The document discusses pumps and provides classifications and terminology. It defines a pump as a mechanical device that conveys liquid from one place to another by converting mechanical energy into hydraulic energy. Pumps are classified into positive displacement pumps, which include piston, plunger, diaphragm, reciprocating, gear, lobe, screw and cam pumps, and rotary pumps, which include centrifugal pumps. Terminology discussed includes head, suction head, delivery head, velocity head, static head, water power, shaft power, and efficiency. Reciprocating pumps are described as positive displacement pumps that use moving mechanical elements to physically displace and force out liquid. Reciprocating pumps are classified as single acting, which uses one suction and

2. WHAT IS THE PUMP?
• The pump is a mechanical device which conveys Liquid from one
place to another place.
• It can be defined as a hydraulic machines which Converts the
mechanical energy into hydraulicEnergy.
• The purpose of pump may be increasing the pressure ,they are
used for various applications in various filed.

4. TERMINOLOGY OF PUMPS
(1)Head: In the pumps, different forms of energy are expressed in terms of height which
is called ‘head’.
(2)Suction Head: It is the vertical height of the centre line of pump shaft above the
liquid.
(3)Delivery Head: its measured from centre line of pump shaft to where the liquid is
delivered.
(4)Velocity Head: which delivered liquid to end.
(5)Static Head: It is sum of suction and delivery heads.
hst= hs + hd

5. (6)Water Power: It is the power required by pump to handle the liquid to
develop manometric head.
Pw = ρgQHm
(7)Shaft Power: It is the power input to shaft of the pump by motor.
(8)Efficiency of pump: It is the ratio of water power To shaft power.

6. RECIPROCATING PUMP
• Pumps are used to increase the energy level of water by virtue of
which it can be raised to a higher level.
• Reciprocating pumps are positive displacement pump, i.e.
initially, a small quantity of liquid is taken into a chamber and is
physically displaced and forced out with pressure by a moving
mechanical elements.
• The use of reciprocating pumps is being limited these days and
being replaced by centrifugal pumps.

7. • According to use of piston sides
– Single acting Reciprocating Pump: If there is only one suction
and one delivery pipe and the liquid is filled only on one side of the
piston, it is called a single-acting reciprocating pump.
–Double acting Reciprocating Pump: A double-acting reciprocating
pump has two suction and two delivery pipes, Liquid is receiving on
both sides of the piston in the cylinder and is delivered into the
respective delivery pipes.
