Centrifugal Pump Basics (Mechanical Engineering & HVAC)

Centrifugal pumps are the most common type of pump in service today. They have a simple design, robust features and are suitable for many engineering applications. If you are working in any engineering industry, it is almost certain you will encounter a centrifugal pump. But what are they and how do they work? Time to find out!In this course, you will learn:
How centrifugal pumps work.
All of a centrifugal pump's components (volute casing, diffuser, etc.)
Different centrifugal pump designs (axial, radial, etc.)
Working principles of a centrifugal pump (Bernoulli's principle
Different impeller types and designs (open, closed etc.)
Different sealing types and designs (mechanical seal etc.)
Single and multistage pump designs
And a lot more!
This course will give you all the information you need to know about centrifugal pumps and can also be used later as a refresher course. Irrespective of your engineering background (oil and gas, chemical engineering, HVAC, mechanical engineering, automotive engineering etc.), this course will enrich your engineering career because centrifugal pumps are truly everywhere!
Interactive 3D models have been used to show you every pump component in detail.
3D animations show how each component works.
2D images have been used to highlight areas of interest.
