Hydraulic performance of a large slanted axial-flow pump.

The article informs about a study related to the performance analysis of a slanted hydraulic pump of the Taipuhe Pump Station located in Taipuhe valley, Shanghai, China, that has an axial flow. It focuses on analysis of several characteristics of hydraulic pump related to its safe operation, which include impeller elevation, unsteady flow and hydraulic thrust. Further, it mentions that the flow passage was analyzed and the hydraulic thrust was calculated to prevent damage to the bearings.
