Centrifugal Pump Components Explained

This 3D animated video shows how a centrifugal pump works. We look at all of the centrifugal pump’s main components and briefly discuss how it works. The volute casing, diffuser, impeller, wear rings, compression packing, shaft and bearings are all discussed in the video. ********** Check out some of our FREE engineering Apps! https://play.google.com/store/apps/developer?id=saVRee ********** Want more high-quality educational engineering videos?

Modern pumps often employ a mechanical seal instead of packing. All these pump components are discussed in the video and discussed in greater depth in the associated video course. Operation Liquid is drawn into the impeller and flows outwards away from the impeller eye. The change in cross sectional area of the impeller vanes and volute casing causes the velocity energy to be changed to pressure energy (Bernoulli’s principle). ********** You can read more about centrifugal pumps and impellers etc. in our technical encyclopaedia: https://savree.com/en/3d-model-library/ This video lesson is part of our Introduction to Centrifugal Pumps course, you can view all available courses here: https://savree.com/en/list-of-savree-courses/ Want to use this 3D model in your training course or lesson?
