ABSTRACT:
A pump testing apparatus is disclosed for testing output characteristics of a fluid flow exiting a pump. The apparatus includes a flow testing structure for testing characteristics of the fluid flow, a first chamber having an interior for receiving a fluid flow exiting the flow testing structure, and a second chamber having an interior for receiving fluid flow from the first chamber. The second chamber has an entrance opening for receiving fluid flow into the interior of the second chamber and a discharge opening for discharging fluid flow from the interior of the second chamber, the second chamber defining a convoluted path for the fluid flow between the entrance opening and the discharge opening. The apparatus also includes structures located in at least one of the first chamber and the second chamber for reducing a velocity of the fluid flow.
