szrszivattyú

The szrszivattyú is a type of water pump that utilizes a screw mechanism to move water. Its design is often attributed to Archimedes, though its specific application in modern pumping systems has evolved over centuries. The core principle involves a helical screw rotating within a casing. As the screw turns, it lifts water from a lower level to a higher level by creating a series of enclosed volumes that move upwards.

These pumps are known for their relatively simple construction and ability to handle solids and viscous fluids without significant clogging. The screw design allows for a continuous flow of water, and the efficiency can be adjusted by altering the pitch and diameter of the screw, as well as the speed of rotation. Szrszivattyú are commonly employed in applications such as drainage, irrigation, and sewage treatment. They are particularly effective in situations where a moderate flow rate is required over a significant height difference. Maintenance is generally straightforward due to the limited number of moving parts. The robust nature of the szrszivattyú makes it a reliable option for various industrial and agricultural uses.
