2. Pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 such as pumping water from wells ...

3. 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 ...

4. Centrifugal pump selection and characteristics - Wikipedia

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

   Depending on their action, pumps are classified into two types — Centrifugal Pumps and Positive Displacement Pumps. 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 ...

5. Heat pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_pump

   e. A heat pump is a device that consumes work (or 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 (e.g ...

6. Progressing cavity pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Progressing_cavity_pump

   Progressing cavity pump. A progressing cavity pump is a type of positive displacement pump and is also known as a progressive cavity pump, progg cavity pump, eccentric screw pump or cavity pump. It transfers fluid by means of the progress, through the pump, of a sequence of small, fixed shape, discrete cavities, as its rotor is turned.

7. Heat-transfer fluid - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat-transfer_fluid

   Heat-transfer fluid. In fluid thermodynamics, a heat transfer fluid is a gas or liquid that takes part in heat transfer by serving as an intermediary in cooling on one side of a process, transporting and storing thermal energy, and heating on another side of a process. Heat transfer fluids are used in countless applications and industrial ...
