Figure 1 depicts liquid entering the pump inlet where the
flow is divided to both sides of the impeller. Liquid is immediately
picked up by the “buckets” and pumped about the
liner ring channel as shown in Figure 2. This pumping action
is repeated on a given droplet many times as it is pumped
toward the discharge port. Centrifugal forces and shearing
action combine to add energy each time the droplet passes
through a bucket. Pressure is developed progressively higher
as liquid approaches the discharge. The flow is smooth,
continuous and non-pulsating as the fluid from each side of
the impeller rejoins at the discharge port at extremely high
heads
