  2. 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 ...

  3. Impeller - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impeller

    Several different types of pump impellers Flexible impeller of cooling system pump of an outboard engine (Coin for comparison, diameter 16.25 mm). An impeller is a rotating component of a centrifugal pump that accelerates fluid outward from the center of rotation, thus transferring energy from the motor that drives the pump to the fluid being pumped.

  4. Centrifugal compressor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_compressor

    The simplest inlet to a centrifugal compressor is typically a simple pipe. Depending upon its use/application inlets can be very complex. They may include other components such as an inlet throttle valve, a shrouded port, an annular duct (see Figure 1.1), a bifurcated duct, stationary guide vanes/airfoils used to straight or swirl flow (see Figure 1.1), movable guide vanes (used to vary pre ...

  5. Pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump

    Pump. 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 energy. Mechanical pumps serve in a wide range of ...

  6. Centrifugal pump selection and characteristics - Wikipedia

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

    Centrifugal pump selection and characteristics. The basic function of a pump is to do work on a liquid. It can be used to transport and compress a liquid. In industries heavy-duty pumps are used to move water, chemicals, slurry, food, oil and so on. Depending on their action, pumps are classified into two types — Centrifugal Pumps and ...

  7. Component parts of internal combustion engines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Component_parts_of...

    In liquid rocket engines, the oxidiser comes in the form of a liquid and needs to be delivered at high pressure (typically 10-230 bar or 1–23 MPa) to the combustion chamber. This is normally achieved by the use of a centrifugal pump powered by a gas turbine — a configuration known as a turbopump, but it can also be pressure fed.

  8. Turbopump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbopump

    Turbopump. A turbopump is a propellant pump with two main components: a rotodynamic pump and a driving gas turbine, usually both mounted on the same shaft, or sometimes geared together. They were initially developed in Germany in the early 1940s. The purpose of a turbopump is to produce a high-pressure fluid for feeding a combustion chamber or ...

  9. Components of jet engines - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Components_of_jet_engines

    Components of jet engines. Diagram of a typical gas turbine jet engine. Air is compressed by the compressor blades as it enters the engine, and it is mixed and burned with fuel in the combustion section. The hot exhaust gases provide forward thrust and turn the turbines which drive the compressor blades. 1.
