Prime mover is a primary source of power. All the machinery that provides power for performing various kinds of mechanical work is prime movers. It is a group of machines that transform various forms of energy such as thermal, electrical or pressure into mechanical energy. Engines, turbines, pumps, actuators, etc. are the examples of prime movers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
On the basis of direction of movement, prime movers may be classified as reciprocating prime movers<\/em> and rotating prime movers.<\/em> Steam engine, reciprocating pump, reciprocating compressors, internal combustion engines, mechanical actuators, etc. are the examples of reciprocating prime <\/a>movers and centrifugal pump, gas turbines, steam turbines, rotary compressors, etc. are the examples of rotating prime movers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Prime mover is a primary source of power.
