▶️Introduction
Centrifugal pumps consist of a stationary casing (volute or diffuser), impeller, wear rings, shaft, compression packing and bearings. 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 probably dont care at all but does someone know a trick to get back into an Instagram account? I stupidly lost my login password. I love any tricks you can give me!

[@matiascarmelo8365]

@Rafael Vincent Instablaster :)

[@rafaelvincent7670]

@Matias Carmelo Thanks for your reply. I found the site on google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.

[@rafaelvincent7670]

@Matias Carmelo It worked and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy! Thanks so much, you saved my ass !

very helpful taking my grade 2 treatment test and this helps a lot

[@pollux901]

Thank you! This is the best video I even watched regarding the pumps. I would have included an extra minute for explaining the Shaft key as well, but still it's really impressive how well you could explain this.

Hi, I m Masum from Bangladesh. I m a mechanical engineering student and I also work in power plant with my diploma certificate where I have to face a lots of pump related problems. and I found it very informative. it helped me a lot to understand the working mechanism in pump side. so I urge you to keep making such wonderful videos o different topics related to engineering . Thank you very much and a great job you done guys.

Welcome

[@srinij1]

Excellent video. Can you also make video of API submersible vertical pump . I just now subscribed your channel. Keep going

[@abdeslamouabel3681]

I like all your videos. Can you please tell me with which software you do ur animation? Is it fusion 360?

[@deborahbuna2424]

Thanks for your details explanations, I have a question, Valute casing and Casing housing for centrifugal pump - are they the same??

[@aungkyawoo7088]

The volute casing is a kind of casing housing. You may see other casing design which is not volute. In that case, you will see a diffuser ring that changes the kinetic energy into pressure energy. You can look up the diffuser ring in the video @ 3:00.

[@crackedemerald4930]

Don't ball bearing races spin half the speed of the shaft? Nitpicky, because it's an amazing quality video!

[@DeclanTrippier419]

Great video and good job explaining the different components. I have a better understanding now of how it works, however I'm still wondering why a stuffing box is so important? What would happen to the pump if the stuffing box wasn't there? Would the pump just leak, would there be any damage to the pump or shaft?

[@nobilitas16]

you answered your question. Leak 😂

[@proorMarcGideonRsalon]

what software did you use for the illustration. Very nice software, images already rendered at every view/angle of the camera (view)

[@user-ok9oz3wk5x]

Great explanation! I just have a question, what is the main difference between diffuser and volute?

[@savree-3d]

They both do the same job (convert kinetic energy to pressure energy). Volutes are larger, so not the preference for multistage pumps. There is a 4 hour video course for centrifugal pumps, check out courses.savree.com to learn more (or this kzbin.info/door/osExgfjj-DhMJXnQd2Y4gAjoin).

[@mithunprajapati1235]

Please can you make videos on course of compressor., rocket & space ., (industrial element like furnace,steam trap, burner etc)?

[@brajendraprasadyadav5700]

I like very much

[@jersondias4481]

Thank you sir an very well explained

[@princeugochukwu]

Very informative video. 👍 Is a gearbox an alternative to bearing housing? In what cases are gearboxes preferable?

[@princeugochukwu]

saVRee 3D Thanks for your reply. I look forward to a broader perspective. 👍

[@erlingseim482]

Good

[@rohitgupta5008]

Can u pls explain seal gas system used in any equipment ( like turbines).

[@ashishpc3358]

Sir , what is the purpose of the wear ring is it to provide a smooth surface for the impeller to rotate

[@motherland_studios6326]

Do all pumps centrifugal pumps that are sealed with gland packing have lantern rings?

[@jeffsond]

Just started watching this video but before I finish I want to pose a question. We are putting our Dean Brothers mc 10 centrifugal pump back together. We installed the impeller. We go to tighten the impeller nut and if we hand tighten it, it spins nicely. If we just start to tighten it with the socket just a fraction of the, the impeller locks up.

[@johnbosco77]

which software did u use for design

[@sujankulal6874]

While starting a centrifugal pump is it necessary to shut off the discharge port? I have heard it in many application they do so, if yes; why is it done and where will the fluids go and how does it affect the current required (power) for the electric motor?

[@vivekjk6729]

I need help. I noticed that most centrifugal pumps impeller eye have a outward circular extrusion around the inlet. What is the purpose of this? does it have any role?

[@anilkumar7424]

Does lantern ring rotates with the shaft?

[@CharlieIIpics]

Nice model. Pull the threads out of the packing gland though or you won't be able to move the gland in when you tighten that nut you modeled. The gland should have through holes for the bolts.

[@samydiver293]

ياريت يكون فيه ترجمه الي اللغه العربيه 👏👌

[@Iankennedy08]

do you offer modeling services? my company uses solidworks

[@AyushKumar-qu3pg]

👍

[@alhosni331]

How can we check the pump casing concentric

[@samuelappiagyei1327]

what software did you uses for the animation

[@savree-3d]

Just used a screen capture of saVRee.com
