Most of the internal combustion piston engines built for vehicles throughout history have pretty familiar core designs. The majority of fuel-burning vehicles sold today orient their pistons in inline ...

Abstract: The high biocompatibility and high durability of disposable extracorporeal centrifugal blood pumps (CBPs) utilizing magnetic bearing or bearingless motor technology make them perfect for ...

This study presents an analysis of the abrasive effects of sediments from the bed of the Acre River, Brazil, on the wear of three different ferrous materials employed in the manufacture of impellers ...

ABSTRACT: The performance of a newly designed tri-lobe industrial lobe pump of high capacity is simulated by using commercial CFD solver Ansys Fluent. A combination of user-defined-functions and ...

ACCORDING to the British Pump Manufacturers Association, “pumps are the single largest user of electricity within industry across the European Union, consuming over 300 TWh pa of electricity, which in ...

Central heating pumps contain an electric motor connected to an impeller inside a casing. When the motor turns on, it causes the impeller blades to rotate rapidly. This draws in water from the boiler ...

Royalty-free licenses let you pay once to use copyrighted images and video clips in personal and commercial projects on an ongoing basis without requiring additional payments each time you use that ...

Late-model water pumps used in serpentine (poly-V multirib) drive-belt applications, such as the late-model Corvette aluminum pump shown here, are designed to run backwards (counterclockwise, as ...

The gap leakage between the impeller ring leads to the change of the pump cavity flow characteristics, resulting in the uneven pressure distribution of shroud, which causes the axial force of the ...
