Conclusions
-
1.
Forlarge-capacity pumping stations operating under low heads application of horizontal-shaft pumps enables the engineering-economic factors of the pumping stations to be increased and the operational conditions of their principal equipment to be improved.
-
2.
An open-chamber arrangement of the outlet, controlled by a radial gate, provides the best possible starting conditions for a horizontal-shaft pump.
