The Mechanical Section has introduced the \"Question of the Day\" feature, which aims to foster an active atmosphere for technical exchanges and guide the direction of such discussions, while also providing users with financial rewards to help them experience various cool features. 【Daily Question】Regarding the outlet valve of a centrifugal pump, which of the following statements is correct? ( ) A. For a centrifugal pump that is in operation, the outlet valve can be kept closed for an extended period of time ; B. For centrifugal pumps in operation, the outlet valve should not be kept closed for long periods, as this can cause pressure buildup. C. For centrifugal pumps in operation, the outlet valve should not be kept closed for long periods, as this can cause vibration in the unit ; D. For centrifugal pumps in operation, the outlet valve should not be kept closed for long periods, as this will cause the pump to overheat ; Answer: D. However, due to the imprecise wording of this question, strictly speaking both B and C are possible; but the main risk is indicated by option D – the heating of the pump body, which can lead to the vaporization of the medium and pose a danger as well as cause damage to the pump system. Therefore, for this question, answering D is sufficient; it counts as correct regardless of whether BC are answered or not. Requirements and hints for answering questions: Please reply with the answer you believe to be correct. If you provide a detailed explanation or analysis of the question or answer, an additional reward will be given.

C, D. It must be correct. B represents the pressure that can be sustained, which is the maximum output pressure of the centrifugal pump; over time, this pressure can damage the seal.
