Bonve is high viscosity transfer pump factory, offer pumping solutions for chemical and sanitary high viscous liquid products transfer.

With the characteristics of low rotation speed and high output torque, Bonve pump shows his talents to transfer high viscosity liquid products. Its unique working principle works with a strong drive system, ensure that the pump can output a strong driving torque at low speed, can guarantee continuous, non-stagnant transferring, and ensure that the transferred material not damage, viscosity can be as high as 1500000CP.

What is viscosity?

The viscosity of a fluid can be regarded as a measure of how resistive the fluid is to flow, it is comparable to the friction of solid bodies and causes a retarding force. This retarding force transforms the kinetic energy of the fluid into thermal energy.

The ease with which a fluid pours is an indication of its viscosity. For example, cold oil has a high viscosity and pours very slowly, whereas water has a relatively low viscosity and pours quite readily. High viscosity fluids require greater shearing forces than low viscosity fluids at a given shear rate. It follows therefore that viscosity affects the magnitude of energy loss in a flowing fluid.
