Double Volute Pump

I had a question regarding Double Volute Pumps and found some excellent references on the web:

1) http://www.pump-zone.com/articles/68.pdf

2) http://www.eng-tips.com/viewthread.cfm?qid=142821&page=8

3) http://www.mcnallyinstitute.com/14-html/14-06.htm

4) http://www.engineersedge.com/pumps/centrifugal_pump.htm

One line summary : Consider Double Volute design if the pump has to operate away from its BEP for most of the time, it will eliminate most of the radial thrust due to such operation.
