Centrifugal pumps(1)


Centrifugal



Shown above is a cross section through a vertically mounted centrifugal pump.
Water is led to the suction eye of the rotating impeller. The water gains energy by the centrifugal action of the pump and is discharged to the volute outlet casing. The volute is created by increasing the area of the outlet port and is greatest at outlet from the pump. By this design the kinetic energy of the water is converted to pressure energy.
Sealing is provided by a mechanical seal (one half of which is shown above and in more detail below) or by packed gland. For the former cooling water is supplied from the discharge side of the pump. For the latter cooling is provided by the allowance of slight leakage, lubrication is by a grease filled manual lubricator.continued  ....
