Abstract

With the development of the Federal University of Santa Maria (UFSM) campus in the city of Cachoeira do Sul-RS, plans of arborization and landscaping were made, and the need of a constant and reliable water supply for irrigation appeared. Therefore, the hydraulic ram pump was selected to deliver water from the pond, present in the grounds of the campus, to a storage tank for the irrigation system. In this context, this paper addresses a review of studies about the design and manufacture of hydraulic ram pumps and, subsequently, presents the basic design and the fabrication steps of a PVC hydraulic ram pump that is capable of feeding the irrigation system.
