Abstract (en)

Body ( 8 ) of the pump for chemical reactor heating circuit is equipped with inflow chambers ( 3 , 3a ) on both sides of the rotor ( 9 ), to which liquid metal is fed by means of at least two-way collector ( 2 ). Collector ( 2 ) sections are chosen to maintain quantitative balance of liquid metal fed into both inflow chambers ( 3 , 3a ). Each arm of collector ( 2 ) is introduced into inflow chamber ( 3 ) and inflow chamber ( 3a ) in favourably tangent way, causing whirl of metal stream according to sense of rotation of rotor ( 9 ).
