MFP103B Gear Pump Hydrology Demonstrators Teaching Equipment
GEAR PUMP
For use with the Positive Displacement Pump Module (MFP103) this pump is ideal for student experiments, demonstrations and projects.
The gear pump is a positive displacement pump. It has double gears that deliver a given volume of fluid (oil) for each full rotation of the pump shaft.
The gear rotation generally determines the flow direction, but you only test the pump in one direction, determined by the Universal Dynamometer.
Self-sealing connections reduce oil spillage and simplify installing the pump to the pump module.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
• Performance and characteristics of a gear pump
• Volumetric and overall efficiencies
• Use of an oval gear flowmeter
When two or more optional pumps are ordered:
• Comparison of positive displacement pumps (economy, flow rate and output pressure pulses)
