The paper raises the question of the possibility of reducing the energy loss of the stage of the centrifugal pump on the disk friction, the relative value of which for the stages of low and ultralow speed can be a significant proportion (up to 40%) of all losses. This is seen as one of the effective ways to increase the efficiency of such stages of centrifugal pumps.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
