# Industrial Specification: Feed Pump Module

## 1. Technical Definition
A modular pumping unit designed to deliver precise quantities of fluid or slurry feed material to downstream processes within an industrial system.

## 2. Engineering Reasoning & Causal Matrix
> **Operational Intelligence**: Designed for **0.5-15.0 bar differential pressure, 5-100 m³/h flow rate**. Failure boundary: **Cavitation occurs at NPSHa &lt; NPSHr + 0.5 m, bearing failure at &gt;120°C oil temperature, seal failure at &gt;10 μm shaft displacement**, Mechanism: **Cavitation due to local pressure dropping below fluid vapor pressure (Bernoulli's principle), bearing degradation from exceeding SAE 30 oil thermal breakdown threshold at 120°C, mechanical seal failure from exceeding 10 μm shaft deflection limit causing face separation**.

### 2.1 Analytical Physics Model
Governed by the **Darcy-Weisbach Pressure Drop**:

> **Primary Equation**: $\Delta P = f \cdot \frac{L}{D} \cdot \frac{\rho v^2}{2}$  
> **Engineering Impact**: Critical for sizing CIP (Clean-In-Place) pump heads.
