About Turbine Pumps
Turbine pumps are centrifugal pumps that use pressure and flow in combination with a rotary mechanism to transfer fluid. They typically employ blade geometry, which causes fluid circulation around the vanes to add pressure from inlet to outlet. Turbine pumps operate using kinetic energy to move fluid utilizing an impeller. The centrifugal force drives the liquid to the housing wall in close proximity to the vanes of the impeller or propeller. The cyclical movement of the impeller produces pressure in the pumping bowl. The shape of turbine pumps also contributes to suction and discharge rates. Pressure and velocity measured at points in the nozzle, diffuser, or suction chamber along with the specific gravity of the fluids transferred can yield the operating head and/or discharge velocity. The turbine principle has been used in a number of applications including hydroelectricity and other power applications by combining compressors, motors, generators, and pumps.
