Abstract
A thrust bearing surface for a floater-style centrifugal pump is described. A thrust bearing system includes a rotatable member including a sleeve, and a flange extending radially on a downstream side of the sleeve, a swirling member on a top of the flange, the swirling member extending axially towards an impeller bottom, wherein as the swirling member rotates, the swirling member guides working fluid in an outwards and upwards direction from the swirling member. A rotating member of a thrust bearing surface includes a sleeve securable to a rotatable shaft of a stage, a flange extending radially around a top of the sleeve, and at least one swirling member extending axially downstream from a top of the flange towards a bottom of an impeller, wherein each of the at least one swirling member extends from an outer diameter towards an inner diameter of the flange.
