{wiki=Hydraulic_rams}
A hydraulic ram is a type of water pump that uses the principles of hydrodynamics to lift water without the use of external power sources. It operates using a mechanism known as the hydraulic ram pump, which harnesses the kinetic energy of flowing water to generate a pressure surge, allowing some of the water to be raised to a higher elevation. \#\#\# Key Components and Working Principle: 1. **Inlet**: Water enters the pump through an inlet valve, which typically opens and closes automatically.
