Development in Performance of Impeller used in Centrifugal Pump by using Computational Fluid Dynamics
نویسنده
چکیده
The increased popularity of centrifugal pumps is due to largely to the comparatively recent development of high speed electric motors, steam turbines and internal combustion engines.To improve the performance of centrifugal pumps by studying the key components like impeller to find the optimum conditions using software. A literature review and lots of development in Computational CFD motivated to find out various methods of improving the efficiency of the pump. From this motivation it is proposed to carryout Numerical Static analysis of Impeller of Centrifugal Pump. It is also proposed to carry out the Design Optimization of Impeller for Centrifugal Pump by using CFD

متن کاملPerformance Improvements of a Centrifugal Pump with Different Impellers using Polymer Additive
In this study, the performance of a centrifugal pump is investigated by adding polyacrylamide (PAM) polymer over the working fluid which is tap water in this case. PAM is a long chain polymer that leads to reduce the wall shear stress and drag in a turbulent fluid. Three different blade profiles including radial, straight backward and circular backward have been examined. For this purpose, a ce...
