Alternative Design of Double-Suction Centrifugal Pump to Reduce the Effects of Silt Erosion

Large amounts of sediment in the Himalayan rivers causes severe silt erosion to the hydraulic machinery operating along these rivers. In this study, the effects of silt characteristics on the silt-erosion characteristics of a double-suction centrifugal pump was studied and the anti-erosion property...
