Types and Classifications of Pumps by charmaine fos is a document available to read on EtoBox.
Pumps are machines used to transfer fluids from areas of low pressure to higher pressure. There are two main types of pumps: dynamic (centrifugal) pumps and positive displacement pumps. Dynamic pumps work by creating pressure and moving fluid through velocity, while positive displacement pumps work by trapping and forcing set amounts of fluid. Common applications of pumps include water supply, fuel supply, air conditioning, refrigeration, chemical transfer, sewage, and marine vessels.
