Abstract:The sharp decrease in the efficiency of a mixed flow pump within over-load flow rates presents a challenge for coastal drainage pumping stations. To address this issue, two different structures of advanced inlet guide vanes (AIGV), full-adjustable (FA) and half-adjustable (HA) structures, are designed to approach a better energy performance improvement strategy. Entropy production theory is applied into transient flow field to reveal their influence mechanism on the spatial distribution of energy dissipation. … Show more
