SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRIMING A PUMP |
| 摘要 |
A pump includes a reservoir configured to receive a fluid pressurized by a boost pump. The pump also includes at least one pumping mechanism configured to receive a first flow of fluid from the reservoir and direct the first flow of fluid into a discharge passage of the pump without pumping the first flow of fluid when priming the pump. The at least one pumping mechanism is disposed in the reservoir such that the fluid in the reservoir surrounds at least a portion of the at least one pumping mechanism. The discharge passage is configured to output the first flow of fluid from the pump. The pump further includes a bypass passage configured to communicate a second flow of fluid from the reservoir to the storage tank. |

1. A pump comprising:
a reservoir configured to receive a fluid pressurized by a boost pump; at least one pumping mechanism configured to receive a first flow of fluid from the reservoir and direct the first flow of fluid into a discharge passage of the pump without pumping the first flow of fluid when priming the pump, the at least one pumping mechanism being disposed in the reservoir such that the fluid in the reservoir surrounds at least a portion of the at least one pumping mechanism, the discharge passage being configured to output the first flow of fluid from the pump; and a bypass passage configured to communicate a second flow of fluid from the reservoir to the storage tank. |
