Centrifugal Pump and Reciprocating Pump

Out of Centrifugal Pump or the Reciprocating Pump, which pump is more efficient?

E

Expert

Verified

Centrifugal pump is more efficient. Since flow rate is higher in comparison to the reciprocating pump. Flow is smooth and also it needs less space in order to install. Lower initial and lower maintenance cost.
