heads for the other pumps are 6.7 m for Kirloskar, 5.8 m for E.P. pump (Force) 5.7 m for E.P. pump (Lift) and 1.1 m for diaphragm pump. Time to deliver 100 1 and number of strokes to deliver 100 1 were highest in the case of diaphragm pump and least in Kumar Bharath and Kirloskar pumps. Taking hydraulic and ergonomic performance into consideration the following heads can be recommended for the pumps. Kumar Bharath 6.6 m, Kirloskar 5.25 m, E.P. pump (Lift) 5.7 m, E.P. pump (Force) 5.8 m and diaphragm pump 1.1 m corresponding discharge of the pumps are 0.23 1/s, 0.37 1/s, 0.3 1/s, 0.45 1/s, 0.45 1/s respectively. | |
