There are 3 types of Pumps, positive displacement pumps, centrifugal and axial flow pump

Question

Accepted Answer

There are 3 types of pumps: positive displacement, centrifugal, and axial flow.

Positive displacement pumps move fluid by trapping a fixed amount and forcing it into the discharge pipe.
Centrifugal pumps use a rotating impeller to create a flow of fluid.
Axial flow pumps use propellers to create a flow of fluid parallel to the axis of the pump shaft.
