Investigation into Influence of Inlet Prewhirl on Flow Field of Diagonal Impeller with Exit Guide Volute
نویسندگان
چکیده
By means of setting inlet pre-rotator ,the inlet and exit flow field of the diagonal flow impeller with exit guide volute have been measured with 5 holes probe, in different flow conditions, and in the conditions of positive and negative pre-rotating. The expe1iment results are compared with that of without the pre-rotator.

Influence of Prewhirl Angle and Axial Distance on Energy Performance and Pressure Fluctuation for a Centrifugal Pump with Inlet Guide Vanes
The energy performance and pressure fluctuations in a centrifugal pump with inlet guide vanes (IGVs) are investigated experimentally and numerically in a prewhirl angle range of −24◦ to 24◦ and in an axial distance range of 280 mm, 380 mm, and 460 mm. The reliability and accuracy of the numerical method are validated by the satisfactory agreement between the experimental data and numerical resu...
متن کاملCavitating Vortex Flow Generated by a Stationary Volute Casing and a Rotating Centrifugal Impeller
Three devices for treating contaminated water using a cavitating vortex have been developed and tested. The first device uses stationary twin volute casings to generate cavitating vortices. Observation of the collisions among the opposing counter-rotating vortices revealed that their end portions whirl, that the vortices never collide head-on, and that they eventually separate into several smal...
متن کاملPIV measurements of flow in a centrifugal blood pump: time-varying flow.
Measurements of the time-varying flow in a centrifugal blood pump operating as a left ventricular assist device (LVAD) are presented. This includes changes in both the pump flow rate as a function of the left ventricle contraction and the interaction of the rotating impeller and fixed exit volute. When operating with a pulsing ventricle, the flow rate through the LVAD varies from 0-11 L/min dur...
متن کاملInlet and outlet devices for rotary blood pumps.
The purposes of inlet and outlet devices for rotary blood pumps, including inducers and diffusers for axial pumps, inlet and exit volutes for centrifugal pumps, and inlet and outlet cannulas, are to guide the blood into the impeller, where the blood is accelerated, and to convert the high kinetic energy into pressure after the impeller discharge, respectively. The designs of the inlet and outle...
متن کاملNumerical study on the acoustic field of a centrifugal fan and the tonal noise sources
The widespread use of squirrel cage fans, especially in ventilation and home and industrial environments, has led to the formation of many research efforts to improve performance and reduce the sound produced by this type of fan. In the literature, the most important factor in generating sound in this category of fans is the confrontation between the rotor exit flow and the volute of the fan. I...
