ABSTRACT:
Inside a single casing the turbopump comprises a main shaft driven by a turbine, a secondary shaft coaxial with the main shaft, a low pressure impeller mounted on the secondary shaft to create a medium pressure flow which is brought back to flow parallel to the axis of the turbopump by a baffle and which is deflected through 180.degree. in a return channel so as to come back parallel to the axis of the turbopump towards a high pressure impeller mounted on the main shaft inside the secondary shaft. The entire HP centrifugal flow formed by the HP impeller is output via the insides of fixed hollow blades forming a portion of the baffle towards a delivery channel secured to the casing and collecting the high pressure fluid after it has passed through the fixed hollow blades. A shunt channel is taken from the delivery channel to apply a high pressure centripetal flow through the insides of the curved hollow blades forming a portion of the LP impeller, thereby establishing driving torque for the LP impeller.
