Centrifugal pumps are used to transport fluids by converting rotational kinetic energy into hydrokinetic energy of fluid flow. The rotational energy usually comes from an engine or electric motor. They are a subclass of dynamic axisymmetric power-absorbing turbines. [1] Fluid enters the pump impelle

coupled pumpsMagnetically coupled or magnetic drive pumps differ from traditional pumping methods because the motor is magnetically coupled to the pump rather than through a direct mechanical shaft. The pump works by driving magnets that "drive" the pump rotor, which is magnetically coupled to a mai

Centrifugal compressors, sometimes called vane compressors or radial compressors, are a subclass of dynamic axisymmetric work-absorbing turbines. [1]They achieve pressure rise by adding energy to the continuous fluid flow through the rotor/impeller. The equations in the next section show this specif
