Diffusers

 

  • The diffuser is a part that, with the least amount of loss feasible, reduces flow velocity and raises static pressure in response.

  • A diffuser's distinguishing characteristic is a flow path with increasing cross-sectional area in the direction of flow, in a closed duct or channel

  • The vane angle for either volute or diffuser, if properly designed, is correct for only the capacity at the BEP. If the pump is operated at some other capacity, the diffuser may act as a hindrance rather than as an aid to efficient operation.
