... a new method for calculating the flow through regenerative pumps with bucket form blades to predict the performance curves by a cheap and easy-to-use way. Design/methodology/approach The analysis was carried out based on the geometric shape of a fluid particle trajectory in a regenerative...

...Jafar Nejad; Alireza Riasi; Ahmad Nourbakhsh Purpose Regenerative flow pump (RFP) is a rotodynamic turbomachine capable of developing high pressure rise at low flow rates. This paper aims to numerically investigate the performance of a regenerative pump considering the modification in blade...
