Zusammenfassung:A water pump ( 10 ) and impeller ( 30 ) for use in applications such as internal combustion engines. A plurality of holes ( 40, 44 ) are formed near the hub and periphery of the impeller ( 30 ) of the water pump to provide coolant flow through a cavity ( 22 ) housing a seal. The seal ( 18 ) is thereby cooled to prevent premature failure of the seal ( 18 ) due to overheating.
