A Study on Prediction of Cavitation for Centrifugal Pump
In this study, to accurately predict cavitation of a centrifugal pump, numerical analysis was compared with experimental results modeled on a small industrial centrifugal pump. In this study, numerical analysis was compared with experimental results modeled on a small industrial centrifugal pump for reliable prediction on cavitation of a centrifugal pump. To improve validity of the numerical an...
متن کاملNumerical Study of the tongue geometry effects on the cavitation and performance of a centrifugal pump in off-design conditions
In this study, the effects of the volute tongue geometry variation on the head, efficiency, velocity distribution and cavitation structure of a centrifugal pump in the steady flow behavior under off-design conditions have been investigated. Numerical simulation modeling based on the turbulence model with a hybrid grid is used to simulate the flow within the modeled pump. The flow is simulated ...
متن کاملDetecting Cavitation in Centrifugal Pumps
ently Nevada Corporation is continually investigating methods to help our customers protect and manage all their machinery. This includes integrated solutions to address machines of all sizes, speeds, and criticality. Within two of the largest markets that we serve, Hydrocarbon Processing and Power Generation, the most common machine type is the process pump. The vast majority of these pumps ar...
متن کاملThe Rotordynamic Forces on a Centrifugal Pump Impeller in the Presence of Cavitation
An experiment in forced vibration was conducted to study the fluidinduced rotordynamic force on an impeller whirling along a trajectory eccentric to its undeflected position. The prescribed whi l trajectory of the rotor is a circular orbit of a b e d radius. The force measured is a combination of a steady radial force due to volute asymmetries and an unsteady force due to the eccentric motion o...
متن کاملNumerical Simulation of Partial Cavitation over Axisymmetric Bodies: VOF Method vs. Potential Flow Theory
A computational study of partial cavitation over axisymmetric bodies is presented using two numerical methods. The first method is based on the VOF technique where transient 2D Navier-Stokes equations are solved along with an equation to track the cavity interface. Next, the steady boundary element method (BEM) based on potential flow theory is presented. The results of the two methods for a di...
