Micro Project Report On:

“Prepare Models On Lobe and

Gear Pump”

1.0 Rationale:
A gear pump is a type of positive displacement (PD) pump. It moves a fluid by repeatedly enclosing a
fixed volume using interlocking cogs or gears, transferring it mechanically using a cyclic pumping
action. It delivers a smooth pulse-free flow proportional to the rotational speed of its gears.

2.0 Aims/Benefits of the Micro Project:

1. Understanding lobe and gear pump

2. Learning about their working and applications

3.0 Course Outcomes Addressed:

C22650.c.evaluate capacities of simple hydraulic and other pumping devices

 7.0 Outputs of the Micro project:

LOBE PUMP:

1. Working Principle: Lobe pumps operate based on the principle of positive

displacement, where fluid is trapped between rotating lobes and the pump casing,
creating a pumping action. The lobes, usually two or more, rotate within the pump
casing, creating chambers that expand and contract as the lobes rotate. This expansion
and contraction cause the fluid to be drawn into the pump through the inlet port and
expelled through the outlet port as the lobes continue to rotate.

2. Construction: Lobe pumps consist of several key components, including the pump
casing, lobes (also known as rotors or gears), shafts, bearings, and seals. The lobes are
typically constructed from materials such as stainless steel or cast iron and are mounted
on parallel shafts within the casing. The lobes can have various shapes, such as rotary,
helical, or bi-wing, depending on the specific design requirements. The casing contains
inlet and outlet ports, and the lobes are precisely synchronized to prevent contact and
ensure smooth operation.
3. Applications: Lobe pumps are highly versatile and find applications in a wide range of
industries. Due to their gentle pumping action, lobe pumps are particularly well-suited
for handling viscous fluids, slurries, and delicate solids. They are commonly used in
industries such as food and beverage (for pumping dairy products, sauces, and
cosmetics), pharmaceuticals (for handling medications and creams), chemicals (for
transferring various fluids), and wastewater treatment (for pumping sludge and
effluent).
GEAR PUMP:

1. Working Principle: Gear pumps operate based on the meshing of gears within a pump casing
to create a pumping action. In a gear pump, two or more gears (usually spur gears) rotate within
a casing, creating chambers between the gear teeth and the casing walls. As the gears rotate, fluid
is drawn into these chambers through the pump inlet and expelled through the outlet as the gears
continue to rotate.

2. Construction: Gear pumps are comprised of several essential components, including the
pump casing, gears, shafts, bearings, and seals. The gears are typically constructed from
materials such as steel, cast iron, or bronze and are precisely machined to ensure close tolerances.
Gear pumps may have external or internal gear configurations, depending on the design. In
external gear pumps, the gears are mounted externally, while in internal gear pumps, one gear is
mounted inside the other. The casing contains inlet and outlet ports, and the gears mesh together
to create the pumping action.

3. Applications: Gear pumps are widely used across various industries for pumping fluids with
low to medium viscosity. They are particularly suitable for applications requiring a consistent
flow rate and relatively high pressure. Gear pumps find applications in industries such as
automotive (for lubricating oil circulation), marine (for fuel transfer), aerospace (for hydraulic
fluid circulation), industrial machinery (for coolant circulation), and oil and gas (for transferring
fluids and fuels).

In conclusion, both lobe pumps and gear pumps are essential components in industrial fluid
handling systems. While lobe pumps excel at handling viscous fluids and delicate solids, gear
pumps are preferred for pumping fluids with low to medium viscosity. The choice between these
pump types depends on factors such as the characteristics of the fluid being pumped, the required
flow rate and pressure, and the specific application requirements.
