    Over time with the increase of pools and their complexity, the potential energy savings from residential pool pumps has become huge. [2] Residential pool pumps were first included in the 2005 Title-20 appliance standards that were adopted at the end of 2005. California has a limited ability to produce electricity.

  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. Axial piston pump - Wikipedia

    Cutaway side-view diagram of an axial piston pump 3-D rendering of an axial piston pump with the parts labeled Animation of an axial piston pump in operation. An axial piston pump has a number of pistons (usually an odd number) arranged in a circular array within a housing which is commonly referred to as a cylinder block, rotor or barrel.

  5. Hand pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hand_pump

    Another issue that faced the project was the fact that the pumps could only provide a maximum of 20 liters of water per person day, which required an unrealistic staggering of water retrieval. [20] In addition, many depots withdrew support after the donated inventory ran out, the contracts given to consultants eventually closed, and maintenance ...

  6. Gasoline pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gasoline_pump

    Light passenger vehicles pump up to about 50 litres (13 US gallons) per minute [8] (the United States limits this to 10 US gallons [38 litres] per minute [9]); pumps serving trucks and other large vehicles have a higher flow rate, up to 130 litres (34 US gallons) per minute in the UK [8] and 40 US gallons (150 litres) in the US. This flow rate ...

  7. Centrifugal pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_pump

    This pump type operates without a foot valve and without an evacuation device on the suction side. The pump has to be primed with the fluid to be handled prior to commissioning. Two-phase mixture is pumped until the suction line has been evacuated and the fluid level has been pushed into the front suction intake chamber by atmospheric pressure.

  8. Turbomolecular pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbomolecular_pump

    Most turbomolecular pumps employ multiple stages, each consisting of a quickly rotating rotor blade and stationary stator blade pair. The system is an axial compressor that puts energy into the gas, rather than a turbine, which takes energy out of a moving fluid to create rotary power, thus "turbomolecular pump" is a misnomer.

  9. 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.
