Abstract
A peristaltic pump is a type of positive displacement pump used for pumping a variety of fluids. The fluid is contained within a flexible tube fitted inside a circular pump casing. A rotor with a number of rollers, "shoes" or "wipers" attached to the external circumference compresses the flexible tube. As the rotor turns, the part of the tube under compression closes (or "occludes") thus forcing the fluid to be pumped to move through the tube. Additionally, as the tube opens to its natural state after the passing of the cam ("restitution") fluid flow is induced to the pump. In this paper, basic principle of working and pump design specification has been discussed. The advantages and critical applications have been presented. We considered three concepts for brainstorming and selected one out of three based on the advantages and disadvantages. The theoretical calculations carried out for the flow rate of pump are presented. This prototype consists of Peristaltic pump, coupling and geared car wiper motor and a spring-loaded sensor to automatically turn of the pump (via the motor). It pumps 1.3 cm3 volume of water per second.
