Abstract: |
It was simulated the flow fields of the CLH-type marine centrifugal pump based on average N-S equations and standard k-ε turbulent model, using the ANSYS CFX12.1 code. With the calculation results, the velocity distribution of the flow field in the centrifugal pump is analyzed under different working conditions. The analogue results, which indicate the relationship between the total head, efficiency, shaft power and flow rate, are compared with performance experimental ones, and it shows that the simulation data coincides with experimental ones in allowable acceptance, which meet the requirements of practical application. Furthermore, in order to analyze the inner flow field distribution in the centrifugal pump in detail, and validate the simulation results, the inner flow field is tested by particle image velocimetry (PIV) measurement. |
