RECIPROCATING PUMP CLICK HERE👉 Animated working of Reciprocating Pump Pumps :- Pumps are defined as hydraulic machines which convert the mechanical energy into hydraulic energy which is mainly in the form of pressure energy. A pump is a machine for transmitting energy to fluids generally for the purpose of driving it from one place to another or to lift it from a low level to a higher level. The external force may be provided by the operators own efforts or by coupling the pump to a suitable engine or motor. Reciprocating Pump. If the mechanical energy is converted into hydraulic energy (for pressure energy) by sucking the liquid into a cylinder in which a piston is reciprocating (moving backwards and forwards), the pump is known as Reciprocating Pump. The reciprocating pump is a positive displacement pumps as it sucks and rises the liquid by actually displacing it with a piston/plunger that executes a reciprocating motion in a closely fitting ...
