Abstract

Centrifugal pumps are used extensively for pumping water over short to medium distance through pipeline where the requirements of head and discharge are moderate. The design and optimization of turbo machine impellers such as those in pumps and turbines is a highly complicated task due to the complex three-dimensional shape of the impeller blades and surrounding devices. Small differences in geometry can lead to significant changes in the performance of these machines. The efficiency of the centrifugal pump can be increased by number of ways such as modifying the geometry of the sump, increasing the diameter of the suction pump, having multiple pumps working in series, etc. This paper is part of research work carried out to improve efficiency of a centrifugal pump through changing shapes of the manifolds.
