Ram Pump

...

Our goal this semester is to continue improving the ram pump's design and to establish guidelines for optimization. We will be focused on designing a method of containment, attempting at scaling the entire system, and stabilizing the pump. We will conduct experiments to test the effect of the order of components, weights used, size of air chamber, and long-term runs on the efficiency of the system (based on flow rate, pressure, head loss, etc.). Our overlying goal is to establish a close-to-final design of ram pump.
