The impact of jet experiment is to demonstrate and verify the integral momentum equation.[1]. In lay man terms‚ it’s another way to understand fluid pressure by using the pressure to accelerate the fluid to a plate by a high velocity in a jet which in result will generate force due to impulse. The graph will show forces against momentum with different design plates. This experiment helps us to understand about fluid pressure also gives us a better understanding about fluid related machines.

Reliability Issues – Centrifugal Slurry Pumps Introduction Pumps were probably the first machine ever developed‚ and are now the second most common machine in use around the world‚ out-numbered only by the electric motor. The very earliest type of pump is now known as a water wheel‚ Persian wheel or “noria”‚ consisting of a wheel of buckets that rotates to pick up water from a stream and dump it into a trough. Another early pump was the “Archimedean screw”‚ similar to the modern screw conveyor

Heat Pump ------------------------------------------------- A heat pump can provide an alternative to using your air conditioner. * Heat pumps can supply heat‚ cooling‚ and hot water. * Your climate and site will determine the type of heat pump most appropriate for your home. For climates with moderate heating and cooling needs‚ heat pumps offer an energy-efficient alternative to furnaces and air conditioners. Like your refrigerator‚ heat pumps use electricity to move heat from a

Heat pump From Wikipedia‚ the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation‚ search For theoretical background‚ see Heat pump and refrigeration cycle. Outdoor components of a residential air-source heat pump A heat pump is a machine or device that transfers thermal energy from one location‚ called the "source‚" which is at a lower temperature‚ to another location called the "sink" or "heat sink"‚ which is at a higher temperature. Thus‚ heat pumps moves thermal energy opposite to the direction that

Submersible Pump Application The system consists of a submersible pump controlled by a Danfoss VLT AQUA Drive and a pressure transmitter. The transmitter gives a 4-20 mA feedback signal to the VLT AQUA Drive‚ which keeps a constant pressure by controlling the speed of the pump. To design a drive for a submersible pump application‚ there are a few important issues to take into consideration. Therefore the drive used must be chosen according to motor current. 1. The motor is a so called “Can motor”

Comparison of different types of blood pumps Nowadays‚ there are two main types of blood pumps: kinetic pumps and positive displacement pumps. Kinetic pumps: Centrifugal pump is one of the most familiar kinetic pumps. A centrifugal pump converts the input power to kinetic energy in the liquid by accelerating the liquid by a revolving device - an impeller. The most common type is the volute pump. Fluid enters the pump through the eye of the impeller which rotates at high speed. The fluid is accelerated
