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.
A simple hydraulic pumping circuit. Point O is the free suction surface, and point i is the inlet of the impeller. In a pump, cavitation will first occur at the inlet of the impeller. [1] Denoting the inlet by i, the NPSH A at this point is defined as:
Very small flow compressors often employ two centrifugal compressors, connected in series. Although in isolation centrifugal compressors are capable of running at quite high pressure ratios (e.g. 10:1), impeller stress considerations limit the pressure ratio that can be employed in high overall pressure ratio engine cycles.
Used in centrifugal impeller terminology, bladelets are the more 'Metro' version of the common engineering description of splitters (shorter blades that do not extend into the centre of the impeller). The term is thought to have originated among the middle-upper-level management at medical device engineering companies, near the turn of the ...
Author probably read somewhere how they "used a centrifugal impeller" in the new engine, and got confused, thinking that must mean that it's an impeller, unlike an axial compressor. But its not; they are both impellers, and thus the whole section has no relevance, as well as being misleading to people. .45Colt 10:14, 12 November 2015 (UTC ...

The majority of languages of Spain [4] belong to the Romance language family, of which Spanish is the only one with official status in the whole country. [5] [6] Others, including Catalan (in Catalonia, Valencia and the Balearic Islands) and Galician (in Galicia), enjoy official status in their respective autonomous regions, similar to Basque in the northeast of the country (a non-Romance ...
