The semi-rotary pump, shown in Figure 3.28, is a half-bread devicewhich utilizes both rotary and reciprocating motions. A vane, very similarto the bucket-piston (i.e., with flap valve(s)) is rotated through anarc in a circular casing which also contains a check valve(s) fixed to thecasing . As the vane is alternately rotated in opposite directions, eachset of fixed- and vane-check valves suctions and discharges a unit of water.To avoid wasting energy, most semi-rotary pumps are double-acting, asin Figure 3.28, and several such pumps may be attached to the same drivingshaft. This pump is usually limited to small-capacity, domestic applicationsand is normallyoperated by manual power.3.4 Miscellaneous MethodsAs previously mentioned, a few water lifting methods exist which donot fit, either individually or collectively, into any of the establishedclasses. However, since they exhibit primarily positive displacementcharacteristics, they are appropriately considered in this chapter.3.4.1 Hydraulic RamWhen a pumping site is available which has an excess water supplywith sufficient potential energy (i.e., elevation head), the hydraulicram can be used to make water power lift water. As illustrated in Figure3.29, the ram utilizes a flow of water from a source above it to drive asmaller discharge of water to an elevation above the source. In Figure3.29, water flows down the drive pipe, into the ram and out the wastevalve until the water velocity is sufficient to provide enough momentum toclose the waste valve. The water is then forced through the check-valveand into the air chamber. This rush of water continues into the chamber
