Design principles for low-noise multistage centrifugal pumps in power plants

  • Published:
Russian Engineering Research Aims and scope

Abstract

Basic design principles for centrifugal pumps with low vibrational activity are considered. Increase in pump vibration is due not so much to residual rotor imbalance as to design and technological factors, some of which are intrinsic to multistage pumps and cannot be eliminated by any means.
