2. Stopcock - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stopcock

   The stopcock is a smooth tampered plug or rotor with a handle, which fits into a corresponding ground glass female joint. The stationary female joint is designed such that it joins two or more pieces of glass tubing. The stopcock has holes bored through it which allow the tubes attached to the female joint to be connected or separated with ...

3. Norias of Hama - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norias_of_Hama

   But on some they are more widely spaced, for instance one box between every five paddles. In water-bearing capacity, across different norias the boxes range from 4 to 12 litres (1 to 3 US gallons). [10] The water delivery of Hama's norias ranges between 50,000 and 200,000 litres per hour, depending on a noria's size (13,200 to 52,800 US gallons ...

4. Hand pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_pump

   Hand pump. Animation of a suction hand pump. On the up stroke of the piston the foot valve opens and suction brings water into the pump head. On the following down stroke of the piston the valve on the piston opens up and allows water to flow above the piston. On the successive up stroke of the piston water is pushed out of the outlet.

6. Piston pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piston_pump

   Piston pump compared to a plunger pump. A piston pump is a type of positive displacement pump where the high-pressure seal reciprocates with the piston. [1] Piston pumps can be used to move liquids or compress gases. They can operate over a wide range of pressures. High pressure operation can be achieved without adversely affecting flow rate.

7. 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 ...
