PUMPS
• A pump is a mechanical appliance used to increase the
pressure energy of a liquid, in order to lift it from a lower
to a higher level.
• This is usually achieved by creating a low pressure at inlet and a
high pressure at the outlet ends of the pump.
• Thus, the principle of working of a pump is distinctly different from
the indigenous water lifts in which water is lifted by displacement
through buckets, water wheels or screws.
• Two basic groups of pumps 1. Positive displacement pumps 2.
Variable-displacement pumps
PUMPSPumps have two main purposes:
1. Transfer of liquid from one place to another place (e.g. water from an
underground aquifer into a water storage tank)
2. Circulate liquid around a system (e.g. cooling water or lubricants through
machines and equipment)
• PUMPS
• PRIME MOVERS: Electric motors, diesel engines or air
system
• PIPING: Used to carry the fluid
• VALVES: Used to control the flow in the system
• OTHER FITTINGS: Controls and instrumentation
• END-USE EQUIPMENT: Which have different
requirements and therefore determine the pumping
system components and configuration. Examples include
heat exchangers, tanks and hydraulic machines.
The pump and the prime mover are typically the most
energy inefficient components.
THE MAIN COMPONENTS OF A PUMPING SYSTEM
TUBE WELLS
A WELL is a hole dug in the ground to obtain the subsoil water.
A tube well is a type of water well in which a long 100–200 mm
(4 to 8 inch) wide stainless steel tube or pipe is bored into an
underground aquifer. The lower end is fitted with a strainer, and
a pump at the top lifts water for irrigation. The required depth of
the well depends on the depth of the water table.
• YIELD FROM STANDARD TUBE WELL 40-45 L/S.
• SHALLOW TUBE WELLS : 30-60M DEPTH, 20 L/S YIELD
• DEEP TUBE WELLS : 60-300 M DEPTH, YIELD 200 L/S
