Specific Pump Power (SPP) is a metric in fluid dynamics that quantifies the energy-efficiency of pump systems. It is a measure of the electric power that is needed to operate a pump (or collection of pumps), relative to the volume flow rate. It is not constant for a given pump, but changes with both flow rate and pump pressure.
The Pulsometer steam pump is a pistonless pump which was patented in 1872 [2] by American Charles Henry Hall. In 1875 a British engineer bought the patent rights of the Pulsometer [3] and it was introduced to the market soon thereafter. The invention was inspired by the Savery steam pump invented by Thomas Savery.
The foundations of Kirloskar Brothers Limited, the flagship company of the Kirloskar Group, were established in 1888 by Laxmanrao Kirloskar and his partner Ramuanna. [6] At the end of the 19th century, Laxmanrao worked with his brother, Ramuanna Kirloskar, to buy bicycles in Bombay and sell them in Belgaum, supplementing their income with bicycle lessons.
A pulser pump makes use of water that flows through pipes and an air chamber from an upper reservoir to a lower reservoir. The intake is a trompe, which uses water flow to pump air to a separation chamber; air trapped in the chamber then drives an airlift pump. The top of the pipe that connects the upper reservoir to the air chamber is ...
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.
An accelerator pump is either remotely mounted or mounted on the carburetor body. The accelerator pump is either mechanically connected to the throttle, or it is operated by sensing the manifold pressure change when the throttle is opened. Either way, it injects a measured amount of extra fuel into the air stream to allow smooth engine ...

The power needed from the drive is proportional to the pressure and capacity of the pump. [1] Seals are an integral part of piston pumps and plunger pumps to separate the power fluid from the medium that is being pumped. A stuffing box or packing is used to seal the joint between the vessel where the medium is transferred and the plunger or ...
