PEDAGOGIC APPLICATIONS
• Operation of the open-wheel centrifugal pump
• Collecting data to determine the performance curves relating:
- pressure to flow rate of the pump
- pressure to flow rate of the network
- power to flow rate
- efficiency to flow rate
• Determination of the optimum operating point
• Study of the influence of the speed of rotation
• Determination of the NPSH
