Abstract
A centrifugal pump comprises a pump assembly, through which a fluid can be impelled. The pump assembly includes a fluid inlet and a fluid outlet, a fluid casing, and an impellor positioned within the fluid casing, the impellor being driven by a power source and being operable to generate fluid flow within the fluid casing from the fluid inlet to the fluid outlet. The pump assembly also includes a volute area formed on a periphery of the fluid casing, the volute area being operable to receive fluid pressurized by flow induced by the impellor. A pitot tube is positioned within the volute area, the pitot tube being operable to receive pressurized fluid from the volute area and pass the fluid through an outlet having an expanding geometry that increases the flow rate of the fluid as it passes through the outlet.
