where g (in m/s2) is the speed of gravity, and is the weight of the type of
liquid substance uniting volume (kgf/m3) ρ .
Centrifugal pumps can be further classified over volut pumps and diffuse
pumps. The flow out of the volut pump impeller is accommodated inside the
volut (or spiral house), which will then channel to the exit nozzle. Diffuse pumps
are used to obtain a high total head. Axial type pumps are used for even lower
heads. The flow in this pump has an axial direction (parallel shaft).
The characteristics of a pump can be described in characteristic curves that
state the size of the pump's total head, shaft power, and pump efficiency to
capacity. The performance curve is generally described as a fixed rotation.
Cavitation is a symptom of evaporation of liquid substances that are
flowing, because the pressure is reduced to the pressure of saturated steam. If
the pump experiences cavitation, there will be noise and vibrations. In addition,
the performance of the pump will decrease suddenly, so the pump cannot work
properly.
When the pump starts running, the magnitude of the resistance moment
due to the load of the pumped liquid will be directly proportional to the square of
the rotation. But to be able to start spinning from a stop state requires a slightly
larger starting moment to fight static friction on the bearings and gaskets. In the
case of centrifugal pumps, the minimum price on the moment curve usually
occurs at the point of flow capacity equal to zero.
