11Heat pump and refrigeration cycle — Thermodynamic heat pump and refrigeration cycles are the models for heat pumps and refrigerators. The difference between a heat pump and a normal air conditioner is that a heat pump can be used to heat a home as well as cool it. Even though the… …
12Solubility pump — In oceanic biogeochemistry, the solubility pump is a physico chemical process that transports carbon (as dissolved inorganic carbon) from the ocean s surface to its interior.OverviewThe solubility pump is driven by the coincidence of two… …
13Metering pump — A metering pump is a pump used to pump liquids at adjustable flow rates which are precise when averaged over time. Delivery of fluids in precise adjustable flow rates is sometimes called metering. The term metering pump is based on the… …
14Progressive cavity pump — A progressive cavity pump is also known as a progressing cavity pump, eccentric screw pump or even just cavity pump and, as is common in engineering generally, these pumps can often be referred to by using a genericized trademark. Hence names can …
15Condensate pump — A condensate pump is a specific type of pump used to pump the condensate (water) produced in an HVAC (heating or cooling), refrigeration, condensing boiler furnace or steam system. They may be used to pump the condensate produced from latent… …
16Diaphragm pump — schematic. A diaphragm pump is a positive displacement pump that uses a combination of the reciprocating action of a rubber, thermoplastic or teflon diaphragm and suitable non return check valves to pump a fluid. Sometimes this type of pump is… …
17Gear pump — [ Gerotor pump] A Gear pump uses the meshing of gears to pump fluid by displacement. They are one of the most common types of pumps for hydraulic fluid power applications. Gear pumps however are also widely used in chemical installations to pump… …
18Biological pump — In oceanic biogeochemistry, the biological pump is the sum of a suite of biologically mediated processes that transport carbon from the surface euphotic zone to the ocean s interior. OverviewThe organic carbon that forms the biological pump is… …
19Rotary vane pump — 1. pump housing 2. rotor 3. vanes 4. springA rotary vane pump is a positive displacement pump that consists of vanes mounted to a rotor that rotates inside of a cavity. In some cases these vanes can be variable length and/or tensioned to maintain …
20Continental shelf pump — In oceanic biogeochemistry, the continental shelf pump is proposed to operate in the shallow waters of the continental shelves, acting as a mechanism to transport carbon (as either dissolved or particulate material) from surface waters to the… …
