  • Abstract
    This paper addresses performance improvement of the centrifugal pumps running in variable-speed applications. Focus is on the system operation in the best-efficiency region. The impact of various factors affecting the pumping efficiency in the single-pump and multi-pump environments is described. A method for the multi-pump drive predictive control is proposed.
