Before we understand what types of pumps exist, it’s essential to have a basic understanding of what a pump is. The pump uses mechanical energy to move fluids, liquids, gases, or slurries from one location to another. They are used in various applications, from industrial processes to everyday domestic needs. Pumps come in different shapes …
Fire hydrants are present in most areas of residential and commercial properties. When you walk in along residential areas, you’re likely to see them close to the walkways.

The pumps are used all over the world for different industrial and household applications. There are multiple types of pumps. Centrifugal pumps and positive displacement pumps are most widely used types of pumps, and both of them have a different working method. Positive displacement and centrifugal pumps are the best ideal devices for moving fluids …
Valves are used with hydraulic or pneumatic system to direct and regulate the fluid flow. It is simply a obstacle which control the fluid flow by its full or partial opening. There are many types of mechanical valves which works on mainly three method to operate a valve. These are : Manual operated valve, Hydraulic …
Today we will learn more about Metacenter and Metacentric Height. In our last article we have discussed about what is buoyancy and buoyancy force which a body experienced when it is submerged or immersed in any fluid. We have also noticed that when we see a ship or boat or any floating body, it oscillate …
Today we will discuss about buoyancy force or simply called buoyancy effect. When a body is immersed or submersed in a fluid of different density an upward direction force act on it. This force is called buoyancy. When a body floats in water it is acted upon by two forces Vertical downward force of gravity …
When a body is moving with a velocity in a fluid making some angle with the stream line of the fluid flow experiences some force acting on the body. The component of force acting along the stream line is called Drag and the component of force acting orthogonal (perpendicular) to the stream line is called …
Today we will learn about turbojet engine. Turbojet engine is an Gas Turbine Engine in which working fluid will be gas or air. The gas turbine is an internal combustion engine that uses gases or air as a working fluid to rotate the turbine. This engine takes chemical from the fuel storage and mixes with …
