The Classification of centrifugal pumps based on Specific speed:
Up to 80 - Radial flow pump (10-30=slow, 30-50=medium,50-80=high).
80 to 160 - Mixed flow pump.
160 to 500 - Axial flow pump.

A centrifugal pump is impeller rotate outer periphery with high pressure and velocity, collected in the casing.
As the area increases gradually increase the casing is the direction of flow in the flow is axial.
