What is the connection between Suction Specific Speed and Minimum Flow?

The connection between suction specific speed Sω (NSS) and minimum flow (Qmin) is that, in general, a higher value of Sω (NSS) is associated with a higher value of Qmin.  Beyond that generalized statement, however, there is wide range of deviation and exception. For rotodynamic (centrifugal, mixed-flow and axial flow) pumps suction specific speed is the main […]
