    Can inline double suction pump mount two inducers at the front of each impeller

    Hi Artisi Mounting two inducer back to back can theoretically counterbalance the axial thrust generated by inducers. Beside, double suction impeller is also regarded as a "non axial thrust" rotor in theory. but due to manufacture deviation, maybe a little rest thrust exists. Therefore, the...

    Can inline double suction pump mount two inducers at the front of each impeller

    Hi All Thanks for all your replies and feed back. Hi 1gibson Consider the space limitation in vessel, I doubt VS6, i.e. multistage pump is a good solution. Hi MohdYaseen2010 if mounting two inducer at both side, axial thrust can be counterbalanced. But as most you mentioned ,maybe the...

    Can inline double suction pump mount two inducers at the front of each impeller

    Hi All As we know, inducer normally be used in end-suction pump for extremely low NPShr application. But can a double suction pump add inducers? This is only my ideal for big flow capacity and low NPSHr application. However, few pump manufactories I've know have this kind of pumps. Maybe there...

    Propeller pumps design issue

    Recently , I'm trying to design a propeller pump, and I have refer to some product manuals from some pump manufacturer. Now I have a question: why some pump have a stator/ guide vanes behind propeller but some not? In terms of cost, if such a big pump running at 4500m3/h x 4m don't need a...
