Description
A centrifugal pump is one of the simplest pieces of equipment used to convert the energy produced in an electric motor or engine into velocity or kinetic energy and then into pressure. The energy changes occur in two main parts of the pump, the impeller and the volute. The impeller is the rotating part that converts driver energy into kinetic energy. The volute is the stationary part that converts kinetic energy into pressure. This edited volume discusses this topic.
