Effects of impeller shape of submersible nonclogging pump on its performance
Description
This study was performed to develop a high efficiency submersible nonclogging pump impeller. Toward this end, we simulated the effect of some parameters such as the outlet position of a blade (ℎΙ), outlet width of a blade (b2), and hub profile on the pump efficiency by using the commercial codes ANSYS CFX and BladeGen. The results showed that the pump efficiency was proportional up to ℎΙ and b2 in the simulated ranges. The effects of hub profile changes on the pump efficiency were relatively small compared to those of the other parameters
