Development for Stamped WATER PUMP (Innovative Structure WATER PUMP)
SAE Technical Paper Series, 2006<div class="htmlview paragraph">Requirements for weight reduction, downsizing and cost reduction have been increasing on automobile components. The same can be said for water pumps. However, significant weight reduction, downsizing and cost reduction have been big issues with conventional structure water pumps because these issues had been ...

Abstract The principles of solar water pumping are briefly described. The mechanical energy needed for pumping water may be produced by thermodynamic, or direct-conversion methods. In thermodynamic conversion a fluid with high internal energy is produced in solar collectors or concentrators. The internal energy of the fluid may be utilized in Rankine-

Conransporters as molecular water pumps
2002Molecular water pumps are membrane proteins of the cotransport type in which a flux of water is coupled to substrate fluxes by a mechanism within the protein. Free energy can be exchanged between the fluxes. Accordingly, the flux of water may be relatively independent of the external water chemical potential and can even proceed uphill. In short, water

Cuticular Water Pump in Insects
Nature, 1967AMONG the ways in which terrestrial arthropods can control their environmental water relations, the active retention of water1, the regulation of water loss2, and the active uptake of atmospheric water3 have been found to be concerned with the movement of water through the cuticle.

There is good evidence that cotransporters of the symport type behave as molecular water pumps, in which a water flux is coupled to the substrate fluxes. The free energy stored in the substrate gradients is utilized, by a mechanism within the protein, for the transport of water.

Abstract The left-way cyclic process, introduced in the preceding paper, is described for obtaining water out of air. Two working methods are utilized. The first one delivers drinking water out of air without any service, maintenance, etc. The second method requires opening a cover above the absorbent during the evening.

A current-driven nanometer water pump
Nanotechnology, 2016The design of a water pump, which has huge potential for applications in nanotechnology and daily life, is the dream of many scientists. In this paper, we successfully design a nanometer water pump by using molecular dynamics simulations. Ions of either sodium or chlorine in a narrow channel will generate electric current under electric fields, which ...

Seal Lubrication of an Automotive Water Pump
Tribology, 2006A noisy mechanical seal is a grave problem, especially in water pumps designed for the automotive industry. The noisiness is often caused by dynamic instability (stick-slip behavior), which occurs when the seal lubrication changes from hydrodynamic to mixed.
