Type of a centrifugal pump that borrows characteristics from both radial flow and axial flow pumps.

It is a type of pump casing design that has an offset impeller creating a curved funnel with an increasing cross-sectional area towards the pump outlet which causes the fluid pressure to increase towards the outlet.

It is used for a wide variety of industrial applications thanks to their increased efficiency and ability to pump fluids at higher pressures.

It is a rotating component of a centrifugal pump that accelerates fluid outward from the center of rotation, thus transferring energy from the motor that drives the pump to the fluid being pumped.

Centrifugal pumps can also develop a phenomenon called “cavitation”.

When the sealing is achieved by means of packing, the chamber is referred to as a ___________.

A pump moves fluids from ___ pressure to ____ pressure.

When the sealing is achieved by means of a mechanical seal, the chamber is commonly referred to as a ___________.

Type of a centrifugal pump where the liquid enters at the center of the impeller and is directed out along the impeller blades in a direction at right angles to the pump shaft.

Type of a centrifugal pump where the impeller pushes the liquid in a direction parallel to the pump shaft.

Multistage centrifugal pump consists of two or more __________.

Multistage centrifugal pumps have the following two advantages except ______.
