2. Centrifugal pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_pump

   Centrifugal pumps with an internal suction stage such as water-jet pumps or side-channel pumps are also classified as self-priming pumps. [10] Self-Priming centrifugal pumps were invented in 1935. One of the first companies to market a self-priming centrifugal pump was American Marsh in 1938. [citation needed]

3. Net positive suction head - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_positive_suction_head

   The Required NPSH (NPSH R): the head value at the suction side (e.g. the inlet of a pump) required to keep the fluid away from cavitating (provided by the manufacturer). NPSH is particularly relevant inside centrifugal pumps and turbines, which are parts of a hydraulic system

4. Centrifugal pump selection and characteristics - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_pump_selection...

   While centrifugal pumps impart momentum to the fluid by motion of blades, positive displacement pumps transfer fluid by variation in the size of the pump’s chamber. Centrifugal pumps can be of rotor or propeller types, whereas positive displacement pumps may be gear-based, piston-based, diaphragm-based, etc. As a general rule, centrifugal ...

   hydraulic fluid machinery (≈ incompressible fluids) centrifugal pumps turbopumps and fans: fluid couplings and clutches (hydrodynamic gearbox); Voith turbo-transmissions; pump-turbines (in pumped-storage hydroelectricity) water turbines: thermal turbomachinery (compressible fluid) compressors: gas turbines (inlet consists of a compressor ...

6. Hydraulic pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_pump

   Fluid flow in an external gear 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 ...

7. Mud pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mud_pump

   A mud pump is composed of many parts including mud pump liner, mud pump piston, modules, hydraulic seat pullers, and other parts. Parts of a mud pump: housing itself, liner with packing, cover plus packing, piston and piston rod, suction valve and discharge valve with their seats, stuffing box (only in double-acting pumps),
