    SINGLE EFFECT RECIPROCATING PUMP

    :OBJECTIVES

    .To know how a reciprocating pump work.1

    .To calculate the actual discharge flow rate.2

    .To calculate the theoretical discharge flow rate.3

    .To calculate the volumetric efficiency.4

    .To calculate the slip and slip percent.5

    :THEORY

    Pump is mechanical device to increase the pressure energy of the


    .fluid

    Broadly pump can be classified as centrifugal pump or positive displacement


    .pumps

    Reciprocating pump is one kind of the positive displacement pumps and it


    known (positive displacement pump) because in it liquid is pushed out of
    .the cylinder by the actual displacement of the piston or plunger

    A reciprocating pump is driven by power available from an external source


    .and consists of a cylinder in which piston or plunger reciprocates

    This movement of the piston or plunger creates alternately vacuum


    .presser and positive presser in the cylinder in which raises the water

    If water acts only on one side of the piston the pump is known as (single
    .acting pump) fig (1) shows this type of pump

    These pumps suck the water into the cylinder during outward
    stroke, in this stroke atmospheric pressure acting on the surface of the
    water helps to push the water into the cylinder. During inward stroke the
    suction valve closes and the water is forced up in the delivery pipe. The
    construction and working of a single acting reciprocating pump is shown in
    fig (1)

    FIG (1) - reciprocating pump

    The working of the reciprocating pump can be easily understood with


    the help of above figure, the piston moves backward and forward in the
    cylinder due to the rotation of the crank, during outward stroke, piston
    moves to the right, and this movement of the piston causes vacuum in the
    .cylinder
    :TYPES OF RECIPROCATING PUMP

    :According to the action of water-1

    .a-Single acting

    .b-Double acting

    :According to the number of cylinders-2

    .a-Single cylinder

    .b-Double cylinder

    .c-Triple cylinder

    :According to the existence of air vessel-3

    .a - With air vessel

    .b-Without vessel

    :CALCULATION

    Ƞ V =Q act/Q the

    Q act = V/T

    Q the = A x L x N x Z

    Slip = Q the – Q act
