PUMPING THEORY
The electric motor converts EE into ME which is used to drive the shaft of the pump. Then the pump converts the ME into HE by creating a partial vacuum at the inlet, which induces the atmospheric pressure to force the fluid through the inlet line. Then the internal design of the pump mechanically pushes the fluid to the outlet line
Classification of pump
In rotodynamic or dynamic pressure pumps the liquid is subjected to whirling motion by an impeller (a rotating disc having a finite number of blades similar to the runner of a turbine) and the gain in the kinetic energy of the liquid is converted into the pressure energy inside the pump.
