摘要：In recent years, much attention has been paid to the application of high-speed centrifugal pumps; still, the development of this pump faces several challenges. In order to obtain a more comprehensive understanding of the high-speed centrifugal pump, this paper reviewed the engineering application, technical challenges, and feasible solutions of this pump from the aspects of hydraulic design, including cavitation, hydraulic excitation, efficiency issue at an ultra-low specific speed, and the solution to these problems. The current state of the structural design of the high-speed centrifugal pump was briefly described in addition. For the faults in the existing high-speed centrifugal pump, some research studies on pump monitoring were presented. Finally, the status and shortcomings of the design of the pump were simply analyzed and summarized. It is hoped that this study can provide some references for the design and practical usage of high-speed centrifugal pumps.
