The peculiarities in current and kinematics of hydromechanical processes in centrifugal (rotary) pumps are considered. The theoretical description and graphical presentation of velocity profiles in an impeller are shown. A complex current in an impeller is described with the aid of a continuity equation and Navier-Stokes equation for rotating coordinates. A nonviscous character of fluid flow in the setting of an im-peller is taken into account by means of averaging of the equation of motion for that purpose the equation of a turbulence model is introduced in addition. The scheme of the digitization of a modeling area with the aid of a volumetric endelement grid is presented. As an example a computer model as a part of an impeller is shown.
