Required torque of the pump
From the data entered and the load characteristic selected the DSD calculates the required torque.
[7-168] Load characteristics of the pump
Calculation of the torque for a quadratic load characteristic (M ≈ n²):
[7-169] Equation 3: Torque for a quadratic load characteristic
Calculation of the torque for a constant load characteristic (M ≈ constant):
[7-170] Equation 4: Torque for a constant load characteristic
Tip!
• Further equations to complete the calculations required for an application can be
found in the chapter "
".
• The host computer "Energy efficiency fan/pump" serves to compare the energy de-
mand in an inverter-controlled and mechanically controlled system.
