Theoretical discharge of gear wheel pump Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Theoretical Discharge = Actual discharge of a pump/Volumetric efficiency of a pump
Q_th = Q_act/η_vol
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Theoretical Discharge - (Measured in Meter³ per Second) - The Theoretical Discharge is given by the theoretical area and velocity.
Actual discharge of a pump - (Measured in Meter³ per Second) - Actual discharge of a pump is the actual amount of liquid pumped out in a minute.
Volumetric efficiency of a pump - Volumetric efficiency of a pump is the ratio of actual discharge to the theoretical discharge.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Actual discharge of a pump: 5 Cubic Meter per Minute --> 0.0833333333333333 Meter³ per Second (Check conversion here)
Volumetric efficiency of a pump: 100 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Q_th = Q_act/η_vol --> 0.0833333333333333/100

Evaluating ... ...

Q_th = 0.000833333333333333

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

0.000833333333333333 Meter³ per Second --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

0.000833333333333333 Meter³ per Second <-- Theoretical Discharge

(Calculation completed in 00.016 seconds)

How does a gear pump work?

Gear pumps work by trapping fluid between the teeth of two or three rotating gears. Often, they are magnetically driven, which means they use less “wetted” materials for greater chemical compatibility. Gear pumps move a cavity that rotates rather than reciprocates.

Which pump uses a gear to pump the fluid?

A gear pump uses the meshing of gears to pump fluid by displacement. They are one of the most common types of pumps for hydraulic fluid power applications. The gear pump was invented around 1600 by Johannes Kepler. Gear pumps are also widely used in chemical installations to pump high viscosity fluids.
