Pump design

Pump design involves creating a device that moves fluids—liquids or gases—from one place to another efficiently and reliably. It includes selecting the right type of pump (such as centrifugal or reciprocating), determining appropriate materials to handle the fluid’s properties, and designing components like impellers, shafts, and seals to withstand pressure and wear. Engineers focus on optimizing flow rate, energy efficiency, and durability while ensuring safety and ease of maintenance. Proper pump design ensures consistent fluid transfer in applications ranging from industrial processes to household plumbing, balancing performance with cost and longevity.
