about

Centrifugal Pumps

Introduction

A pump is a device used to

move fluids, such as liquids, gases or slurries. It increases the mechanical energy of the fluid. To know more about pump designs in Sussex go to next slides.

How It Works?

This pumps generate high

rotational velocities and then

convert the resulting kinetic

energy of the liquid to

pressure energy. It contains

impeller and casing.

Centrifugal pumps are

generally used where high

flow rates and moderate

head increases are required.

Advantages

• Simplicity

• Compactness

• Weight Saving

• Adaptability to high speed

prime movers

• High Efficiency

Disadvantages

• Relatively poor suction

power

• The pump must be

primed before

pumping can begin

• Can’t deal with high

viscous fluid

• Don’t work in high

head
