Abstract
The method and apparatus include that the rear vanes (11) of the pump or the members operating therewith are arranged so that they either direct the flow of the medium, generated by the combined effect of forces with different directions and different intensities directed at the medium in the space behind the impeller in the vane gaps of said rear vanes, past gas discharge opening (12) in the rear wall of the pump or they slow down said flow so that its extension to said gas discharge opening (12) is prevented.
