Define Centrifugal pump ?
The centrifugal pump is a device to lift the liquid from lower to higher level by developing the necessary pressure with the help of centrifugal action. In general it can be defined as a machine to increase the pressure energy of the fluid. In the centrifugal pump, the mechanical energy of rotating impeller is converted in to the pressure energy of the fluid.
The main parts of centrifugal pump :
1.Impeller
2.Casting
3.Suction pipe
4.Foot valve and strainer
