In order to study the influence of a balance hole’s diameter on cavitation performance low specific-speed centrifugal pumps, pump with specific speed 0.301 was selected as research object. The pump’s performance, distribution vapor in impeller, and axial force impeller were studied change diameters holes. results show that increase holes, number σ3% became small, pressure mechanical seal cavity...

Major industrial sector are using, most pumps are of centrifugal type. Centrifugal pumps are widely used because of their design simplicity, high efficiency & low maintenance. Modern centrifugal pumps are not complex machines. Despite the simplicity of design and production, centrifugal pumps are still capable of posing complex puzzles during their operation. The performance of a pump must be m...

The dissipation rate of turbulent kinetic energy () and shear rate (γ) are the key process parameters for mixing in surface aerators. At constant dynamic variables (rotational speed), both  and γ are greatly affected by the geometric parameters (impeller diameter, cross-sectional area of the tank, liquid height, rotor blade length and immersion height). By doing numerical computation by VISIM...

this paper tries to determine an optimum condition for the flotation operation of the alborz-sharghi coal washing plant. for this purpose, a series of comprehensive experiments have been conducted on representative samples from feed of the flotation system of the plant. four operational variables such as the collector dosage (fuel oil), the frother dosages (mibc), the pulp density percent and t...

modern hydrometallurgical techniques have been adopted to produce high-purity gold. many extractants were used for the extraction of gold from various synthetic solutions from which dibutyl carbitol (dbc) had a unique superiority. kinetics of process was studied in this paper and the influence of several parameters such as stirring speed, agitation time, impeller type, interfacial area, [aucl4]...

Oil-water emulsion flow behaviour was characterized with respect to surface chemistry. A state of the art stirred tank experimental set up was constructed that measured dynamic droplet size evolution with varying impeller speed. This technique was demonstrated with model Nexbase oil (with and without SPAN 80 surfactants) and water emulsions. Further, a CFD model for droplet size prediction was ...

We study the influence on steady turbulent states of the forcing in a von Karman flow, at constant impeller speed, or at constant torque. We find that the different forcing conditions change the nature of the stability of the steady states and reveal dynamical regimes that bear similarities to low-dimensional systems. We suggest that this forcing dependence may be applicable to other turbulent ...

To explore the influence of tip clearance on pressure fluctuation in a low specific speed mixed-flow pump, tip clearances δ of 0.25 mm, 0.75 mm and 1.00 mm, along with no tip clearance, were selected. The reliability of the simulation was verified by comparison with the experimental data of external characteristics and fluctuation in the guide vane passage. Through ANSYS-CFX, MATLAB code and fa...
