Hydraulic drives remain essential across construction, mining, agriculture, marine, and aviation. Their widespread adoption comes from a high power-to-weight ratio,...

Standards Australia is inviting public comment on proposed updates to AS/NZS 5125.1, the performance assessment standard for air source heat...

Pump operators know that impellers face relentless stress. Cavitation, abrasive sediment, and corrosive fluids steadily erode surfaces, raising energy use...

Sediment-laden rivers present a constant challenge for hydropower operators. Erosion of pump turbine components can reduce efficiency, shorten lifespan, and...

This third part of our installation series covers the basis of coupling alignment and the factors affecting misalignment. COUPLING ALIGNMENT:...

Igor Karassik (Google him!) once said that if all the technical papers written about NPSH and cavitation were laid end...

A new model reveals how centrifugal pump energy loss varies with flow rate, heat transfer and rotational speed. What really...

This study of leakage and reverse flow reveals why pressure, speed and trapped volume shape volumetric efficiency pump performance. Efficiency...

A new method for hydraulic pump fault diagnosis improves model accuracy under imbalanced conditions by generating synthetic fault data. In...

The Australian Government is inviting applications for the 2026–2027 bulk hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) import quota. This is part of Australia’s ongoing...
