Energy dissipation mechanism of a centrifugal pump with entropy generation theory

From the numerical calculations of a common centrifugal pump, the energy loss characteristics have been investigated by applying entropy generation theory to examine the loss due to the direct, turbulence, and wall friction dissipation rates. The turbulent and wall friction entropy dissipations cont...
