Description

Efficiency is an important performance indicator of the centrifugal pump, this paper establish three-dimensional model of one high head centrifugal pump in domestic with CFD software, though changing the operating conditions, statistics the calculation efficiency and energy loss under different operating conditions, compare the impact to efficiency and head calculation with steady and unsteady calculation methods, and research the affect when runner in different locations in the centrifugal pump, given and analysis the reasons of the flow field and pressure distribution of runner in different steps.
