The article is focused on the literature study of determining the capacity of an external gear pump by applying Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) technology. The solution proposed by the authors involves theoretical research and early numerical simulations on the gear pump to evaluate its performance under various conditions such as suction and discharge. The pump housing was modeled using Autodesk Inventor and the simulation was performed with ANSYS software. The theoretical model proposed by the authors is complemented by CFD simulations, which provide insights into how factors such as suction and discharge affect flow. The obtained results through mathematical modeling correlated with the simulations results allows a comprehensive understanding of the pump's behavior and characteristics, thus validating and refining the flow determination model through empirical data.
