  2. Centrifugal pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_pump

    Warman centrifugal pump in a coal preparation plant application. A pair of centrifugal pumps for circulating hot water within a hydronic heating system. Centrifugal pumps are used to transport fluids by the conversion of rotational kinetic energy to the hydrodynamic energy of the fluid flow. The rotational energy typically comes from an engine ...

  3. Pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump

    Pump. A small, electrically powered pump. A large, electrically driven pump for waterworks near the Hengsteysee, Germany. A pump is a device that moves fluids ( liquids or gases ), or sometimes slurries, [ 1] by mechanical action, typically converted from electrical energy into hydraulic energy. Mechanical pumps serve in a wide range of ...

  4. Submersible pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submersible_pump

    A submersible pump (or electric submersible pump ( ESP) is a device which has a hermetically sealed motor close-coupled to the pump body. The whole assembly is submerged in the fluid to be pumped. The main advantage of this type of pump is that it prevents pump cavitation, a problem associated with a high elevation difference between the pump ...

  5. Impeller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impeller

    Impeller. Impeller from a three-stage air compressor. An impeller, or impellor, [ 1] is a driven rotor used to increase the pressure and flow of a fluid. It is the opposite of a turbine, which extracts energy from, and reduces the pressure of, a flowing fluid. Strictly speaking, propellers are a sub-class of impellers where the flow both enters ...

  6. Hand pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_pump

    Hand pump. Animation of a suction hand pump. On the up stroke of the piston the foot valve opens and suction brings water into the pump head. On the following down stroke of the piston the valve on the piston opens up and allows water to flow above the piston. On the successive up stroke of the piston water is pushed out of the outlet.

  7. Piston pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piston_pump

    Piston pump compared to a plunger pump. A piston pump is a type of positive displacement pump where the high-pressure seal reciprocates with the piston. [ 1] Piston pumps can be used to move liquids or compress gases. They can operate over a wide range of pressures. High pressure operation can be achieved without adversely affecting flow rate.

  8. Hydraulic pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_pump

    A hydraulic pump is a mechanical source of power that converts mechanical power into hydraulic energy ( hydrostatic energy i.e. flow, pressure). Hydraulic pumps are used in hydraulic drive systems and can be hydrostatic or hydrodynamic. They generate flow with enough power to overcome pressure induced by a load at the pump outlet.

  9. Axial piston pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial_piston_pump

    An axial piston pump has a number of pistons (usually an odd number) arranged in a circular array within a housing which is commonly referred to as a cylinder block, rotor or barrel. This cylinder block is driven to rotate about its axis of symmetry by an integral shaft that is, more or less, aligned with the pumping pistons (usually parallel ...
