2. Fuel pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_pump

   A Fuel pump is a component used in many liquid-fuelled engines (such as petrol/gasoline or diesel engines) to transfer the fuel from the fuel tank to the device where it is mixed with the intake air (such as the carburetor or fuel injector). Carbureted engines often use low-pressure mechanical pumps that are mounted on the engine.

3. Aircraft fuel system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aircraft_fuel_system

   An aircraft fuel system allows the crew to pump, manage, and deliver aviation fuel to the propulsion system and auxiliary power unit (APU) of an aircraft. Fuel systems differ greatly due to different performance of the aircraft in which they are installed. A single-engine piston aircraft has a simple fuel system; a tanker (such as the KC-135 ...

   EDC pump actuator. Electro-magnetic actuators are usually located on the fuel pump to transfer electrical signals into mechanical action in this case fuel rack actuator and or fuel stop solenoid which means that depending on requests from control unit full fuel or no fuel quantity. Injectors; Boost-pressure actuator; Intake-duct switchoff

5. Pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 applications ...

6. Heat pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_pump

   A heat pump is a device that consumes energy (usually electricity) to transfer heat from a cold heat sink to a hot heat sink. Specifically, the heat pump transfers thermal energy using a refrigeration cycle, cooling the cool space and warming the warm space. [1] In cold weather, a heat pump can move heat from the cool outdoors to warm a house ...

7. Electric-pump-fed engine - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric-pump-fed_engine

   The electric-pump-fed engine is a bipropellant rocket engine in which the fuel pumps are electrically powered, and so all of the input propellant is directly burned in the main combustion chamber, and none is diverted to drive the pumps. This differs from traditional rocket engine designs, in which the pumps are driven by a portion of the input ...
