Support Arrangement Natural Frequency

This document evaluates flow induced turbulence in the discharge line of the RIMA DWD pump P-13101. It determines that the pipe has a flexible stiffness based on its natural frequency. It then calculates several factors related to flow induced vibration and turbulence, including: the flow induced vibration factor (Fv) of 5607.37, the fluid viscosity factor (FVF) of 1.0, and the likelihood of failure (LOF) of 1.26. Based on the LOF, it recommends assessing small bore connections and performing a visual survey to check for construction, geometry, support issues or potential vibration transmission from other sources.
