A centrifugal pump is a type of machine that is commonly used to move liquids from one place to another. It works by using a spinning impeller to create a flow of liquid. The impeller spins inside a casing and as it does so, it draws in liquid through an inlet and then pushes it out through an outlet.
The spinning motion of the impeller creates a centrifugal force, which is the force that makes the liquid move. This force is directed towards the outer edge of the impeller, where it is converted into pressure. The pressure then propels the liquid out of the pump and into the desired location.
Centrifugal pumps are used in a wide range of applications, including water supply systems, chemical processing plants, and oil and gas production facilities. They are generally reliable and easy to maintain, making them a popular choice for many different industries.
