Interaction Between Geometry and Performance of a Centrifugal Pump

Informationen zum Autor Iver Brynild Neumann is a Norwegian political scientist and social anthropologist. He is the current Montague Burton Professor of International Relations at the London School of Economics and Political Science. Klappentext The design of hydraulic machinery in general and of centrifugal pumps in particular has been essentially empirical. This text attempts to establish a rational step-by-step design procedure including the geometrical aspects of the design! to assist the designer in making appropriate design choices.
