In order to improve the hydraulic performance of the centrifugal pump, based on the original model, the optimization mathematical model with the four indexes head, efficiency, shaft power, and pump net positive suction head as objective function was established, and the multiobjective optimization design of the centrifugal pump was carried out by orthogonal test. Based on the L 16 (4 4 ) orthogonal table, 16 sets of orthogonal test schemes were made by selecting the four parameters impeller outlet width, blade inlet angle, blade outlet angle, and cape angle; the flow field numerical simulation was carried out by computational fluid dynamics technique; and the influence order of geometric parameters on optimization indexes was obtained by range analysis. e weight of each test factor on the optimization index was calculated by weight matrix, and a set of optimal schemes was obtained. Based on the external characteristic experimental bench of the IH 65-60-190 chemical centrifugal pump, the simulation values and test values of the prototype pump and the optimization pump were obtained under different working conditions. Under the rated flow, the head was reduced by 17.00%, the efficiency was increased by 9.14%, the shaft power was reduced by 21.50%, the pump net positive suction head was reduced by 16.69%, the curve hump was eliminated, the performance of centrifugal pump was improved, and the feasibility of the weight matrix optimization method was verified. e particle image velocimetry measurement system was used to measure the relative velocity of the internal media in the centrifugal pump. e results showed that the optimization pump had no obvious "jet-wake" flow structure, its maximum velocity was less than the prototype pump, the area of low-speed zone was larger than the prototype pump, the efficiency of the centrifugal pump was improved, and the shaft power and pump net positive suction head were reduced. e reason of the head decrease was analyzed from the internal flow situation, and the accuracy of the design optimization process was proved.
In view of the problems of low efficiency, poor anticavitation performance, and curve hump for current centrifugal pump in the process of desulfurization and dust removal, the desulfurization dust removal centrifugal pump was designed. e velocity coefficient method was used for hydraulic design of centrifugal pump, and the three-dimensional modeling and numerical simulation of flow field of centrifugal pump were carried out by using computational fluid dynamics technology (CFD). e optimal mathematical model with the highest efficiency and the lowest pump net positive suction head (NPSH r ) as the objective function was established under the condition of no curve hump. e immune particle swarm optimization algorithm was used to optimize the multiobjective function, and the optimal combination of the main parameters was obtained. e simulation results showed that, compared with the traditional centrifugal pump, the performance of the optimized centrifugal pump had been greatly improved, which eliminated the phenomenon of curve hump. Based on IH model chemical pump to build a prototype test platform, the experimental results of the external characteristics of the prototype pump and the optimization pump under different working conditions were obtained. At the rated flow rate, the optimization pump efficiency was increased by 13.30%, the head was increased by 11.52%, and NPSH r was decreased by 10.14%. e experimental results showed that the optimized indexes met the design requirements and improved the performance of centrifugal pump. At the same time, the accuracy of the immune particle swarm control method was verified, which provided some reference for the design of desulfurization dust removal centrifugal pump.
