An energy-saving pump, and control system for the pump comprises: a pump body arranged to receive steam from a steam generator; a steam transferor for opening/closing a pipeline between the pump body and the steam generator; and a suction valve for opening/closing a pipeline between the pump body and a water source, wherein the steam transferor is closed to receive steam and then the suction valve is opened to suction water from the water source.

The present disclosure is directed to a fluid separating flow nozzle which has a diffuser housing configured to be secured to a source of compressed fluid, and a diffuser element secured within a portion of the diffuser housing. The diffuser element may have at least one flow path opening forming a flow path through the flow nozzle, a nose portion and a moisture capturing area adjacent the nose portion for capturing moisture particles when a first airflow is directed through the flow nozzle in a first direction. A flow turning element may be incorporated which has a plurality of flow turning structures, and which is in communication with the flow path opening, and which imparts a turning motion to the first airflow and also to a second airflow flowing in a direction opposite to the first airflow. The turning motion helps to displace and eject moisture particles from the nose portion and from the moisture capturing area while the second airflow is occurring.
