    These are utility program that IBM documents in service aids or diagnosis [6] manuals. The original OS/360 Service aids had names beginning with IFC and IM*, but IBM changed the naming convention to HM* for OS/VS1 and to AM* for OS/VS2. IBM did not change the IFC convention.

  3. Pumping station - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pumping_station

    A four pole or six pole AC induction motor normally drives the pump. Rather than provide large open passages, some pumps, typically smaller sewage pumps, also macerate any solids within the sewage breaking them down into smaller parts which can more easily pass through the impeller. The interior of a sewage pump station is a very dangerous place.

    In parts of Britain and Ireland, it was often called the parish pump. Though such community pumps are no longer common, people still used the expression parish pump to describe a place or forum where matters of local interest are discussed. [3] Because water from pitcher pumps is drawn directly from the soil, it is more prone to contamination.

  5. Gas lift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_lift

    A gas lift or bubble pump is a type of pump that can raise fluid between elevations by introducing gas bubbles into a vertical outlet tube; as the bubbles rise within the tube they cause a drop in the hydrostatic pressure behind them, causing the fluid to be pulled up.

  6. Volute (pump) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volute_(pump)

    Pump and volute casing. A volute is a curved funnel that increases in area as it approaches the discharge port. [1] The volute of a centrifugal pump is the casing that receives the fluid being pumped by the impeller, maintaining the velocity of the fluid through to the diffuser. As liquid exits the impeller it has high kinetic energy and the ...

  7. Mud pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mud_pump

    A mud pump (sometimes referred to as a mud drilling pump or drilling mud pump), is a reciprocating piston/plunger pump designed to circulate drilling fluid under high pressure (up to 7,500 psi or 52,000 kPa) down the drill string and back up the annulus. A mud pump is an important part of the equipment used for oil well drilling.

    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 or pneumatic energy.

  9. Oil pump (internal combustion engine) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oil_pump_(internal...

    Electric pump as a main engine pump again will require big electric motors and it may be simply cheaper to drive directly from the engine. For e.g. BMW S65 engine's oil pump delivers ca. 45 LPM (Litres Per Minute) of oil at 5.5 bar pressure. [5] This pump would require a significantly large motor to drive.
