Centrifugal pump is used to circulate fluids within a system, such as water, oil, coolant, etc.
The pump may be located near the source or destination of the fluid, such as the radiator, the engine block, the fuel tank, etc.
The working of a centrifugal pump is based on the principle of forced vortex flow.
The forced vortex flow means when a certain mass of fluid or liquid is allowed to rotate by an external torque, then there is a rise in pressure head of the rotating liquid. This rise in pressure head is used to deliver water from one location to another.
The main components of a centrifugal pump are the impeller and the casing.
