Water Pump Pressure: Investigating Load Failure in Engine Systems

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the pressure levels within an engine's water pump, specifically regarding load failure investigations. It notes that a typical radiator cap can handle around 12 PSI before releasing pressure into the overflow tank. The conversation emphasizes that there is likely minimal differential pressure between the water pump's input and output. A resource is shared for further information on pump pressure, highlighting a fluid mechanics library. Understanding these pressure dynamics is crucial for diagnosing engine cooling system issues.

Hi,,
I want to ask you about how much pressure inside the water pumb for the engine??,

because I want to investigate the load failure?
 
Engineering news on Phys.org
Pretty vague question. In the automotive world the radiator cap will withstand about 12 PSI before the cap relieves pressure and dumps into the overflow tank. There isn't likley a lot of differential between input and output pressure of the water pump.
 
Thank you my friend ,,,

vague!
 
I can give you a usefull website where you can find about pressure inside a pump :
look at this library.

Thread 'Turbocharging carbureted petrol 2 stroke engines'
Hi everyone, online I ve seen some images about 2 stroke carbureted turbo (motorcycle derivation engine). Now.. In the past in this forum some members spoke about turbocharging 2 stroke but not in sufficient detail. The intake and the exhaust are open at the same time and there are no valves like a 4 stroke. But if you search online you can find carbureted 2stroke turbo sled or the Am6 turbo. The question is: Is really possible turbocharge a 2 stroke carburated(NOT EFI)petrol engine and...
I need some assistance with calculating hp requirements for moving a load. - The 4000lb load is resting on ball bearing rails so friction is effectively zero and will be covered by my added power contingencies. Load: 4000lbs Distance to travel: 10 meters. Time to Travel: 7.5 seconds Need to accelerate the load from a stop to a nominal speed then decelerate coming to a stop. My power delivery method will be a gearmotor driving a gear rack. - I suspect the pinion gear to be about 3-4in in...
