  2. Centrifugal pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_pump

    Also, the dimensions of the separating chamber are relatively large. For these reasons this solution is only adopted for small pumps, e.g. garden pumps. More frequently used types of self-priming pumps are side-channel and water-ring pumps. Another type of self-priming pump is a centrifugal pump with two casing chambers and an open impeller.

  3. Jiggle syphon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jiggle_syphon

    A jiggle syphon (or siphon) is the combination of a syphon pipe and a simple priming pump that uses mechanical shaking action to pump enough liquid up the pipe to reach the highest point, and thus start the syphoning action.

  4. Slurry pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slurry_pump

    The self-priming pump draws the slurry to the pump then discharges the material from there. Flooded Suction The flooded suction slurry pump is connected to a tank or hopper and uses gravity to move slurry and liquid from the enclosure. Located at the bottom or below the water, the pump uses the force of gravity to continuously fill the pump and ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pump

    Positive–displacement pumps, however, tend to have sufficiently tight sealing between the moving parts and the casing or housing of the pump that they can be described as self-priming. Such pumps can also serve as priming pumps, so-called when they are used to fulfill that need for other pumps in lieu of action taken by a human operator.

  6. Siphon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siphon

    With the pump, no external suction (e.g. from a person's mouth/lungs) is required to start the siphon and thus the product is described as a "self-siphon". If the upper reservoir is such that the liquid there can rise above the height of the siphon crest, the rising liquid in the reservoir can "self-prime" the siphon and the whole apparatus be ...

    The Economic Stimulus Appropriations Act of 1977 was a stimulus package enacted by the 95th United States Congress and signed into law by President Jimmy Carter on 13 May 1977. The Economic Stimulus Act of 2008, signed on February 13, 2008 by President George W. Bush, was intended to boost the United States economy in 2008.

    A self priming pump that requires the introduction of material outside of its normal operating environment (a submerged pump is obviously self priming as it is naturally submerged in fluid), is not a self priming pump. Sfer144 06:13, 21 February 2023 (UTC)

  9. Hydraulic pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydraulic_pump

    A critical element in vane pump design is how the vanes are pushed into contact with the pump housing, and how the vane tips are machined at this very point. Several type of "lip" designs are used, and the main objective is to provide a tight seal between the inside of the housing and the vane, and at the same time to minimize wear and metal-to ...
