A (LOX) pump housing cutaway to reveal pump rotor side. The casing has been cut to show the internal rotor space detail. The outlet throat, right, and spiral volute space are displayed in this view as is the central LOX inlet. The web with the self-purge passageway can be seen on the outside center of the inlet throat, and connecting to the volute casing. The web or buttress seen to the upper right is to provide additional support between the structures whilst keeping the casting to an even density. 3D model Ray Matter
