Pump
A pump is a device used to move fluids,
such as liquids, gases or slurries. It
increases the mechanical energy of the
fluid. The additional energy can be used to
increase -

Positive Displacement
Pump
Positive Displacement pumps apply pressure
directly to the liquid by a reciprocating
piston, or by rotating members.
Uses:
1.can handle shear sensitive liquid.
2.Use for high pressure application
3.Use for variable viscosity applications.
Types-
Reciprocating pump
Rotary pump
Reciprocating Pump
In Reciprocating pumps, the chamber is a
stationary cylinder that contains a piston
or plunger.
Types-

Screw Pump
Use:
1.Centrifugal pumps are generally used where high
flow rates and moderate head increases are
required.
2.Can handle fluids containing
suspended solids
Centrifugal Pumps
How do they work?
• Liquid forced into
impeller
• Vanes pass kinetic
energy to liquid: liquid
rotates and leaves
impeller
• Volute casing converts
kinetic energy into
pressure energy

Head: The term head is used to measure the kinetic

Pumps do not SUCK.
Static
Head
Providing the Static Head is less
Ambient than the Ambient Pressure Head
Pressure then the pump can (theoretically)
lower the pressure sufficiently for
the fluid to enter
The Static Head is Positive if the level of the fluid is above the pump
Suction Head
NPSHA NPSH
Otherwise (if NPSHA < NPSHpump), the pressure at
the pump inlet will drop to that of the vapor
pressure of the fluid being moved and the fluid will
boil.
The resulting gas bubbles will collapse inside the
pump as the pressure rises again. These
implosions occur at the impeller and can lead to
pump damage and Cavitation
decreased efficiency.
