Centrifugal Pump Theory

Centrifugal pump is a roto-dynamic machine that imparts energy to fluid by rotating impeller to increase the pressure of a fluid. These pumps are commonly used to move liquids through a piping system. When the fluid enters the pump impeller along or near to the rotating axis it is accelerated by the impeller, flowing radially outward into a diffuser or volute chamber (casing), from where it exits into the downstream piping system. Centrifugal pumps are used for large discharge through smaller heads.
