As a key part of the power machine, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) impeller is widely used in aerospace field, and it plays a very important role in the national defense industry. Impeller in the work of higher speed, centrifugal force and aerodynamic force effect on the impeller at the same time, so that the impeller is easy to failure, a serious impact on the use of performance and life of the...

The Gyro centrifugal pump, developed as a totally implantable artificial heart, was designed with a free impeller in which the rotational shaft (male bearing) of the impeller was completely separated from the female bearing. For this type of pump, it is very important to keep the proper magnet balance (impeller-magnet and actuator-magnet balance) to prevent thrombus formation or bearing wear. W...

A nite element based method has been developed for computing time-averaged uid-induced radial excitation forces and rotor dynamic forces on a two-dimensional centrifugal impeller rotating and whirling in a volute casing. In this method potential ow theory is used, which implies the assumption of irrotational inviscid ow. In comparison with other analyses of uid-induced impeller forces, two main...

Flow through mixed flow compressor stage was evaluated theoretically to understand internal flow behaviour. Various shroud configurations in terms of clearance has been considered to see the effect of clearance on compressor performance. The blade to blade relative flow variation from impeller inlet to outlet was evaluated through theoretical analysis. A 3D viscous commercial code Fluent was us...

Despite the progresses in developing pulsatile impeller pump and impeller total heart, as well as in applying streamlined impeller vanes, the best results in application of artificial heart pumps have been achieved by nonpulsatile univentricular assist pump with straight impeller vanes until now. It seems all efforts and successes have been done in vain because artificial heart rejects Hi-Tech!...

The components of blower are composed of motor and impeller. Motors transform electric energy into mechanical rotating kinetic energy and this rotating kinetic energy produces flow through impeller. And thus blower is divided into motor and impeller. In actual development and study, the process of system formation is followed generally by joining the two independent research results. This study...

Experimental work was carried out to investigate the influence of impeller speed, granulation time, binder mass and their interactions on granule size distribution, mean size and binder content distribution in a conical high shear granulator. It was observed that the response of high shear granulation to changes in process parameters varies significantly from one operating condition to anot...

Impeller trimming is a proper way to alter the performance of centrifugal pump with a constant speed so as to meet the demand on the specified flow rate and head in pumping systems. The affinity law accounting for the impeller trimming is the key relation to determine the pump performance with a trimmed impeller. There seems no experimental study dealing with such an affinity law for centrifuga...

Pressure fluctuation may cause high amplitude of vibration of double‐suction centrifugal pumps, but the impact of impeller stagger angles is still not well understood. In this paper, pressure fluctuation experiments are carried out for five impeller configurations with different stagger angles by using the same test rig system. Results show that the stagger angles exert negligible effects on th...

The paper has established sixteen design schemes for super-low specific speed centrifugal pump compound impeller with orthogonal method, based on the main factors impacting the design of compound impeller, like short blades number of compound impeller, the relative position of blade radial inlet, blade circumferential bias degree, deflection angle, etc.,. By numerical simulation, the optimal de...
