    The document classifies and describes 5 types of rotary pumps: gear pumps which use meshing gears to displace fluid, vane pumps which use vanes mounted on a rotor inside a cavity, lobe pumps which are similar to gear pumps but with lobes that do not contact each other, cam pumps which use an eccentric cam to move a circular plunger and swirl fluid to an outlet port, and screw pumps which are low efficiency but suitable for high pressures and used on submarines.

    Classification of Rotary Pumps:

    1. Gear Pumps: A Gear pump uses the meshing of gears to pump fluid by
    displacement. They are one of the most common types of pumps for hydraulic
    fluid power applications.

    2. Vane Pumps: A rotary vane pump is a positive-displacement pump that consists of


    vanes mounted to a rotor that rotates inside of a cavity. In some cases these vanes
    can be variable length and/or tensioned to maintain contact with the walls as the
    pump rotates.

    3. Lobe Pumps: Lobe pumps are similar to external gear pumps in operation in that
    fluid flows around the interior of the casing. Unlike external gear pumps,
    however, the lobes do not make contact. Lobe contact is prevented by external
    timing gears located in the gearbox.
    4. Cam Pumps: In this model the intake is the lower tube on the right and the outlet
    is at the top. The piston slide arm moves around inside a slot in the casing. As an
    eccentric cam rotates the circular plunger around the edge of the casing, fluid is
    swirled around the edge to the outlet port.
    5. Screw Pumps: Screw pumps for power transmission systems are generally used
    only on submarines. Although low in efficiency and expensive, the
    screw pump is suitable for high pressures (3000 psi), and
    delivers fluid with little noise or pressure pulsation.
