Mechanical The various types of pumps used in various industries and their
engineering
advantages
Centrifugal and axial flow pumps are very common hydraulic pumps. Both
work on the principle that the energy of the liquid is increased by imparting
kinetic energy to it as it flows through the pump. This energy is supplied by the
impeller, which is driven by an electric motor or some other drive.
The various components of centrifugal pumps are shown in the below figure:

There are various applications of centrifugal pumps. The common practical


applications of pumps are discussed below:

1. Pulp and Paper industry


2. Nuclear power industry
3. Petroleum industry
4. Hydrocarbon processing industry
5. Copper refining applications
6. General pumping system
