Based on the Reynolds time-averaged N-S equations and standard k-ε two-equation turbulent mode, using multiple reference model and wall function method, the inner flow fields were simulated which is a part of three different kinds of impeller on stamping and welding multistage centrifugal pump by CFD software FLUENT. The characteristic of internal flow on multistage pump was analyzed base on the calculated results, so as to reveal how the flow regulation influences performance of pump. The result shows the internal flow condition in the distort-type impeller pump is more reasonable than the other two groups, there is not the flagrant whirlpool and the capability of cavitation-resistant is strong.
Based on the Renault-averaged Navier-Stokes equations and a standard turbulence model, the different clearance of the outer edge on the impeller and the draft-tube is simulated by the commercial software CFX, in order to achieve optimal performance. The velocity distributions and pressure distributions within the stamping and welding multistage centrifugal pumps are analyzed. The reasonable clearance value which impact on its performance and properties have been discovered. This paper is helpful to improve the design theory of stamping and welding multistage centrifugal pumps.
