Turbine Pumps | 3 Types of Deep Well Pumps
In this article we will see the turbine pumps which is a specific type of centrifugal pumps that are using radially-oriented teeth turbine like impeller for fluid movement. They are often known as vortex, periphery or regenerative pumps. All roto dynamic pumps (i.e. Centrifugal pumps) have got a problem of limited suction i.e. the depth from which water can be lifted. This puts a restriction on usage of these types of pumps for lifting / sucking water from depths greater than 6 to 8 m. The theoretical suction lift of roto dynamic pumps at sea level and 30 °C temperature is 10.33 m but due
