What is a Water Pump : Types & Their Working

December 19, 2020 By Wat Electrical

Solar Water Pump

In before the discovery of internal combustion engines, these water pumps were invented. At that time itself, the water pumps were utilized for multiple purposes, while the quick forerunner of the contemporary water pump was implemented for the purpose of water circulation in steam engines. As there are few drawbacks in the internal combustion engines such as more water necessity, water pumps are more preferred as they have minimal water loss. So, this is … [Read more...]

What is Peristaltic Pump : Working Principle & Its Applications

June 17, 2020 By Wat Electrical

Peristallic Pump

A peristaltic pump is one of the most frequently used pumps for transferring liquids from one point to another. Mostly it is used in medical applications and laboratory applications. In medical applications like dialysis, it proves very useful to transfer blood from one part to another part. The best thing in this pump is the liquid to be transferred does not comes in contact with the pump. It remains in the pipe which is used to carry or transfer the … [Read more...]

What is a Vacuum Pump : Working Principle & Applications

April 30, 2020 By Wat Electrical

Vacuum Pump

Vacuum pumps are extensively used in refrigeration, air conditioning, etc. systems. They are used to remove air, non-condensable items such as water from a system. Removal of water in the system makes the refrigeration effective since the presence of water would corrode the internal parts of the system and cause inefficiency. The removal of water needs a vacuum pump to be operated. Similarly, it plays a major role in air conditioning systems also. Removal … [Read more...]

What is Monoblock Pump : Working and Types

April 27, 2020 By Wat Electrical

Monoblock Pump Design

Well, we all know that pumps are the instruments to create a movement in the fluids through some sort of mechanical activity. And depending on the mechanical action, pumps have many classifications like velocity, gravity, steam, and valveless pumps. So, today we are going to have our discussion on one of the specific kinds of the pump and it is  “Monoblock Pump”. This kind of pump also holds various benefits to be implemented in irrigation, construction … [Read more...]

What is a Screw Pump : Working Principle, Types and Benefits

March 11, 2020 By Wat Electrical

Screw Pump

When compared to centrifugal pumps, positive displacement pumps are the most effective ones and screw pumps come under this classification. It came to know that conventional kinds of screw pumps were in availability in the ancient period itself. Then after the screw pump was pioneered by Archimedes. The pumps that were invented initially consists of a cylinder, a revolving unit, and a spiral tube. With the advancements in technology, the operating … [Read more...]

What is a Gear Pump : Design, Working Principle and Types

March 9, 2020 By Wat Electrical

Gear Pump

Pumping industry became extensively prominent from 1982 itself and there onwards there have been multiple enhancements and inventions. One of the developments which stood as the great invention is positive displacement pumps and their types. Enhanced environmental knowledge gave a real development to pumps having no shaft seals. The trend of electronics and computers even entered into the scope of pumps in the aspect of variable speed drives. Pump choosing … [Read more...]

What is a Diaphragm Pump : Working Principle & Its Applications

February 28, 2020 By Wat Electrical

Diaphragm Pump

Pumps have a long period of history and they were into existence from 2000 B.C. To fetch water, the initial tool that was invented was called shadoof. Even it does not function in the mechanical approach, it was widely accepted by many and best serves the pumping activity. The construction of all these stood as the basis for the development of diaphragm pumps and they were into the market from 1854 onwards. The basic invention of the diaphragm pump was … [Read more...]

What is a Centrifugal Pump : Types, Working and Specific Speed

February 18, 2020 By Wat Electrical

Centrifrugal-pump

Till the 17th century, there were no centrifugal pumps, but you might wonder how people used to transfer liquids. Before the invention of centrifugal pumps, there were mud lifting machines which were almost in portrayal to that of these pumps. But, few of the complications in mud lifting machines turned people’s attraction towards the implementation of centrifugal pumps. Centrifugal pumps are considered as the archetype of process pump spares applied with … [Read more...]

What is a Submersible Pump : Working & Its Applications

January 13, 2020 By Wat Electrical

Submersible-Pump

In the ancient period itself, the concept of a good pump has discovered and moved on that period, there were many progressions and changes that happened in the development of the pump’s design, construction, functioning, and others. The one kind of pump which we are going to discuss today is “Submersible Pump”. In the year 1916, Armais Sergeevich Arutunoff initially coined this pump, and the first usage was after the 1950’s only. Initially, these … [Read more...]
