Abstract :
High-pressure pumps are centrifugal pumps
that increase the feed water pressure before it enters the
boiler. The performance of the Kaduna Refining and
Petrochemicals Company Power Plant has been
impacted by their decline from their design output.
Adopting strategies that will boost pump performance
and enhance the plant's functionality is essential. A
mathematical model for the KRPC HP Pump was
established, and a simulation program for energetic and
exergetic analysis of the pump was created.
