A gear pump is a type of positive displacement pump that uses meshing gears to pump fluid. It consists of two gears, typically of equal size, rotating in opposite directions within a pump casing. As the gears mesh, they create chambers that increase and decrease in volume, which results in the displacement of fluid from the inlet to the outlet of the pump.
Gear pumps are commonly used in various applications such as lubrication systems, hydraulic power units, and chemical processing. They are known for their simple design, compact size, and ability to handle high pressures and viscous fluids. However, they are not well-suited for pumping fluids containing abrasive particles, as these particles can damage the gear teeth and cause premature failure of the pump.
