gear pump

A device that moves fluid from one location to another is a gear pump or centrifugal pump. Essentially, the device is composed of an external design, dynamic sealing, and a suction side.

External design

Applications involving hydraulic and fluid power use gear pumps just like pressure vessels pump with an external design. Stainless steel is usually used in their construction. They typically self-prime and don't run out of fuel. These pumps are widely used in the mechanical and automotive industries.


The spur gear with an involute tooth profile is the most typical gear architecture for external gear pumps. It is simple to make and has a straightforward mechanism of action. It does have two significant drawbacks, though. The gear has two main drawbacks: first, it is very prone to wear, and second, it forms fluid-trapped pockets between its teeth.


Consequently, a contact ratio limit is established to guarantee continuous meshing. The gear's form diameter and length along the line of contact are used to calculate this.


Choosing the appropriate clearances between the gear's casing and teeth is a crucial design consideration. A process of graphic feedback is used to achieve this.


Numerous investigations have been made to examine the flow inside a gear pump. To investigate how various gears affect the flow, a CFD model is a common tool. It can, for instance, faithfully reproduce the interfaces between various gears, down to the impact of pressure buildup on the teeth.


Determining leaks, particularly in internal designs, can also be helpful. Reducing leaks requires an effective seal.
