Some of the comparison between positive displacement(Hydrostatic) pump and Non-positive displacement(Hydrodynamic) pumps are as follows.
Positive displacement Pump | Non- Positive displacement Pump |
a. The discharge doesn't vary irrespective of outlet resistance. | a. The discharge varies according to resistance at outlet of pump |
b. Efficiency of this pump is higher in-comparison with non positive displacement pump | b. Efficiency of this pump is low in-comparison with positive displacement pump. |
c. The pump generates high pressure. | c. The pressure generation is comparatively low. |
d. Fluid flow per cycle is mostly maintained | d. Fluid flow per cycle varies. |
e. Negligible gap between rotating and stationary element. | e. Gap between rotating and stationary element |
f. Pump uses change in volume inside the pump to cause fluid flow. | f. Pump uses inertia of fluid to cause fluid flow. |
g. There is no slippage in the output of the pump. | g. There will be slippage in the output of the pump. |
Example: Gear pump, screw pump, vane pump | Example: Centrifugal pump and axial pump |
