Sewage pumps are designed with a wide flow channel by, for example, sacrificing some efficiency and reducing the number of blades, in order to prevent plugging with foreign bodies. Authors have been proposing a new type of sewage pump impeller designed to further improve pump efficiency and performance in passing foreign bodies. This sewage pump impeller has a structure in which the suction flow channel of closed type non-clog pump is wound in a helical spiral. The focus of this research was to investigate internal flow in this single blade sewage pump impeller. The results clearly indicated the following facts. As a result of having compared experimental results by LDV with calculated results by CFD, there is the difference about the radial component of absolute velocity, but agrees about pump performance and the tangential component comparatively well. A flow to circulate through in the impeller again is accepted by an experiment, and the sign is accepted by CFD in a specific impeller position.
