Centrifugal pump refers to a kinetic device. The centrifugal pump makes use of the centrifugal force in order to push out the fluid. The liquid which is entering pump obtains the kinetic energy from rotating impeller. The centrifugal action of impeller accelerates the liquid to the high velocity, transferring the mechanical energy to liquid. So it discharges the liquid at the high rate. According to the formula:

Centrifugal force F= (M*V2)/R.

Where,

M-Mass
V-Velocity
R-Radius
