Single-blade centrifugal pump is used as a sewage pump widely. However, single-blade centrifugal pump impeller is acted on a big radial thrust because the shape of the impeller is an asymmetry geometrically. Therefore it is necessary to grasp a radial thrust quantitatively when the reliability of the pump is improved. This study investigated the behavior of the radial thrust to act on single-blade centrifuging impeller by an experiment and CFD analysis. Furthermore, the radial thrust was divided by applying unsteady conservation of momentum to single-blade centrifugal impeller, and it was investigated.
