Abstract (en)

[origin: EP1640617A2] An electric water pump rotating in the correct direction, comprising a water pump body (2) that has a chamber (3), which is basically cylindrical in shape, and a chamber cover (8), which is fitted at the axial outward end of said chamber (3); an impeller (42) is accommodated and rotates inside said chamber (3) coaxially; said impeller (42) includes at least two impeller vanes (45) that project from the impeller disc surface (44) and said impeller vanes (45) bend to the same direction around the rotating axis OO' of said disc surface (44); Assuming V as the volume inside said chamber (3) and v as the volume enveloped by all the said impeller vanes (45) when said impeller (42) rotates, a design can be made about relations of geometrical parameters between volume of said chamber (3) in said electric water pump and said volume enveloped by all the impeller vane (45) rotating inside said chamber (3) to be in the following range, i.e., ratio between volume enveloped by all the said impeller vane (45) in rotation and volume of said chamber (3): v/V = 0.08 ˆ¼ 0.18
