In _________pumps, the energy of the fluid is converted into velocity energy.

In _________pumps, the energy of the fluid is converted into velocity energy. Correct Answer jet

In jet pumps, a high velocity jet is produced in a nozzle where the energy of the fluid is converted into velocity energy. Jet pumps have low efficiencies but they have no moving parts and therefore have low initial costs.
