Impeller make the flow has velocity in a centrifugal pump.
The purpose of pump is increasing the pressure.
The flow has velocity envergy via impeller and the energy change to pressure energy in diffuser.
voloute convord the pressure into volicity and the mixtur of propallere and impeller is called turbine pump

The brake horsepower varies as a cube of the impeller diameter.
The principle parts of a centrifugal pump are the pump casing, also called a volute, and the impeller. The other parts are the pump shaft, bearing(s), shaft seal, the wear rings, and the inlet and outlet. The impeller is mounted on the pump shaft. The pump shaft is coupled to an external power source like a motor. The motor turns the shaft, the shaft makes the impeller turn and the fluid being pumped is put in motion. The volute causes a change in pressure in the fluid. The shaft seal stops the fluid from leaking out of the casing (volute). The wear rings separate the high and low pressure areas inside the casing. The bearing(s) make the shaft turn easier. The inlet and outlet parts of the casing connect to the fluid piping system.
volute has an increasing flow area as it wraps around the impeller.So, when the pump is operating at BEP (best efficiency point) ,have to keep the flow velocity constant around the impeller. To achieve that function, the area increases so as to accept the additional flow exiting the impeller.
rotational
At the impeller tip where the linear velocity is highest as it farthest from the shaft center. In case of multiple impeller pump it is at the tip of the last impeller.
The centrifugal pump works in the same way as you use the straw. As the engine starts, the impeller turns which forces the water around it out of the pump's discharge port. ... When the water hits the rotating impeller, energy of the impeller is transferred to the water, forcing the water out (centrifugal force).

A centrifugal pump whose impeller is mounted on the end of a shaft that overhangs its bearings.
involute housing and impeller
PD or positive displacement pump has a piston which directly contacts the fluid. In a centrifugal pump the impeller creates a patial vacuum inside the casing due to which suction takes place. Discharge takes place by the rotation of the impeller.
it is due to the difference in the air intake and impeller construction.
Cube of diameter of its impeller
A centrifugal governor uses the outward force generated by rotating weights to regulate the speed of a machine. As the machine speeds up, the weights are propelled outwards, which triggers a mechanism to adjust the machine's operation and slow it down. Conversely, as the machine slows down, the weights move inward, leading to adjustments that increase the machine's speed.
It depends on the specific pump. For most: the impeller, the wear ring & mechanical seal. In a pump with a packed stuffing box, the packing. In some pumps, the shaft coupling.
