Abstract: Multiport pumps and associated pumping systems are described that provide a selective hydraulic or electrically powered pump/pump system. The pumps provide movement within a device or larger system. Movement can cause compression/expansion of a fluid and provide fluid movement within the same device or system. In this instance, the volume of fluid and the fluid flow path within, from, and to the pump(s) is kept constant to reduce or eliminate cavitation, seizure, and/or hydraulic lock. Use of at least one reservoir comprising; a compensator tank, a port allowing for operation at ambient pressure, and a pressure measuring device measuring pressure allowing for unbalanced flow to and from the multiport pumps along with thermal expansion or compression is detailed.
