                       2.1       Hydraulic Pump


                       Hydraulic  pumps  convert  mechanical  energy,  such  as  the  rotations  of  motors  or

                       engines,  to  fluid  energy.  They  are  called  positive  displacement  pumps  and  are
                       distinguished from the centrifugal types, such as water pumps and fans, because flow

                       and pressure energies are generated in a closed space. Table 2-1 shown comparison

                       of pump in hydraulic system.
