A clean-fluid pump augments slurry flow, keeping the centrifugal slurry pump within its preferred operating range.
A tension rod compresses ceramic or graphite cores in molten metal pump posts, reducing breakage and material use.
An indented pump base aligns the outlet with the transfer inlet, reducing pressure, assembly complexity, and footprint.
A narrowing inlet, optional throat, and expanding outlet create hydraulic suction while avoiding mechanical degradation.
A narrowing-inlet jet pump uses fluid pressure to remove radioactive sludge vertically without mechanical parts that quickly degrade.
This pump uses an impact body, partition, and gas discharge part to remove gas while maintaining fluid circulation.
A four-bar linkage moderates molten pump-to-mold forces around fragile ceramics.
A magnetic wear layer forms in situ on slurry pump wear elements, reducing abrasive wear, maintenance downtime, and replacement needs.
A convex lip on the impeller shroud guides slurry vortices, limiting flow separation and reducing casing and liner erosion.
This case shows how a rotating cutting plate and hub deflect debris and cut varied materials while limiting jams and torque spikes.
