What are characteristic values for a piston pump?
Engineering Asked by John H. K. on April 20, 2021
For a piston pump you can calculate/measure things like,
- Average Volume flow rate (m³/s)
- Geometric Values (Surface)
- Pressure over time
- closing times of the valves
- energy conversion efficiency $eta$
besides those, what charateristic values are there?
(example of a type of piston pump source)
One Answer
Here are some other criteria:
- Cycle time
- Piston speed
- Piston friction
- Device lifespan (most likely a function of the number of cycles completed)
- Number of suction/discharge ports
- Type of valves used
Hope that helps!
