  2. Centrifugal pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_pump

    Magnetically coupled pumps, or magnetic drive pumps, vary from the traditional pumping style, as the motor is coupled to the pump by magnetic means rather than by a direct mechanical shaft. The pump works via a drive magnet, 'driving' the pump rotor, which is magnetically coupled to the primary shaft driven by the motor. [8]

  3. Axial-flow pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axial-flow_pump

    An axial-flow pump for industrial use. An axial-flow pump, or AFP, is a common type of pump that essentially consists of a propeller (an axial impeller) in a pipe.The propeller can be driven directly by a sealed motor in the pipe or by electric motor or petrol/diesel engines mounted to the pipe from the outside or by a right-angle drive shaft that pierces the pipe.

  4. Comparison of pumps - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_pumps

    Different types of pumps are suitable for different applications, for example: a pump's maximum lift height also determines the applications it can be used for. Low-lift pumps are only suitable for the pumping of surface water (e.g., irrigation, drainage of lands, ...), while high-lift pumps allow deep water pumping (e.g., potable water pumping ...

  5. Submersible pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Submersible_pump

    A 0.75 HP bore-well submersible pump which had been used to pump groundwater One style of submersible pump for industrial use. Outlet pipe and electrical cable not connected. A submersible pump (or electric submersible pump (ESP) is a device which has a hermetically sealed motor close-coupled to the pump body. The whole assembly is submerged in ...

    This system creates an additional overhead of 12% of initial energy consumption. This is a vast improvement from traditional active cooling units which have an overhead of 30-70%. [ 6 ] However, this novel and complicated method requires careful and expensive planning from mechanical engineers, who must work closely with the engineers designing ...

  7. Hydraulic pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_pump

    When a hydraulic pump operates, it creates a vacuum at the pump inlet, which forces liquid from the reservoir into the inlet line to the pump and by mechanical action delivers this liquid to the pump outlet and forces it into the hydraulic system. Hydrostatic pumps are positive displacement pumps while hydrodynamic pumps can be fixed ...

  8. Pump as turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump_As_Turbine

    Conversely, a double flow radially split pump/PAT design involves a single radial open rotor fed by two symmetric inlets and enable processing a higher flow rate with respect to a standard radial unit. [9] A second type of pump/PAT design is the axial one, in which the fluid interacts with a propeller following a trajectory parallel to the pump ...
