technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to side runner pumps and methods for operating side runner pumps. In this pump, the impeller rotates in a working chamber with side flow passages. Background technique
[0002] Side channel pumps are used to pump liquids and gas-liquid mixtures. The advantage of a side channel pump is that even with relatively large amounts of gas entrained in the liquid, the operation of the pump is only slightly impaired.
[0003] Side channel pumps can also be used to pump in pure gas. For example, for pumping in liquid from a tank, even if the riser line is filled with gas. However, in the case of side-channel pumps according to the prior art, this is only possible if the working chamber contains a large amount of liquid. When the impeller rotates, a large amount of liquid forms a liquid ring in the working chamber, by means of which adjacent blade units are partially closed relative to each other. Although there is always a resid...
