2. 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 ...

3. Water pumping - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_pumping

   Due to the rotation, water is then picked up by the tube and pumped upwards in the hose. The coil pump, as many low lift pumps, is commonly used for irrigation purposes and for drainage of lands. It is currently still used by farmers in Asia. [1] The coil pump was built as an alternative to the Archimedean screw. Unlike the Archimedean screw ...

4. Centrifugal pump - Wikipedia

   Also, the dimensions of the separating chamber are relatively large. For these reasons this solution is only adopted for small pumps, e.g. garden pumps. More frequently used types of self-priming pumps are side-channel and water-ring pumps. Another type of self-priming pump is a centrifugal pump with two casing chambers and an open impeller.

5. Hand pump - Wikipedia

   Irrigation is under way by pump-enabled extraction directly from the Gumti, seen in the background, in Comilla, Bangladesh. One sort of pump once common worldwide was a hand-powered water pump, or 'pitcher pump'. It was commonly installed over community water wells in the days before piped water supplies.

6. Slurry pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slurry_pump

   The self-priming pump draws the slurry to the pump then discharges the material from there. Flooded Suction The flooded suction slurry pump is connected to a tank or hopper and uses gravity to move slurry and liquid from the enclosure. Located at the bottom or below the water, the pump uses the force of gravity to continuously fill the pump and ...

7. Hydraulic ram - Wikipedia

   The first self-acting ram pump was invented by the Frenchman Joseph Michel Montgolfier (best known as a co-inventor of the hot air balloon) in 1796 for raising water in his paper mill at Voiron. [3] His friend Matthew Boulton took out a British patent on his behalf in 1797. [4]
