H85a - Ancillary
Gear Pump
Two gears are held in a housing with one gear being driven. The fluid is trapped by the gear teeth and the housing and gears rotate. The fluid is then discharged at the outlet. The engaged teeth of the gears create a seal preventing leakage back to the inlet.
Learning outcomes
• Understanding pump performance
• Creating characteristic curves from experimental data
• Investigating, analysing and comparing the characteristics of different pump types (if more than one pump is purchased).
