Radial Vanes

Radial vanes are precision-engineered curved blades arranged radially around the hub of a high-pressure fish pump impeller. They convert rotational mechanical energy from the pump shaft into kinetic and pressure energy in the fluid (typically water containing fish or aquatic products). The vanes are designed with specific curvature (backward-curved, radial, or forward-curved profiles) to optimize efficiency, minimize turbulence, and handle solid-laden flows without damage to delicate biological materials.

Radial vanes operate on centrifugal force principles. As the impeller rotates at high speed, the vanes accelerate fluid outward from the center (eye) to the periphery. The curved shape guides fluid smoothly, converting velocity into pressure while minimizing shear forces that could harm fish. The vane geometry creates pressure differentials that maintain consistent flow rates even with variable solid concentrations.
