Pumps and pump components |
摘要 |
An electrostatic pump or pumping liquids having a resistivity in the range of 1010 to 107 ohm cm has a pump housing. The pump housing includes a passageway through which the liquid is pumped, and a single injection electrode disposed upstream of the passageway. The electrode has a sharp electrically-conducting tip. A constriction in the region of the tip is shaped to conform to the surface configuration of the tip so that the liquid flows pass the tip in a laminar nonturbulent fashion through an orifice of reduced cross-section. The constriction is so dimensioned as to provide a high resistance path. A chamber is disposed downstream of the constriction and is of larger cross-section than the constriction. A discharged electrode is disposed in the chamber and is separated from the injection electrode by the chamber and the constriction. The injection and discharge electrodes are coupled to a high voltage generator to maintain an electric potential between the electrodes on the order of kilovolts.
