Water Jet Pump Working

A pump jet hydrojet or water jet is a marine system that produces a jet of water for propulsion the mechanical arrangement may be a ducted propeller axial flow pump a centrifugal pump or a mixed flow pump which is a combination of both centrifugal and axial designs the design also incorporates an intake to provide water to the pump and a nozzle to direct the flow of water out of the pump.

Water jet pump working.

The suction is created by producing a vacuum. Jet water well pumps work by suction. An electric motor drives an impeller that forces water through a small opening or jet. Jet pumps are mounted above the well either in the home or in a well house and draw the water up from the well through suction see single drop jet pump system diagram on next page.

The surface pumping equipment and the downhole jet pump. There is a nozzle at the opening of the pipe. The working principle of a jet pump depends on the bernoulli theory. In the surface the reciprocating pump transfers energy to the fluid increases its pressure drove through surface piping production tubing or annular space until the jet pump placed on.

Jet pump working principle. The working principle of this pump is somewhat different from that of the centrifugal pump or other types of rotary pumps. This increases the velocity of the water and when it exits the jet it creates the vacuum that creates the suction.
