  2. Roughing pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roughing_pump

    The term "roughing pump" derives from the vacuum range it works in, "rough vacuum", above 1x10 −3 torr (0.1 Pa). Pumps that operate in the high vacuum ranges typically don't operate, or only operate inefficiently, at atmospheric pressures , whereas pumps that work efficiently at atmospheric pressure usually cannot produce a vacuum lower than ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_engineering

    Vacuum systems usually consist of gauges, vapor jet and pumps, vapor traps and valves along with other extensional piping. A vessel that is operating under vacuum system may be any of these types such as processing tank, steam simulator, particle accelerator, or any other type of space that has an enclosed chamber to maintain the system in less than atmospheric gas pressure.

    Most general pumps can increase as well as decrease the pressure of a gas; however, this category contains pumps that are usually exclusively used to decrease pressure. Wikimedia Commons has media related to Vacuum pumps .

  5. Pump as turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump_As_Turbine

    A pump as turbine (PAT), also known as a pump in reverse, is an unconventional type of reaction water turbine, which behaves in a similar manner to that of a Francis turbine. The function of a PAT is comparable to that of any turbine , to convert kinetic and pressure energy of the fluid into mechanical energy of the runner.

  6. Sorption pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sorption_pump

    The sorption pump is a cyclic pump and its cycle has 3 phases: sorption, desorption and regeneration. In the sorption phase the pump is actually used to create a vacuum. . This is achieved by cooling the pump body to low temperatures, typically by immersing it in a Dewar flask filled with liquid nitro

  7. Turbomolecular pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Turbomolecular_pump

    Most turbomolecular pumps employ multiple stages, each consisting of a quickly rotating rotor blade and stationary stator blade pair. The system is an axial compressor that puts energy into the gas, rather than a turbine, which takes energy out of a moving fluid to create rotary power, thus "turbomolecular pump" is a misnomer.

  9. Hòa Bình Dam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hòa_Bình_Dam

    As this exceeded the demand of northern Vietnam, a 1,487 km north–south high-voltage line had to be constructed. [9] By 2016 the dam accounted for 6% of Vietnam's total electricity output. Each year approximately 10 billion kWh of electricity is generated by the dam, providing around half of the government revenue of Hòa Bình Province . [ 8 ]
