The lower slope of pump efficiency characteristic curve was plotted for the case of: constant gain of rotational speed and variable gain of rotational speed. The unified form of the lower slope of pump efficiency characteristic curve was defined for variable head. The right-side coefficient of pump efficiency correction was defined.}, type={Article}, title={Determination of a generalised form of the lower slope region of the centrifugal pump efficiency characteristic curve}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/124992/PDF/7_MECHANICAL_51_2004_1_Szychta_Determination.pdf}, keywords={pump efficiency, energy-consumption}, }
