Difference between pump and compressor
A pump is a machine that transports liquids or pumps liquids. It transfers mechanical energy or other external energy of the prime mover to the liquid, increasing the energy of the liquid. The pump is mainly used to transport water, oil, acid and alkali liquid, emulsion, suspension emulsion and liquid metal, and also can transport liquid, gas mixture and liquid containing suspended solid. Pump can usually be divided into three types of displacement pumps, power pumps and other types of pumps according to the principle of operation. In addition to classification according to the working principle, it can be classified and named according to other methods. For example, according to the driving method can be divided into the electric pump and the turbine pump; according to the structure can be divided into single-stage pump and multistage pump; use can be divided into the boiler feed pump and the metering pump; according to the nature of transmission fluid can be divided into water pump, oil pump and mud pump etc.. In accordance with the non axial structure, can be divided into linear pumps and traditional pumps.
Working principle：The impeller is installed in the pump casing and is fastened on the pump shaft 3, and the pump shaft is directly driven by the motor. There is a liquid suction in the center of the pump shell, and 4 is connected with the suction pipe 5. The liquid through the bottom valve 6 and the suction tube into the pump.The liquid discharge port 8 on the pump housing is connected with the discharge pipe 9. Before the pump starts, the pump shell is filled with the liquid to be transported; after starting, the impeller is driven by the shaft to rotate at high speed, and the liquid between the blades must also rotate. Under the influence of centrifugal force, the liquid is thrown from the center of the impeller to the outer edge and obtains energy, and leaves the outer edge of the impeller at high speed to enter the volute pump shell.
In the spiral case, the liquid slows down due to the gradual enlargement of the flow passage, and the part of kinetic energy is converted to static pressure, and finally flows into the exhaust pipe at higher pressure and is sent to the required place. When the liquid flows from the center of the impeller to the outer edge, a vacuum is formed at the center of the impeller. As the pressure at the upper level of the tank is greater than the pressure at the pump inlet, the liquid is continuously pressed into the impeller. Visible, as long as the impeller continues to rotate, the liquid will continue to be inhaled and discharged.The working principle of the linear pump is different from that of any other pump. It adopts the principle of magnetic suspension and the hydraulic structure of the spiral ring to realize liquid propulsion, that is, to cancel the shaft, to cancel the shaft connection, and to cancel the sealing structure of the shaft. After starting, the electric current is transformed into a magnetic field, and the magnetic field force drives the spiral ring to move, namely, the spiral ring promotes the liquid advance.Compressor (compressor), a driven fluid machine that promotes low-pressure gas as a high pressure gas, is the heart of a refrigeration system. It is of low temperature and low pressure refrigerant gas suction pipe from the suction, through the operation of the motor drives the piston to compress it after high temperature and high pressure refrigerant gas discharge pipe to the exhaust, to provide power for the refrigeration cycle, so as to realize the compression and condensation (exothermic), expansion and evaporation (endothermic) refrigeration cycle.
