<p>A pump assembly comprises a pump with a stationary component (20) and a movable component (10) opposite thereto, which form a substantially wedge-shaped sliding space (50) among each other, in which sliding space a hydrodynamic supporting fluid film with a pressure distribution can build up during operation, with the stationary component (20) comprising an inlet arrangement (30) and an outlet arrangement (40), with the inlet arrangement (30) extending to an area of low pressures of the pressure distribution (110) in the sliding space (50), and with the outlet arrangement (40) extending to an area of high pressures of the pressure distribution (110) in the sliding space (50). A flow sensor produces a flow signal representing the volumetric flow rate of the flow generated by the pump. The flow signal is supplied to a comparator for comparing it with a nominal flow signal and for providing a control signal to an adjustable loading unit for the adjustable loading of the pump to provide an outflow of the pump according to the nominal signal. <IMAGE></p> |
