2. Gear pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gear_pump

   Gear pumps are also widely used in chemical installations to pump high-viscosity fluids. There are two main variations: external gear pumps which use two external spur gears, and internal gear pumps which use an external and an internal spur gear (internal spur gear teeth face inwards, see below). Gear pumps provide positive displacement (or ...

3. Gerotor - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gerotor

   A gerotor / dʒ ə ˈ r oʊ t ə r / is a positive displacement pump. The name gerotor is derived from "generated rotor." A gerotor unit consists of an inner and an outer rotor. The inner rotor has n teeth, while the outer rotor has n + 1 teeth, with n defined as a natural number greater than or equal to 2. The axis of the inner rotor is offset ...

4. Pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump

   A positive-displacement pump must not operate against a closed valve on the discharge side of the pump, because it has no shutoff head like centrifugal pumps. A positive-displacement pump operating against a closed discharge valve continues to produce flow and the pressure in the discharge line increases until the line bursts, the pump is ...

5. Hydraulic pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_pump

   Fixed displacement vane pump. A rotary vane pump is a positive-displacement pump that consists of vanes mounted to a rotor that rotates inside a cavity. In some cases these vanes can have variable length and/or be tensioned to maintain contact with the walls as the pump rotates.

7. Lobe pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lobe_pump

   A lobe pump, or rotary lobe pump, is a type of positive displacement pump. It is similar to a gear pump except the lobes are designed to almost meet, rather than touch and turn each other. An early example of a lobe pump is the Roots Blower , patented in 1860 [ 1 ] to blow combustion air to melt iron in blast furnaces, but now more commonly ...
