I am looking for SPECIFIC design information for ram pumps. All of
my internet searches turn up general information or designs for
particular ram pumps, but they do not give me the information I need
to design and build a pump customized to my situation. I see 2 books
listed on this site:
A Manual on the Hydraulic Ram for Pumping Water
author S.B. Watt
Hydraulic rams - a comparative investigation
author J. Tacke
Can anyone recommend either of these for my needs?
My particulars are:
Drive head=7 feet
drive volume= 500 gpm
delivery head= 75 feet
delivery pipe (now in place)= 500 feet of 2 inch pvc
I want to get maximum delivery from this. I am assuming, perhaps
wrongly, that ram pump will be the best method but perhaps there are
more efficient ways to harness this power for pumping water.
