    There are four main types of rotodynamic pumps described in the document: axial pumps (propeller pumps), centrifugal pumps (mixed flow and radial flow), and turbine pumps. Axial pumps develop pressure through the flow of liquid over propeller-like impeller blades and are used for applications like oil refineries. Centrifugal pumps, either mixed flow or radial flow, use an impeller to push liquid outwards, with radial pumps operating at higher pressures. Turbine pumps are mainly used for pumping water from deep underground sources and have low RPMs with high head.
