Magnetic and hydrodynamic suspension stabilizes the impeller in a rotary blood pump, eliminating mechanical seals that cause thrombosis.
A nuclear main pump shaft seal water injection system uses a bypass pipeline and pressure sensor for real-time monitoring.
Bracket-mounted grinder pumps with shaped cutter plates direct flow away from components, reducing vibration and clogging.
A partition wall isolates the bearing from slinger heat, preventing propellant vaporization and ensuring reliable cooling.
An open conical impeller mounted on a magnetic structure reduces blood cell destruction and clot formation while simplifying gas bubble exhaustion.
Electronically commutated pump motor uses processor-based speed control to adjust power consumption dynamically.
Varying vane angles disperses particle concentration gradients via Coriolis forces, reducing localized wear at the vane root.
An integral pressure relief valve within a fuel pump cartridge routes discharge flow directly to the impeller inlet.
A submersible pump uses a gravity-held closure member to retain liquid within the housing for reliable priming.
