The Influence of Water and Mineral Oil On Mechanical Losses in the Displacement Pump for Offshore and Marine Applications

In this paper mechanical losses in a positive displacement pump supplied with water and mineral oil (two liquids having significantly different viscosity and lubricating properties) are described and compared. The experimental tests were conducted by using a prototype satellite pump of a special des...
