______________ pumps are axial flow pumps?
Correct answer: B. Propeller
- A. Turbine
- B. Propeller
- C. Diffuser
- D. None of these
Explanation
Propeller pumps have an axial-flow configuration, with fluid entering and leaving mainly parallel to the pump shaft. Turbine and diffuser describe other pump features or types, not axial-flow pump classification here.
