1.Introduction

The water pump, often referred to as the coolant pump, circulates liquid coolant
through the radiator and engine cooling system, and is powered by the engine itself.
It ensures that the engine temperature is maintained at a safe level while operating.
If it fails, the engine may overheat, causing serious damage if left unchecked.

Coolant pumps for machine tools application is widely used for cooling of
tools, tips, grinding wheels etc. so as to provide a better finish to the job. The
Coolant pumps helps in rotating the Coolant oil. Different capacities of coolant
pumps are manufactured as per requirement.

2.Coolant Pump
A coolant pump is a type of pump used to recirculate a coolant, generally a liquid,
that is used to transfer heat away from an engine or other device that generates heat
as a byproduct of producing energy.
Common applications of coolant pumps are:

• Coolant pump or water pump, found in most modern internal combustion

engine applications such as most fossil fuel powered vehicles
• Coolant pumps, found in pressurized water reactors, a type of light water
reactor used in the majority of Western world nuclear power plants

Radiators first used downward vertical flow, driven solely by

a thermosyphon effect. Coolant is heated in the engine, becomes less dense, and so
rises. As the radiator cools the fluid, the coolant becomes denser and falls. This
effect is sufficient for low-power stationary engines, but inadequate for all but the
earliest automobiles. All automobiles for many years have used centrifugal
pumps to circulate the engine coolant because natural circulation has very low flow
rates.

The coolant is pumped around the primary circuit by powerful pumps. These
pumps have a rate of ~100,000 gallons of coolant per minute. After picking up heat
as it passes through the reactor core, the primary coolant transfers heat in a steam
generator to water in a lower pressure secondary circuit, evaporating the secondary
coolant to saturated steam — in most designs 6.2 MPa (60 atm, 900 psia), 275 °C
(530 °F) — for use in the steam turbine. The cooled primary coolant is then
returned to the reactor vessel to be heated again.

3.Water pumping

Fig no.3.1 Interior of water pumping station

The pumping of water is a basic and practical technique, far more practical than
scooping it up with one's hands or lifting it in a hand-held bucket. This is true
whether the water is drawn from a fresh source, moved to a needed
location, purified, or used for irrigation, washing, or sewage treatment, or for
evacuating water from an undesirable location. Regardless of the outcome,
the energy required to pump water is an extremely demanding component of water
consumption. All other processes depend or benefit either from water descending
from a higher elevation or some pressurized plumbing system.
The ancient concept of the aqueduct took simple and eloquent advantage of
maintaining elevation of water for as long and far a distance as possible. Thus, as
water moves over great distances, it retains a larger component of its potential
energy by spending small portions of this energy flowing down a slight gradation.
A useful aqueduct system ultimately depends on a fresh water source existing at a
higher elevation than the location where the water can be of use. Gravity does all
the work. In all other instances, pumps are necessary.
In day-to-day situations, available water is often contaminated, unhealthy, or even
naturally poisonous, so that it is necessary to pump potable water from lower levels
to higher levels, where it can be of use. A fresh water source in a lower stream,
river, pond, or lake is often pumped to higher ground for irrigation, livestock,
cooking, cleaning or other uses by humans, who quite naturally need fresh water.
This will purify mostly fresh water, and the treatment of largely contaminated
water refer endlessly to pumping.

4.coil pump

Fig no.4.1 A coil pump

A coil pump is a low lift pump which is composed of a tube, shaped as a coil and
mounted on a rotating axle powered by an engine or an animal capable of turning
the axle around rapidly. Due to the rotation, water is then picked up by the tube
and pumped upwards in the hose. The coil pump, as many low lift pumps, is
commonly used for irrigation purposes and for drainage of lands. It is currently
still used by farmers in Asia.
The coil pump was built as an alternative to the Archimedean screw. Unlike the
Archimedean screw, it can run horizontally while the Archimedean screw is tilted
at about 30°. The coil pump, if fitted with a suitable rotating seal, can deliver water
to a greater height, typically 5-10m, above their discharge opening. Despite the
emergence of new pumps that operate on other principles, the coil pump remains
an important tool as some of it other benefits are that they can be built and repaired
easily at a very low cost. This is possible as all the components can be built from
local resources as metal; which can be obtained and cast into the desired form
easily.
However, as mentioned before, the pump only allows the lifting of water over a
small height. This makes it unsuitable for water drainage or irrigation over larger
height differences or many other pumping applications besides drainage and
irrigation.

5.spiral pump

Fig no.5.1 A spiral pump

A spiral pump , sometimes called a Wirtz pump, is a low lift pump which is
composed of a long piece of metal plating, which is wound into a coil and sealed at
the top and back extremities so as to resemble a cylinder. The outer cavity serves
as the inlet, while the inner (partial) tube serves as the outlet. A coiled plastic tube
will suffice for this arrangement. The outlet pipe is fixed to a water wheel, engine
or animal which is capable of rotating the pump quickly. Due to this rotation, water
is picked up by the outer cavity and pumped upwards in the hose.
Applications
The spiral pump, as many low lift pumps, is commonly used for irrigation purposes
and for drainage of lands. Based on the same principle as the Archimedean screw,
it consists of a rotating tube or plane (screw) to move a liquid. Unlike the
Archimedean screw, it can pump while horizontal. The Archimedean screw must
be tilted at an angle. The spiral pump, if fitted with a suitable rotating seal, can
deliver water to a greater height than the coil pump, typically 5-10m, above their
discharge opening. Its main drawback is that the output is small - an output
proportional to the volume of the largest coil being moved each revolution. Despite
the emergence of new pumps that operate on other principles, the spiral pump
remains an important tool as it can be built and repaired easily at a very low cost.
This is possible as all the components can be built from local resources such as
sheet metal bent into the desired form with or without machine tools.

6.gear pump

Fig no.6.1 An explore view of an external gear 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.
The gear pump was invented around 1600 by Johannes Kepler.
Gear pumps are also widely used in chemical installations to pump high viscosity
fluids. There are two main variations: external gear pumps which use two
external spur gears, and internal gear pumps which use an external and an internal
spur gears (internal spur gear teeth face inwards, see below). Gear pumps
are positive displacement (or fixed displacement), meaning they pump a constant
amount of fluid for each revolution. Some gear pumps are designed to function as
either a motor or a pump.
Applications

• Petrochemicals: Pure or filled bitumen, pitch, diesel oil, crude oil, lube oil
etc.
• Chemicals: Sodium silicate, acids, plastics, mixed chemicals, isocyanates
etc.
• Paint and ink.
• Resins and adhesives.
• Pulp and paper: acid, soap, lye, black liquor, kaolin, lime, latex, sludge etc.
• Food: Chocolate, cacao butter, fillers, sugar, vegetable fats and oils,
molasses, animal food etc.

7.Impulse pumps

Fig no.7.1 Impulse pumps

Impulse pumps use pressure created by gas (usually air). In some impulse pumps
the gas trapped in the liquid (usually water), is released and accumulated
somewhere in the pump, creating a pressure that can push part of the liquid
upwards.
Conventional impulse pumps include:

• Hydraulic ram pumps – kinetic energy of a low-head water supply is

stored temporarily in an air-bubble hydraulic accumulator, then used to
drive water to a higher head.
• Pulser pumps – run with natural resources, by kinetic energy only.
• Airlift pumps – run on air inserted into pipe, which pushes the water up
when bubbles move upward
Instead of a gas accumulation and releasing cycle, the pressure can be created by
burning of hydrocarbons. Such combustion driven pumps directly transmit the
impulse from a combustion event through the actuation membrane to the pump
fluid. In order to allow this direct transmission, the pump needs to be almost
entirely made of an elastomer (e.g. silicone rubber). Hence, the combustion causes
the membrane to expand and thereby pumps the fluid out of the adjacent pumping
chamber. The first combustion-driven soft pump was developed by ETH Zurich.

8.Hydraulic pumps

Fig no.8.1 Hydraulic pumps

Hydraulic pumps are used in hydraulic drive systems and can be hydrostatic or
hydrodynamic. A hydraulic pump is a mechanical source of power that converts
mechanical power into hydraulic energy (hydrostatic energy i.e. flow, pressure). It
generates flow with enough power to overcome pressure induced by the load at the
pump outlet. When a hydraulic pump operates, it creates a vacuum at the pump
inlet, which forces liquid from the reservoir into the inlet line to the pump and by
mechanical action delivers this liquid to the pump outlet and forces it into the
hydraulic system. Hydrostatic pumps are positive displacement pumps while
hydrodynamic pumps can be fixed displacement pumps, in which the displacement
(flow through the pump per rotation of the pump) cannot be adjusted, or variable
displacement pumps, which have a more complicated construction that allows the
displacement to be adjusted. Hydrodynamic pumps are more frequent in day-to-
day life. Hydrostatic pumps of various types all work on the principle of Pascal's
law.
