If the pressure in the cylinder is below the vapour pressure , dissolved gasses

will be liberated from the liquid and cavitations will takes place . The continuous flow of liquid will not exit which means separation of liquid takes place. The pressure at which separation takes place is called separation pressure and head corresponding to the separation pressure is called separation pressure head.

Is receiprocating pump advantageous or centrifugal pupm?

A reciprocating pump is an advantageous pump. Centrifugal pumps convert energy into rotation to power themselves. A reciprocating pump uses a back and forth linear motion.


How does a windmill pump water?

As the reciprocating pump operates through the reciprocation of the follower, it guides the suction and the compression of the water in the pipe. That's so when the rotary motion of the rotor blade is converted into the reciprocating motion, which delivers it to the reciprocating pump, the suction and discharge takes place.
