The Influence of Bulb Position on Hydraulic Performance of Submersible Tubular Pump Device
In order to study the influence of the position of the bulb on the hydraulic performance of a submersible tubular pump device, based on a large-scale pumping station, two schemes—involving a front-mounted bulb and a rear-mounted bulb, respectively—were ...
