[0002] Centrifugal pumps are widely used and extremely important for chemical industry, agriculture, food processing and other industries. Most of the conventional centrifugal pumps are used for transporting Newtonian fluid medium. For non-Newtonian fluid, because its flow does not comply with Newton's friction law, the viscosity is larger than that of Newtonian fluid, and before using the centrifugal pump for delivery, it often needs to be thinned to enhance its flowability and facilitate delivery. However, the existing centrifugal pump cannot simultaneously have the function of thinning non-Newtonian fluid, and needs to be used in cooperation with special thinning equipment for thinning first, which causes the delivery of non-Newtonian fluid to involve many devices, increases the cost of equipment, and also increases the time cost and hardware cost of setting, maintenance and replacement.
