2. Centrifugal pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_pump

   Centrifugal pumps with an internal suction stage such as water-jet pumps or side-channel pumps are also classified as self-priming pumps. [10] Self-Priming centrifugal pumps were invented in 1935. One of the first companies to market a self-priming centrifugal pump was American Marsh in 1938. [citation needed]

3. Impeller - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impeller

   Several different types of pump impellers Flexible impeller of cooling system pump of an outboard engine (1 euro cent coin for comparison, diameter 16.25 mm). An impeller is a rotating component of a centrifugal pump that accelerates fluid outward from the center of rotation, thus transferring energy from the motor that drives the pump to the fluid being pumped.

   HMD Pumps in England invents and engineers the world's first magnet drive pump. 1957—Sundstrand develops the first water injection pump for the commercial jet aircraft industry. The pump is designed to boost engine thrust during takeoff. 1962—Sundstrand develops the first Sundyne high-speed centrifugal pump and sells it to Shell Chemical.

6. Volute (pump) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volute_(pump)

   Pump and volute casing. A volute is a curved funnel that increases in area as it approaches the discharge port. [1] The volute of a centrifugal pump is the casing that receives the fluid being pumped by the impeller, maintaining the velocity of the fluid through to the diffuser. As liquid exits the impeller it has high kinetic energy and the ...
