A positive displacement pump causes a liquid or gas to move by trapping a fixed amount of fluid or gas and then forcing (displacing) that trapped volume into the discharge pipe. Positive displacement pumps can be further classified as either rotary-type (for example the rotary vane) or lobe pumps similar to oil pumps used in car engines.Moreover,these pumps give a non pulsating output or displacement unlike the reciprocating pumps and hence are called positive displacement pumps
Gear pumps are the most common type in that service.
In positive displacement machines a fluid is forced into or out of chamber by changing the volume of the chamber.
no
yes.only positive displacement pumps can be used in hydraulics
Gear Pump.Additional answerI very much doubt if gear pumps are used in any petrol car because of the lack of lubrication. Much more likely is a diaphragm pump, which is certainly used on a lot of cars.
both gear pump and reciprocating pumps are positive displacement pumps.but the different is gear pump rotary type.reciprocating pump moves liner motion.the piston moves up and down in straight line.
Well it is very important factor in fluid mechanics. The term comes often in compressors and Pumps. Displacement means change of place( Fluid ), Positive displacement means at all points of operating the discharge will be the same where as the discharge in non positive displacement varies at various operating points. For clear idea on the above compare the reciprocating pump with centrifugal pump at various operating points (by throttling) discharge valve).

generally, centrifugal pumps are high discharge, low pressure generating pumps. to increase the pressure generated it is setup in stages wherein pressure increases from one stage to an other.mostly seen in daily life applications such as pumps for water tankers. even emergency fire fighter vehicles use these type of pumps. these are called dynamic or non-positive displacement pumps.
Types of Pumps Used by Chemical Industries The Centrifugal Pump. By far the most common type of pump in this industrial sector, centrifugal pumps are based on a well-recognized operational principle. Helical Screw Pumps. Positive Displacement Devices. Diaphragm Pumps.
A gear pump uses the meshing of gears to pump fluid by displacement.[1] They are one of the most common types of pumps for hydraulic fluid power applications. Gear pumps are also widely used in chemical installations to pump fluid with a certain viscosity. There are two main variations; external gear pumps which use two external spur gears, and internal gear pumps which use an external and an internal spur gear. Gear pumps are positive displacement (or fixed displacement), meaning they pump a constant amount of fluid for each revolution. Some gear pumps are designed to function as either amotor or a pump.

yes
Unfortunately, I'm unable to provide sketches. However, pumps can be classified into categories such as centrifugal pumps, which use rotating impellers to create flow, and positive displacement pumps, which trap fluids in a cavity and then push them out. Another category is axial flow pumps, where the fluid flows parallel to the axis of rotation. Each type of pump has its own unique application and operating principles.
positive displacement pumps will always be more efficient than centrifugal pumps due to a centrifugals inherent internal fluid slip recirculation and losses.

gear pump, crescent gear pump, axial-piston pump, radial-piston pump, linear-piston pump, & vane pump Also, fuel injection pumps such as linear piston pumps and rotary piston pumps.
because they deliver a fixed quantity of the discharge irrespective of their rpm
One would use a laser displacement sensor when positioning objects, for example, the laser will give positive displacement when an object moves away and a negative displacement when the object is getting closer.
