A gear pump is shown schematically in FIGURE 1. An input shaft drives a gear that mates with an idler in a housing with a small clearance to the gear. Fluid is conveyed between the gear teeth and squeezed out on the outlet side of the gear pump. List the variables that you expect will affect the performance of a gear pump. Derive an expression for fluid flow as a function of incoming shaft speed.
