The phenomenon of cavitation and suction lusts are among the most important factors in the installation and installation of centrifugal pumps, which can damage the pump blades, so they should be prevented from occurring. Therefore, in this paper, a new layout before the centrifugal pump was presented and investigated in order to prevent the two phenomena mentioned; all of these results indicated that the pump performance was improved. Also, in reviewing this new method, we are trying to optimize and consume excess energy by restricting the cavitation phenomenon in the industrial sector.
