The increased use of the centrifugal pump during coronary artery bypass surgery has been based primarily on theoretical data related to patient safety. There is minimal evidence suggesting improved outcome when compared to the traditional roller pump technology. We prospectively randomized 200 patients undergoing elective coronary artery bypass grafting into centrifugal pump (100 patients) and ...

This paper opens a new page in the theory of electric-centrifugal pump control and oil production. Emerging ideas give us opportunity to predict state centrifugal during operation, facilitate approach centrifugal-pump selection procedure, provide scientific explanation separation process, explore scaling processes pumps, develop salt-deposition prediction methods bring closer basis for automati...

Centrifugal pumps are used in cooling the engine by pumping water as coolant into the engine. The normal function of the coolant is to discharge coolant at a specific velocity into the engine coolant volume, once the coolant crosses 150 C temperatures then it is taken to the radiator for cooling to 50 C. Due to changes in the engine design it is desired to have changes in the centrifugal pump d...

The purpose of this study is to measure and compare the hemolysis produced by roller pumps with varied occlusion settings and a centrifugal pump. The null hypothesis is that there is no difference in the Index of Hemolysis (IH = gm Hb/100 L pumped) produced by a roller pump (RP) at four different occlusion settings and a centrifugal pump (CP) at the same blood flow rate (4.5 L/min) and afterloa...

Preliminary process design in 1997 for a new grass roots polymer unit in the Gulf Coast raised the possibility of using a single centrifugal pump instead of two reciprocating compressors to feed ethylene into the reactors. The objectives of this change were lower capital cost, energy consumption, and maintenance expense. Discussion of the possible application led finally to the design, manufact...

The goal of this research is the derivation of method for evaluation of efficiency improvement potential for district heating systems with focus on variable speed centrifugal pump. The effectiveness of the usage of the proportional pressure control is compared with the constant pressure control. This is why, energy calculation analyses have been realized for variable speed centrifugal pumps, an...

In order to simulate the energy efficiency fluctuation behavior of an industrial centrifugal pump with a six-blade impeller, a full-scale three-dimensional (3D) an unsteady state computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model was used. Five operational points with different flow fluxes were numerically investigated by using the Navier–Stokes code with shear-stress transport (SST) k-ω turbulence model...

The occurrence of gaseous microemboli (GME) within the extracorporeal membrane oxygenation circuit is largely overlooked, as are methods to ameliorate this occurrence. We aimed to determine if the air handling capability of the Quadrox D oxygenator was dependent upon whether it was used in conjunction with a centrifugal or roller pump; and if application of a Pall air eliminating filter (AEF) w...

In this paper we propose the study of a centrifugal pump control system driven by a three-phase induction motor, which is supplied by a PhotoVoltaic PV generator. The system includes solar panel, a DC / DC converter equipped with its MPPT control, a voltage inverter to three-phase Pulse Width Modulation PWM and a centrifugal pump driven by a three phase induction motor. In order to control the ...
